This is one of those coins that was supposedly minted at SF mint based on the band on the monster box?

I don't think anybody really knows where they were minted. Color of the box bands and label serial numbers don't mean diddly squat to me. As far as I'm concerned, if they have no mint mark they were minted in Philadelphia. |

Please stop with the misinformation. You don't have to think it is different, but this is just absurd how misleading what you said was |

No need to be quite so aggressive.
You may be right,
but
CK was just asking.

Yup...bullion minted at SF from a submitted monster box of 500 (#478). I'm not into graded bullion but no huge premium added if you want to add one.

I would like to say I have a full set of American Eagles, less the 1995 w, but I do not consider a label to distinguish another separate coin. Still a nice example of a 2013 bullion issue.

I find the provenance interesting, but not really necessary for a set. I can relate this to the minor variety collectors of other series. You either need/want them or you do not.

There is no discernable difference between the coins that the TPGs label as (S) or (W). The only discernable difference was the package they arrived in at the TPG. The TPGs realized this could be turned into a profit and created the (S) and (W) labels. |

I really can't disagree with that..I said a long time ago that it was a TPG created item and got crap for it.... So collect what you want and enjoy..it won't be in my coin boxes |

The TPGs didn't create it, the US mint did by how they made them

It was a weird attempt to disrupt the market in my opinion and basically everyone was like yes we know that's how they were a P |
