I see that the San Fran. mint is making ASE's now. They won't have an S mint mark but the sealed boxes will indicate that they came from San Fran.
I'm a little skeptical that these will ever be worth more than a regular ASE, esp. when boxes are 500 quantity. Any thoughts? I expect someone like PCGS will slab individual coins and then maybe there will be collector demand.

PCGS and others are slabbing them and indicating "San Francisco mint" on them. I'm sure there is a slight premium.
Why they have no mint mark baffles me still.

I'm going with any combo of these: they have existing spare sets of dies they don't want to have to change, these are common ASEs and they need the production capacity for common ASEs, they don't want to "dilute" the S mark mysticism, etc.
