Can you elaborate? Are you thinking that they were evenly distributed? Like an insert?

This exactly.

I agree that it is entirely possible that some of that print run exists sealed but it is not likely to be very much at this point. We have seen only a couple pulled over the last 15 years since the code for their creation was cracked on a forum and more collectors jumped into the hunt (covid also caused this stuff to get broken like crazy).
