2019 W Burnished ASE declined nearly 6,400 units? What would cause more than a 6% adjustment in a newly issued coin?

When similar coins are submitted to certain grading companies in mass, you can choose to only have higher graded coins, i.e. MS 69s and 70s, graded and encapsulated. The others are returned for a nominal fee, $5 I believe. My guess is that these coins are being returned to the mint to later be sold to unsuspecting customers. This is why I only purchase from the mint on the first day of issue. Just my 2 cents…

The mint shouldn’t be allowed to do that, its robbery one buyer buys 20,000 burnished silver eagles then sends back 6,000 sp69’s and sells the others for $150.00 apiece plus shipping & handling . Its insane to let big companies do that. The mint should sell only encapsulated 70″s that should be why we pay a premium.
