I know deleting extra items are not allowed but this is not an extra item, it was a fluke extra not intentional. Source = 3x sealed examples of this set.

Unfortunately, I'd like to refute the claim of a "fluke". I have the contents
from a sealed version of this set, and I have the extra medal. It can occur inside
the "inner bag" of the blind pack.

Are you more likely to get it or less likely?

Do you have more than 1 example?

That's not the standard.

The one I inventoried from came from Walmart in the USA and I didn't sell
it to LearnedBrick.

Someone (not my customer) messaged me a few days ago to say that they didn't
get the extra in theirs and I told him that all of mine did, but on further thought
I cannot really say all of mine did. I had a case from the United States and
one from Europe, so I opened and sold several of these. I saw others with extras,
but it did not occur to me to ensure that they all had it and I've sold all
I had except mine that I inventoried from.

Ok, this is true. Sometimes I have a hard time wrapping my brain around extra
items, and the need for them.

Well seeing 2 people have them does make a difference and I think it would be
absurd to poll people to see what should or should not be added as an extra.
My case was from Austria and had no extras. I just remembered I had one identified
by feel from the US and opened it, there was an extra...

This request will not be accepted. As has been stated, it has been found in many
sealed sets. By definition, extras do not have to be present in every set in
all markets to be included in an inventory.

Cheers,
Randy

I assumed that would be the case but it did reveal some interesting information
at least. I supposed I was a bit irrational in my initial statement.

I didn't realize that there are different item numbers on the back of the
US vs EU packaging for the series.
