This serial range is incorrect. That last set is #00002237, which I own with a letter from the BEP stating that it is the last set. Also there were many sets between 00000201-00000300. I have owned several.

I'll make a note of it. I'd love to see a picture of the letter from the BEP. I didn't know that they issue those types of letters.
