Benny question…

My wife just purchased a sealed Benny for me and when it arrived it was numbered GAS 2012/2000. The story she was told by the seller was "This was hand delivered by Ed to a radio station for a promo giveaway. The guy that sold it to me said he also numbered it. I can't confirm that though. It's #d 2012/2000 so I think he did it as a joke."
Is there anyway to confirm this story?
12/14/91 (DEN); 7/25/92 (DEN/Lolla); 11/27/93 (Boulder); 6/20/95 (DEN/Red Rocks); 6/23/98 (DEN); 9/3/11 (Alpine Valley); 9/4/11 (Alpine Valley); 6/20/12 (Manchester); 6/21/12 (Manchester); 9/30/12 (Missoula); 11/16/13 (OKC); 10/9/14 (Lincoln); 10/22/14 (Denver); 7/9/16 (Telluride); 8/20/16 (Wrigley); 8/22/16 (Wrigley);  8/8/18 (Seattle); 8/10/18 (Seattle); 8/18/18 (Wrigley); 8/20/18 (Wrigley)

    Someone also has received a Benny that was marked with GAS. It was posted over @ http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/179409/benaroya-hall-lps-revised-current-owners-list/p1

    "GAS10": recordjunkie

    Best bet is to contact him to see how he received his marked GAS aswell.

    I won a GAS numbered Benny from a Seattle radio show auction once. Someone at the station that I spoke to told me it was donated by a band member.
