That sounds like inventory management more than ownership which do obviously have overlap. But why would having something minted on purchase of say a Rolex be bad? Then when you sell it you could transfer that to the new owner. Showing a chain all the way back to the original purchase. This still has the issue of someone who could come into ownership of a minted item without the object and then try and make a convincing fake but this at first glance sounds like a great way to reduce fakes in the market significantly.
