'In mint condition' is an idiom which derives from the state of freshly minted coins. We all know that after a while, coins that are in use, lose the sharpness of the images that are impressed upon them by the Mint that produces them.
Hoever, when some one sees something, - a car , a cell phone , a camera which is well maintained, it is said to be 'in mint condition' which is supposed to represent a coin that is freshly produced from the Government Mint! Peppermint has nothing to do with it!😀
