You can confirm by clicking on the transaction link in the "Date" column. "Minting" just means adding the token to the blockchain, which is recorded on that transaction and visible on etherscan. "Null Address" in the "From" field just means no one owned it before you.

$100,000 Worth of Ethereum NFTs Destroyed by OpenSea Bug: ETH Dev - Decrypt
September 9, 2021 - Johnson told Decrypt that he hasn’t heard anything from OpenSea yet regarding potential compensation for NFTs lost due to the bug. Late Wednesday evening, the company issued a statement via Twitter, which appears to be its only public comment on the matter thus far. "We've reached out to the small number of users who were affected by the issue yesterday where sending an NFT to an ENS name sent it to the encoded version of the literal text (e.g. "OS.eth") instead of the associated address," the company tweeted.
