    I just got the 10 ASE's I ordered from that deal that APMEX had. They came in a mint tube with little round spacers so they don't rattle. Are these spacers PVC free for longer term storage? I'm still kicking myself for not buying more. Oh well.

    I got 4 of them in my tube, as well. I am also kicking myself for not getting more than the 10.

    Wcoins, they're little round black foam "thing-a-ma-bobs"

    Is this them?
    I have them on my desk and I have no idea where they come from.

    Ok, they are little foam coasters that keep the bullion coins from contacting each other. I fail to see their need. My tubes just sit there. They don't do gymnastic moves or dance the eagle. If I want to move some, I can just stick a shipping peanut in to hold them together. They are free aren't they?

    To my uneducated eye, they look like the foam inserts that I take out of my airtite foam rings. If that's what they are, they're designed for coin storage and should be inert.

    Where can I buy? Would be good to keep airtites from scratching each other.

    That's what they look like to me.

    Turns out those FOAM I posted are from the air tites and the foam flintcreek6412 is talking about is something different.

    I saw it in one of the Silver unboxing video on youtube. I should have saved that video, because I can't find it.
