I've seen that one before. Silly but it does make you take a second look.

 

IT'S A GOOD THING THEY PUT THE PICTURE ON THE LABEL SO WE KNOW WHERE IT CAME FROM!

 

Lol. I love ms 69 eagles in slabs....sheesh. What a scam when I see those sold for big premiums. All of them are ms 69 or 70 People they come right from the mint into tubes and there Are millions of them.

 

If it weren't for ms 69 & 70 slabbed ASEs, Mike Mezack wouldn't have a job.

 

While many are pretty common, they aren't all 69 or 70. There's plenty that would be 68 or lower that no one puts into slabs

 

I’ll buy them all day at spot. Just as a bullion investment. Otherwise who cares. I have a few kicking around in my silver drawers

 

I actually like that green label, wish it was their normal color.

 

I think you may have overlooked my point, millions are 69 or 70 so selling them for big premiums and acting like they are rare is a rip-off. which is what i see a lot of TV, magazine, and even internet stores doing.

 

Don't they all (uncs.) come out of a monster box?

 

Expanding on that...how about taking an ASE and carrying it in your pocket till you have an AU58...slab it as "Unique"

 

!!!You mean you can't find them in circulation??

 

good one! That actually would be more rare than a slabbed 69!

 

Once in a while, but it originally came out of a green box.

 

Just a guess but I think the markeying gimick here is that it's a 2004 frim someone that sat on a monster box for 16 years and then had them graded for sale as "monster box collection" with a story about them being never opened and sitting in a closet all these years..

Anyways. It's a silver eagle. Worth melt.

 

What the heck is a "Monster Box?"

Asking for a nimwit . . . .

The green boxes pictured on the slab label. The mint sells the bullion ones in boxes of 500 to the authorized distributors

 

It's a Box of 500 coins, 25 rolls of 20, packed by the US Mint.

 

I don't understand the significance of coins in the green box. Is there added value to coins sold in the green boxes? If I bought 500 ASE's, bill I get them in a green box? I get mine from the mint. The ASE is incased in a round plastic holder which is air-tight, in a blue box with in a nice jewelry box. It says that the coin is Proof or I can buy and Uncirculated ASE. The cost about $50 to $65 from the Mint with pretty frills. Any idea how much dealers sell their green box ASE's?

 

You can't buy these from the mint, they're sold to authorized distributors only in massive dollar amounts and there's something like 8-12 buyers on the planet that can get them. Proofs and uncircs are collector versions

If you search you can find them which will be sold at a premium from what they paid based off of spot. Aside from the hidden P ones they aren't really special
