Here is my guess: They signed a contract with the US Mint to be their official grader and starting 12/21/12 all coins sold to collectors by the...
I have heard of this happening a lot on the modern regular and silver proof sets. As others have said, it is likely the start of toning perhaps...
That is my one and only gold spouse as well, and I had a similar ordering experience. IMO, it is the most aesthetically pleasing of them all so...
My guess is that the pair was given to you (or your retail establishment) at the same time. I am glad to hear you got one of them. Congrats. TC
It is hard for me to judge from the pics but I am thinking MS64. TC
Those are awesome Morgan VAMs. It would be great if you could get 1-2 more and corner the market. I wonder how many ANACS has attributed. TC

I think it is a good idea to have an inventory of your coins. If you have ever paid for a coin by any means other than cash, there is always...

I like them all but #5 has a nice subtle rainbow toning that is striking to me and is my favorite followed by #4 (love that clean bright white). TC
That's cool. You said first...How many tubes are you eventually hoping to acquire? TC
Welcome to Coin Talk! No! TC
This question falls under the category of "things that make you go hmmm" along with questions such as How many fairies can dance on the head of a...
Sounds like you made a pretty good deal (just a little bit above current melt value). If these are uncirculated, I would never consider them to...
