These will easily sell out. I am surprised that the Mint is not putting together some special educational set for the BSA commemorative. TC
I would try to keep the Jefferson Liberty if possible. That is a beautiful classic coin design that truly shines in gold (especially the proof)....
I would open them up! TC
I prefer the ASEs but have a number of other world bullion coins as well. TC
I am in the market for a 1999 silver proof set as well. I am thinking that the price is going to continue to drop and am waiting to buy until it...
I am not a fan of HSN for coins. I do like this thread though as it really emphasizes just how overpriced they are compared to other sellers...

I think 2009 was a "unique" year and suspect that bullion mintages will be somewhat lower in 2010. i will predict an ASE mintage of 27 million...

I do not think the buying would only be focused on the pandas. There may be a surge in demand at some point for many of the bullion coins from...
This is a great idea and sounds fun! Go for it. TC
Wow! That is a staggering number of ASEs. Mintage on the 1996 ASE bullion coin was roughly 10% of the 2009. This really shows that silver...
I am not a fan of the SBA dollar but that was a great pick-up at face value on your part. TC
It would be very interesting if the ASE program ENDED after 25 years. I would expect that prices would significantly increase when this does...
Great San Diego commemorative. MS-65 is my guess. Congrats. TC
Another vote for Coin World. TC

There was a SLIGHT delay on these recently but they are readily available. TC
Great advice so far. As far as bullion goes, you can always weight it. However, I only buy my bullion coins from a select few reputable dealers. TC
I probably joined after you left, but welcome back anyway! TC
