I was looking at the APMEX site and noticed they had 2012 sealed ase tube's from SF mint stating that (until now, no silver american eagles have been minted in san francisco since 1992) is this right?
I'm new to collecting ASE's starting with the 2011 25th anniversary set, so I presume you are refering to the anniversary S
Oh; in addition to the anniversary S, there were bullion silver eagles minted at San Francisco last year, but they had no S mint mark.
I think this is a scam. With no "S" mint mark these coins are vertically identical to one's struck elsewhere. A "label" is not a collectors item.
