<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 902688, member: 3011&quot;]A number of years ago when silver was selling for about $6-$7, I called Scotiabank and asked someone at their bullion desk about the $5 face value on the Maple Leafs and whether the coin could be cashed in for face value in the event silver fell below $5.&nbsp; They told me that it could not.&nbsp; The $5 value was put on the coins to enable Canada to export them to certain countries without paying certain taxes, but that the bank would not honor the face value, only the bullion value.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t know if what Scotiabank said was right, or if it applies to ASEs.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
