<p>[QUOTE="cvicisso, post: 1188037, member: 29382"]About two months ago, I got a package deal on 1/10 Gold Eagle + 1 oz Silver Eagle (limit 5). I bought the limit (5 Gold + 5 Silver).

I'm not buying anything smaller than a Sovereign anymore. I also invested in some Fisch tools (Google it) to cover my six. Everything has checked out as genuine (I HIGHLY recommend the Fisch if you can afford it). </p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, I found it extremely surprising that most websites (even arguably 'legit' ones) list the Corona (and/or Korona) as 35mm, when it is actually 37.1mm. APMEX has them listed correctly. Anyway, I ended up ordering the wrong size holder - no big deal. Speaking of which - how do you guys store your bullion coins? I'm using the Lighthouse 2x2 Quadrum holders, and am very pleased with both the protection and the wide range of ways to use/store these.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
