I know it's not technically correct, but when I think of bullion I think of the run-of-the-mill bullion, proof or burnished ASEs or other world bullion. The 25th Anniversary Set and 2009 Ultra High Relief (I would love to have 1 of these someday) are pretty much out of the ordinary. I also have a couple of the bullion ATBs in PL and DMPL because I got them at a great price and I also didn't want fugly bullion.</p><p><br /></p><p>My thoughts refer to basic ASEs, Pandas and Perth Mint items. As jjack stated, the production quality of these is good enough to be at least a 69-grade in most cases. Then, as I mentioned above, there is the added dimension of slapping different labels on the slabs, which is not a big deal in itself, but to charge a higher price for a different label when the very same type and grade of coin is inside. That's crazy. Then, the fact that people are actually willing to pay more for it. Wow. As you said, it's a (brave) new world.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
