[QUOTE="68KennedyHalf, post: 3200959, member: 22306"]So my first bullion coins are here; I ended up grabbing a couple more Maple Leafs off eBay, 1989 issues with no milk spots.

It feels odd not to be putting the coins into an album or air-tites, but putting them straight into tubes seems make the most sense for my current strategy. [GALLERY=media, 9277]Maple leafs - initial stack by 68KennedyHalf posted Sep 29, 2018 at 12:48 AM[/GALLERY] Interesting angle regarding entire rolls. Maybe I'll try that in October when I get my second paycheck of the month. Part of my resistance to ASEs has to do with my numismatic side. I really love Walking Liberty halves, and it just seemed lazy to me that the Mint opted to use Weinman's obverse design for the ASE. They'll still be a part of my strategy, but I kind of smirk at them. I live in Chicago, so there are a few LCS options that should work. I've been recently thinking of trying a couple of them for numismatic purchases, so hopefully as they get to know me for those, they'll be inclined to offer deals on bullion.
