[QUOTE="Garlicus, post: 3092313, member: 73190"]Good deal on the 1991. The 2018, in my opinion, is a $19-20 coin in an $18 holder. I am not trying to disparage you, as you may collect whatever makes you happy, but considering the 2018 is a currently available [B]bullion[/B] coin (the official collector's version was just released on Thursday), and you are on a tight budget, I would have passed on the slabbed bullion. Again, collect what you like. It's your money and your happiness. I am just noting what I see in the Silver Eagle category and how I approach them. There are threads on Coin Talk that discuss this, feel free to read them for other's opinion on these. P.S. - When I started collecting Silver Eagles, I made the 'mistake' of purchasing them in slabs.
