<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collector1966, post: 785978, member: 17919&quot;]At first glance it does seem a little strange, doesn&#039;t it, since the ASE is designed to be a bullion coin, to be sold based on its silver value, and thus by implication, subject to melting for its silver in the aftermarket.</p><p><br /></p><p>Perhaps the rationale here was, there is a huge demand for ASE coins, and they are distributed through dealers. If the dealers melt a bunch to create &quot;rarities&quot; or to jack up the price for the remaining ones, then it&#039;s not fair to the small-time purchaser who must get his/her coins through those dealers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
