Thanks for the clarification guys! I just realized there was such a thing as Air Tite containers! Those proof silver eagles look very nice, I really like the finish!
I might be mistaken on this, but to me the ASE is a bullion coin that is easy to sell. I know some see them as a numismatic coin, but I have always seen them as a well known bullion round that is easy to sell because it is well known. I also like the Maple Leaf for it's .9999 purity. I collect coins for a hobby and buy bullion coins on speculation that I can sell them for a profit when spot spikes. My numismatic collection has nothing to do with the spot price of their metal, I don't see myself selling my collection unless somebody were to offer me an insane price.
seems kind of odd to me as well, but we all collect different items. To some maybe they like graded bullion coinage.
