<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bacchus, post: 41616, member: 759&quot;]I buy proof ASEs, silver proof sets, and the occasional speculative purchase such as a roll of Sacs last year and rolls of nickels this year from the Mint.&nbsp; Actually, I usually buy proof ASEs from local dealers, but the dealers here are somewhat nonresponsive about getting things for me not in their stock and don&#039;t give me a definitive answer as to when things they will carry (such as ASEs) are going to be available, so I went with the Mint this year.&nbsp; It was worth it to not have to stop in or call every week at the dealer.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also bought nickels to give away to family members (I packaged them in Air-Tites).&nbsp; It was fun; I called my Dad and told him to expect ten cents in the mail !&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>To me the price of the nickels seemed cheap compared to anything else I buy.&nbsp; Of course, if I were buying in larger quantities I would be more price conscious.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have confidence in getting rolls from my bank.&nbsp; They act almost hostile when I ask for rolls of halves, and they never have them).</p><p><br /></p><p>So yes, I buy from the Mint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
