Fear of what? I don't know. I do know when I go down to my local dealer to find a couple of ASE's, he'll tell me he's out.

Same thing happens in the ammunition market, but that's a topic for a different message board. Ah well, it has forced me to branch out into Morgan dollars, Peace dollars, Maple Leafs and Canadian silver dollars. That led me to want to learn a little more about the coins I'm buying, which led me here and now I'm learning lots.
