<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TopcatCoin, post: 1733270, member: 22746&quot;]I get it, but this debate between ASEs and generic rounds really comes down to a matter of taste.&nbsp; If you pay $2 more for an ASE (than a generic round) but later sell that same ASE for $2 more (than the generic round), it all comes down to preference and what you can afford.&nbsp; The OP is saying that ASEs have lost some of their gusto due to counterfeiting and uses his local auction as proof.&nbsp; I am not convinced.&nbsp; Go to any bullion site and you will see that the buy/sell prices of ASEs and generic rounds do not support his claim. I do have some generic rounds but mostly ASEs as I like the design.&nbsp; I also sold a bulk of my holdings last year to buy real estate.&nbsp; I can tell you that ASEs are very easy to sell.&nbsp; Also, back in 2008 when PM prices fluctuated dramatically, some online bullion dealers were not even paying spot silver for generic rounds but ASEs always had their premium.&nbsp; Nobody knows if the ASEs will always command a premium, but if they ever stop producing them or change the design, watch the numismatic value increase.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
