I guess I just viewed it more as a unique limited mintage silver round.
It's a little odd that just because the US Mint decided to stamp something about wwii, it's automatically ascribed a super high premium. I have my grandfathers helmet that he actually wore in the Philippines during the war, and is a much bigger/more tangible part of history than this coin, but not worth nearly as much....When it comes down to it, it's just a design on a piece of metal, and isn't really a part of that historical event... so why would 1 ounce of silver of somewhat limited mintage about wwii be more valuable than 5 ounces of silver with much more limited mintage....
Just all public perception about what creates value I suppose. I'm glad I got the ASE and the medal from the mint, because I wouldn't pay more than that for them personally....
