Re: returning ATB Bullion: Gotta be careful who you buy from. These large silver disc are so easily marred, I only get them from Provident, JM Bullion, and occasionally from APMEX when there is a good sale on them. Typically the ones I receive from these outlets are flawless. I will never buy these from third party vendors on ebay ever again, they might or might not come with a capsule, and I am batting .000 on getting a fingerprint free coin from ebay. Almost always a large fat clear sticky fingerprint on the clear open area, ewww, the kind you could send to the FBI forensics lab for analysis. (Someone should start this database of dealers forbidden from ever touching another ATB coin again with bare hands!) That said, remember you are buying for as for Bullion stacking, not for collecting, per se, so many times the Bullion dealers frown on returns for frivolous reasons such as minor dings, scratches and the like from the mint process. There's similar wording you are advised before buying.

Bizybackson, I agree. Those who put their bare fingers on the coins clearly don't care about their customers. I avoid them on only buy from dealers that handle coins correctly and will be pleasant about me returning a coin if something is wrong.

How do you know when you order whether it's a P version (matted) or the BU version (shiny). I am looking for the BU version.
Thanks.

 If you're looking for the bullion/BU/shiny version, you'll need to hit up a PM dealer such as APMEX or JM Bullion. There are plenty out there so you can shop around for the best value.

The CCAC voted for GU-03. Most likely won't have a turtle again.

Yes, the National Parks are neat to visit. The annual and senior passes are well worth the cost. Too bad the senior pass went up from $10.
