I stopped by the coin shop up by my grand parents today, Cable coins and picked up a few more oz. of silver from Steve. I will be up to 68 total oz., once that
ASE MS 70, via that no name grading company arrives, lol....
So today I grabbed a loose 2001
ASE, nothing special and a mark or two, but just short of 40 bucks for it, so not bad. And wow this cool ASE/Britannia set for 2002 and 2003 that I had seen before on
ebay, but could only find one example tonight, and the buy it now is 155 total with shipping. I got my set for 100, and the other coin for close to 40, so will do. Here is the high set on
ebay below, and man I love that Britannia, as I do that entire series....

And he does not have much pure silver for sale now (mostly 90% older coins), as he has hoarded most into his own collection, in which he said it would take days to shift through. I was lucky someone had just sold him that loose
ASE. He said the store items he sales, is stuff that came in off the street that he bought, and could not have made those connections without the store, to get that stock. I thought that was very interesting....
