Is it just a weird capsule?

    bulk bullion coin (no mint mark) that came out of a tube and put in an aftermarket capsule.

    1999... I was mostly referring to the ring in the diameter. If that’s the capsule it’s a lousy capsule.

    Most likely they used a capsule for generic silver rounds. Nothing wrong with that since both are considered bullion products, except silver eagles do have a larger premium over spot.

    Maybe it originally had a foam ring inside for a smaller coin?

    Sandwiched between other eagles will not make them look better , but might make ya feel better. They do me.
