Did all the ASE in 1986 come in orange tubes? Like this one?

Yes

If yes; then why APMEX is showing this?

FWIW, APMEX is currently selling the empty tubes. Link

Thanks MetroD. Then APMEX has a problem with their marketing! They should show the original orange tube photo on the 1986 ASE main-page not the green one.....

They are probably showing what they would use to package a 20-coin order, the current-style tube.

I am guessing that if you want the 1986 version of the tube, you would have to buy it separately.
