Quick question about Canadian Silver maples leaf coins

Guys, just a simple question

Did the silver maples originally come in shrinkwrapped packages or as loose coins? I've seen people on ebay selling ones in rolls that they say are unopened and then ones that are wrapped in some kind of package.

Thanks
Mike

    Just remember when bidding on an un-opened roll of maples, they come in tubes of 25.. Not 20 like the ASEs

    I will use it until some higher authority deletes it like my Jesus icon.. One day I had Jesus.

    I have bought them as a sheet of 10
    2001 was the year

    jamakin, yeah I've seen them in the sheets as well. I guess perhaps in small quantities they sell them in sheets and large quantities they are loose in the roll holders?

    I sold 5 lots of 20 each on ebay over the last 2 weeks and got $310 to $320 for each 20 lot, plus $10 shipping.

    You did well. They used to carry a premium but no more, same with gold Maple leafs.

    I've seen them in ribbons, sheets and rolls as well.
