I really like these coins and was hoping to buy a few but they seem scarce and not worth the markup. Seems to me the ASE's are the best bullion value out there.
Liberty on our coins or death!!

    It's been my experience that it's quite the opposite. I've seen Libertads (especially the old design) being sold cheaper than most ASE's on a regular basis. ASE's garner a relatively heavy premium in my opinion, not as heavy as the Britannias, Pandas or Kagaroos but heavy none the less. I think the most "bang for your buck" in government backed silver bullion coinage would be Austrian Philharmonics or early date Mexican Libertads or even non-commemorative/non-privy marked Canadian Maples.

    I like the new Libertads, I try to buy a fresh 5oz uncirc or proof every year or two. I bought some older bullion-strike Libertads for less of a premium than ASEs would have cost me.

    Best value in silver bullion is probably 100oz bars. Not too exciting, though.
