  These are the bullion version of the coin released through wholesalers. The collector version, typically with the W (and now, apparently, S) mint mark, is sold directly to collectors at a later date.

  Keep up now libertydude . The number of labels and options is going to the moon soon. Its halfway there now. Look on Ebay and be sure to keep track of the W's, no W's (W's), (S's) ER FS NO ER NO FS 25th anniv, 25th anniv set. Man I consider myself as knowledgable where ASE's are concerned and I"m not sure I can keep up

  sports cards, beanie babies, and the Canadian mint have jumped the shark (usually, it's the "hologram" issues that does it) The US mint is following all the footsteps...
