Starting off strictly as a silver stacker(mainly generic silver). My interest were soon broadened into the world of numismatics, and coin roll hunting. I have truly fallen in love with coin collecting and the history of U.S. coins. So, now I consider myself more of a coin collector. I am learning as I go, and love sharing what I learn through this channel. I also love learning from those who are knowledgeable through the comment section, and of course all the other RU-vid stacking and coin channels out there, so please feel free to teach me more about this wonderful hobby. 🤠👍

but wait sir. is it not illegal to melt us coin back to metal? that is my belief, i think🤷♂🤷♂ public edge-you-ma-kay-shun. i am like that bulb in your fridge, bright when needed
@@jayburkhart1781 only if you get caught 😂but in seriousness, the term “melt value” is used to give the intrinsic value of the precious metal in the coin. Right now it’s illegal to melt one cent coins and nickels or to export them. And while it is illegal to melt silver coins for profit, it is perfectly legal to melt them down in order to make art, and jewelry. You👉💡🧐 ,….Me👉 🌞 😎 🤣🤣🤣
@@ManDad_1964 took me a sec but i got it. me bright, you brighter. love it. hats off sir. that was a good one. but art and jewelry is then traded for monetary value, normally cash, correct. damn that was a zinger
Haha, I knew you could take a good ribbing. 😁 But yes, that is the stipulation, can be done, but not for profit. So, any jewelry or art would have to be for personal use or gifts. At least that’s what I found on the interweb 😁
Great sale on the bay! I’ve been averaging a sale a day on some Halloween stuff but nothing major.😁 I also watch another coin channel that said to grab up the 2024 Nickels. 🤷♀️ Have you heard anything about that?
@@ManDad_1964 I spent two years looking through raw quarters to complete a set of B reverse quarters from years 1956 - 1964. It was a lot of fun. I even found a C reverse quarters
I received mine today and guess what it has the privy mark. It didn't have the signed director's endorsement or the number the coin was. I'm so lucky to get this coin with a 2.3% chance. I ordered mine on the 15th at 0920 PST. From my understanding there are 3 different COA's
@@ManDad_1964 I looked at listings, but honestly there isn't much activity from what I saw. No bids on some unopened ones... I have unopened mint stuff already, so I'm just not sure how to proceed
@GardenerEarthGuy this wasn’t the typical mint release that usually comes in a box and sealed with tape, so the whole unopened premise goes out the window. My auction will close on Wednesday, and the current bid is $170.00
My friend, congratulations, even though no privy it is still a beauty. Nice videos I am subscribing!! I just unboxed 2 medals on my channel too. Exciting about the gold!!!!
For what it's worth, there was one buyer commenting on a different unboxing yesterday who said he did get a privy medal without the signed COA, and it came from Texas.
It is what it is a medal. The important people got the privy. As usual, common folk did not get one. They were mostly likely gone before I ordered mine. And I was there early. I got a first strike one, 😢at least. Might sell it.
I'm pretty sure that's the case, because I saw one coin dealer that had like three in a row numbers 216, 217, 218, or something like that. It just didn't make any sense to me how it's supposed to be random if things like that happen.
Got my bubble mailer yesterday with no privy. Still a nice strike and nice-looking medal. Some sort of tamper seal might have been nice to know my privy coin wasn't swapped out. 😂
I think you have to be an authorized dealer to get ones with a privy mark? Mine should arrive on Monday, since I'm not an authorized dealer it won't be a privy.
