Wondering if you could make a video on how to tell a specific gravity on a coin without buying an XRF hand held metal alloy Analyzer? Couldn't believe the price's to buy an XRF. Thanks
What was the grade on that 1984 double ear that sold for $408? I found one of those last year but it's not in the best shape and I have not had it graded.
Also there are really nowhere to sell coins even when you want to sell them where a dealer can get it graded and make money. I’ve got a bunch of the dollar coins with no side stamp
Sir I love your videos. I live in New Jersey. Is it ok to bring questionable coins to a local coin shop ? Or is there a way to send you a pic of coins? How can you tell for sure if a coin shop is legitimate or accurate in their observations?? Thank yoy
1943 is not the only year they made steel pennies… Incidentally they also by mistake made some in 1944 that were left over from the year before - which makes them extremely valuable.
@@couchcollectibles Are you sounding a wee bit defensive? Was my assertion incorrect? If my assertion was correct, then why isn’t your statement, standing alone - incorrect? And yes I’ve been subscribed to your channel for quite a while - I’ve watched a lot of your stuff. Yes I watch the whole video typically… Did I earn any kudos??? I know that you’ve featured 1944 steel pennies - and I also know that anybody who collects coins knows about the 1944 steel pennies… That’s why I was surprised when you said “1943 was the only year they made steel pennies.” You really only made a minor error. No big deal. I corrected it for you. Are you unwilling to take a correction? If so, show me how I’m wrong.
@@SW-rb9cr Yep - just like every coin collector ought to already know that, it’s common knowledge. Therefore the statement “1943 is the only year they made steel pennies “- is incorrect.
@@couchcollectibles You asked me some questions. I answered them. I then asked you some questions and you so far just ignored it all together. Once again, was I wrong?
@@joemessenger9716 1943 Philadelphia at 68+ is valued at 35,000 and the most recent sale was Stack's Bowers auction in November 2020 at $33,600. The weight seems normal, 41.5 grains (2.689 grams) or 42.5 grains (2.75 grams) and with a . 13 gram tolerance, Which puts your coin in the correct weight. If you do submit a coin to pcgs, and you believe it is a MS70, I would submit it as a 68+ and not 70 to be safe. The reason I would do that is because if you go over their analysis of the MS number for your coin, you will have to resubmit the coin which could take couple of months. If you submit it at 68+ and they say no it's a 70, you will not have to resubmit the coin but you the submitter will be charged the Guarantee Premium based on the coin's value for insurance and shipping
