I feel so bad for many of these seniors, who buy all this crap in the fancy packaging, thinking it’s valuable, only to find out most of it is worth about $10 to $15. Gold plated coins, sets, and 2x2 ‘s are so misleading id you don’t what your doing. Their old pocket change (90%) being worth so much more than the corny sets.
Man give me a big coffee can of pre 64 dimes,quarters or half dollars anyday over those fancy boxes holding 4 supposed proof sets that the older folks see on TV for 2 AMAZING LOW PAYMENTS OF 39.95 LOL
I do coin appraisals all the time and it takes me hours you did it in minutes plus I’m 62 years old and worked for insurance companies doing appraisals for over 40 years how can you do this to people. There no way you looked for error. It also looked like you had a gold coin you were to fast.
I got a sweet deal at an estate sale last year, over Nine and a Half POUNDS of 90% US Mint pre-'64 halves, quarters, and dimes for $325 cash. That is about 130 Troy oz melt.........over $3,200 today....! ! !
A few years ago I bought a "broken" 18kt yellow gold chain from a lady at a yard sale. It was a 22" rope had been broken in two. The lady had both pieces and seemed to think it was junk. Her son told her the gold was still worth something and she wanted $150 for it. I talked her down to $100 and that was only because I thought I could fix it. It weighed 43 grams of which 75 percent was gold. That's 32.5 grams of gold. Today that is $1,914.12 at scrap 24k gold price and I paid $100 for it. Of course I still have it. 😉
My initial thought is that this collection was barely worth $200, and you gave $250 for it. So that was good for the owner. Most of those coins have virtually no value, and the amount of time a person has to devote to it to recover that $250 makes it a poor proposition.
Not true at all. That bag of mostly mixed 90% he showed at the end is around $150 by itself depending on how much face value was in there. Each of those Ikes in the brown boxes were another $10 (four total). The sets with the Franklin halves were at least $30 each (four of those). There were also a couple of sterling medals, so there's easily $350 in that collection, maybe over $400 by the time you add up all the other little stuff. $250 is a phenomenal deal, and he'll probably double his money within a week since it's not like he's selling it for melt. Silver coins don't hang around very long in a shop.
I love watches and noticed you bought a few watches one looked like a rolex how come you didn't show those ? I love watching your channel by the way its so interesting !
I have a question for you? When you’re picking up the DS and you throw the price in the corner, I occasionally will look up something that looks like it to get a rough estimate of value, but there’s always a little tweak somehow that makes the one on line so much better than the one I have in my hand. How do you protect yourself from that? Maybe Cross reference many sites? What are your thoughts
@@danielrosenfeld8206 Much appreciated, I will look at it for sure and try to understand it better. When you sell an item on eBay do they take a present from you?
Love the vids. I'm watching old ones here just noticed a misspelling missed in edit..@ 2:37 it says " Be sure to subcribe" subscribe just an observation on my end. I love the content I wanna visit the shop but I'm far
Yea don’t hold my old videos against me I like to think they got a lot better as I learned about editing and got better software and computers lol thanks for the comment
I should’ve started commenting sooner, but I’ve got a lot of coins. Now I got you on my TV and my phone. Try to give you two subscribers at once. I don’t know if it works that way though.
Yep you saw that 1909 vDB to in VF to did ya, those proof Benji year sets get good money to , I I understand they got to make money to pay the rent . People are really are stupid , those coins need to be gone over by someone who knows that the brown Ike’s are 40% silver. Lol
Way to rob the lady you just purchased over $1,000.00 worth of coins that's why I don't deal with pawn shops only coin dealers great job Miss leading her to believe she would get a fairdale in the beginning.
@@mjanovec.....It clearly was my friend you might not know much about tokens Germany coins and Roman coins not including how many early $1800s to early $1950s coins plus the watches and constitutional coins with the Silver proof coins. Only for $250 so you're saying an easy 75% profit is what he should get from this purchase.
