Pawn Stars: TREASURE UNCOVERED! 1715 Spanish Gold Worth a Fortune (Season 2) | History 

Or... Don't sell a coin to a pawn shop, and loose 7 grand.

@@frozenhorse8695 or don’t listen to people who use the word loose when the word is lose

@@ajjjb Or.. Don´t listen to people with onthing better to do that criticizing others.. Looser!!

@@frozenhorse8695 and you've taken it personally... it was meant to be a joke but here we are. You criticized the man in the video for no reason and I cant criticize you? Ironic

​@@ajjjb Pawnshops can provide you with cash on the spot. If he takes that to an auction he will have worry if the coin will be undersold and would have to deal with auction fees.

😂😂😂😂☺️☺️

Why do they always think Rick is gonna give them what it's worth? It's a pawn shop for crying out loud.

@@deanbrainard5851 I am always surprised at how generous Rick and his staff are about how much they will pay. Most pawn shops will not pay more then a 3rd or a 4th of the value of an item.

🤝

@@justinbryson2906 Gold is different. I ran a shop dor years. We'd pay weight minus 15% for pure gold. On premium coins or high end jewelery we had special customers wish lists. Other things then yes 1/2 to 1/3 their value.

What the H... It's not some family heirloom. It's a coin the guy put away in a safe as a means of putting cash away. Just because your grandparent owned it doesn't make it a treasured heirloom. Or would you be keeping everything including the half used box of tissues from their bathroom?

@@jakecooper5855 I wasn’t talking about this instance in particular. I’m referring to how there’s so many people in this show that say “it’s been in my family for years, but I just don’t have a use for it”. I definitely know that I have a couple things from my grandfather that I wouldn’t want my children to just go sell at a pawnshop.

@@bruteunicorn1345 Sure but the comment is on this clip with no other context.

@@jakecooper5855 yes but the comment is referring to “the show” not this clip.

+BruteUnicorn134 Yeah one look at Jody tells you this guy probably wasted his money at the blackjack table.

he still lost out on $7K

@@AllenHanPR plot twist it was fake and he made 10k easy

It wasn't a good deal he lost 7000 bucks

@@kadehyde3817 The coin was real and it was sold for $31.500

@@AllenHanPR Lost out on more then that, if he sold it elsewhere he could have gotten $40,000 or upward

"I gotta do what I gotta do!" Rick's hilarious!

Yeah a couple of marys here. I can pick it up and walk he says at the 10k offer and then comes back with a puny 500 more.

TRUE!!!not good in acting lol

I once made a Toyota dealership make $12,000 off me by trading my 12 inch lifted 2013 Silverado in 2017 with 80k miles. So I have lost more than the dude in the video easily in only 1 of my life's transactions

Yeh that was a bit funny. But fare dues they give more than the customer expected

Lmao smh

oof

This had me laughing 😂😂😂😂😂

Brutal

🤣🤣🤣

They con everyone!

He made more than the Double

This amounts to fleecing unsuspecting clients and totally against the business ethics.

@@agharehan6328 welcome to pawn stars!

@@BB-tx8ty NOPE, YOU ACCEPT PRICE ,THATS ON YOU. HE COULD'VE WALKED OUT.

Now where’s grandma ?

Probably nursing home

People really over estimate things like this.... it's just a coin. Why would anyone keep it under their pillow if they aren't coin persons?

@@kevinhamblin951 he died a few years ago

Sounds good... sell stuff to get your own stuff for your own kids... Or maybe he needed it for actual food and shelter.

Yea thats Rick - he gives a 2nd grade educational lecture on anything that comes into the store.

@@Len1977gt because they add it to script he reads every time.

Aaron Kemp you bet 😆😆🤣🤣😂😂

Because it's all staged

Bore off

I hope you realize it's basically a set

exactly

No man, this guy would have easily got 14,500 out of this deal.

@@understandingcards8174 your not thinking like a business owner. Business are expensive to run. Alot of things have to get paid before you do.

18k is retail. It could be sold at 16

Possibly, but how long the wait to move it?

good advice.... but about 10 years too late i reckon ... this episode came out in 2010, i think people who've watched the show over the years have gotten to know his negotiating tactics and that he's "almost" a know it all

@@laskerdmello2969 lol. I know. Just stating that I would've walked away if the offer wasn't 14k.

The guy only wanted $2K from it, so getting $11K made them both happy

@@Hexinvir true he was happy, but that doesn't negate my point.

totally depends on several factors. some factors that are tied to the actually item itself i.e., how much space does the item physically take up, does it need to be restored? does it need a special display or frame? etc, etc. And there are factors tied to rick's present financial situation. if rick has a ton of his money tied up in investments made on his store items then he tends to never pay more than 60% of the appraised items. based on the item itself i think rick could pay up to 80%: it's small, takes up little space, has a big market of potential buyers because it's a collectible coin with an excellent historical background; the coin itself has an excellent strike on both sides and is in excellent condition and is incredibly rare. rick has paid 80% on these types of items, but only when the negotiation is pushed to the limit, which it wasnt here, and if rick doesnt have a ton of stuff in his store that needs to be sold.

Feel free to buy a coin for 14k and try selling it for 18k. I'm sure you will be richer than Richard... You obviously know more about business than useless Rick.

Well yeah, hes trying to make money. Standard offer from them is like 50% of what they know they will sell it for... Always low balling.

@@A6Legit True, they are always looking to double what they pay for an item, especially the Old Man and his grandkid, but I think Rick is the one who made the shop what it is today by actually treating his haggling customers a little better and giving them fairer offers usually in the 60-70% range. A 60-40 or 70-30 split seems fair to me because you're getting cash on the spot without having to find someone who will buy it

20% auction fee + someone may only bid up to like 14k for it you never know.

Ricks gonna sell it for like 23k

Yea, he was a pretty good actor .

for sure

How do you know?

That's why an inventory of what's in the safe is in a file at the family lawyers' or accountants office. My story, too.

@@Dwightstjohn-fo8ki I'm sorry about that for you, if you think about it only a "desperado" would sell an old Gold coin at a Pawn Shop, anyone with brains would research value and put in an auction...Also show needs content, so who knows if situation was real ..

😲🤭.

lol

R.I.P. Carl, he was a fine lad...

Wasn't that Fizz?

Was that his only job? 🤔

@@princeedmunddukeofedinburg Captain Fizz is still alive and kicking, and still hunting treasure.

It's not as bad as Mr bean videos tho.

@@HouseboundPerspectives NO

@@cliffcorbitt9494 YES

Let me call a buddy who is an expert on original comments. He told me that yours is a reproduction and not genuine. Thanks for bringing it in though.

who IS* or who's*, not "whose". why is the difference so hard for so many people to recognize?

Yes when the cameras are on him for all the world to see. Doesn't prove anything. Any other time he may just give him 1500.

@@ww2mike Right, and for all you know, they might be the same way with the customers off camera as when they are on camera.

Spanish conquistadors even reached Alaska and Japan. Many places in the westcoast of canada have still their spanish names.

That's what I was thinking. He could have said "sold" when 2K was mentioned and taken his chances that it was not counterfeit.

They're running a show that needs historical content. Ofc he needs to call an expert friend.

@@harmagician1 I agree...even if it turned out to be counterfeit, Rick could have melted it down and recovered 80% of his money as that coin is an ounce of gold. Not a huge risk.

Despite what many think, I've seen Rick not take advantage of a seller's ignorance on several occasions.

@@Ease54 That's true.

Same

Me too

Me too lol been addicted since last year quarantine just can’t get enough

Hi! Thanks for being a #PawnStars fan!

Addicted? Then go find something of value and Rick will give you peanuts to maintain your addiction for a day.

Look up Carl Fismer and you will see why he knows so much about Spanish colonial era coins.

This is just for TV. Usually they get their expert to check it out in private, and then offer $1900. That's what I think.

Yeah, I was thinking what if Rick and the expert were in cahoots.

I noticed that too. Also I didn't see Rick use a magnet or pass it under an XRF.

Grading companies handle coins with bare hands. Most coin collectors don't wear gloves due to the frequency of dropping coins increasing. What bothered was when he flipped the coin he touched the fields!

It's made of gold, a noble metal. Bare hand wouldn't do anything to it, even if your hand covered all in oil. :D

It’s solid gold. Touching it with barehands won’t do anything to the coin.

I have NEVER seen someone handle any coin bare handed. It horrified me. Gee, I wonder if it was real, hope everyone followed the script...

Just grab and slide the scrub bar all the way to the end and hit replay. Commercials will be all gone - usually. A few videos are a bit stubborn and you may have to do it twice.

can we stop using this overused comment

@@DantheCat37212 Lemme call an expert to see if these jokes are overused.

@@DantheCat37212 No, we can't. Now try this: Best I can do is Chumlees half eaten Poptart, and Im taking all the risk

@@DantheCat37212 No sorry.

OMG THANK YOU FOR 100 LIKES IVE NEVER GOTTEN MORE THAN 4

Yes, anyone would "honestly" pay 11,000 and sell it within a few days for more than double.

Yes, when the cameras are on him for all the world to see

14k

shoulda started at 20k and dropped to 14

Should not have sold it at a pawnshop. Period.

That would be like winning the holy grail

If i had a dollar for every dollar i would make Rick rise the bit in this trade i would have 4k.

....deal....ok, let's go write you up

rick wouldnt give away the tokens... only the tickets.

How do you not understand the business of a pawn shop... It's not a trick.

@@apollenn It's not exclusive to a pawn shop. When you haggle a price you don't come down, close to the buyer's offer. How do you not understand business?

@@jackedkerouac4414 Uhm no- It totally depends. What the seller is willing to take. The fact he's at a pawn shop and getting that 10k offer was more then half of the value which is about what rick would offer at most and he did- So as much as you can be right, in the situation he was in, going down to just 12k wasn't bad at all since pawn shops are in it for the money there fore he wouldn't have that big of a chance getting anything more then what he went down to even if he stayed high.

@@apollenn im almost guaranteeing that the 18k expert was a lie and that this guy got screwed, hard.

His grandfather was cheap when he thought it was a $2K gold coin?!? Doesn’t make a lot of sense.

I was looking for the first person to mention My Hero Academia.

We're such nerds!!!! Because I was too!

Go plus ultra!!

@@robisan Same but I couldn’t so I had to do it!

@@MrGeeMoney1983 we are xD

thats why I check facebook market place every few hours lol

Haha, he would, too

Any real pawn shop would have given him 1500 to 2000 without a question asked.

Any real pawn shop would have given him 1500 to 2000 without a question asked.

Or someome would give him $800 or less because you dont know the true value of it..there are much worst crook that rick..thanks for the camera

He got a professional appraisal to give him the real numbers. Very few would do that for you.

@Charles Blandino let’s say you actually get 14.5 fees are 20% so you only get 11.5k so that’s literally nothing everyone knows Rick needs to make money so he only gets 500 your acting like he’s scamming you

​@Charles Blandino Thats not how it works at all. Yes some stuff goes up in price but pawning is the safe way of makeing a transaction with speed. 20% auctions fee is more then normal. When you pawn you get the money directly and safely. Pawning an item i think you should be happy with 50-75% of market value. becuse you need to find that seller as well and TIME IS MONEY. a pawnshop would never go plus if they gambeld on things going up in price everytime they bought it and couldent sell it for 3 years. 3 years of labor cost alot of money and auctions are unsafe you can get less then asking price there to and with 20% fee of that as well. Its still a business they need to go plus to pay their staff they have alot of staff at ricks pawnshop as well. I think i have never seen rick do a deal that is unfair for all the risks plus labor he is paying. The saftey and speed alone is worth so much. Market value =/= price for an item. Market value is what they have sold for it goes up and down after that! And seeing how it sold for that price to that one collector who wanted it there is less of a market for someone to buy it agian becuse one collector with that kind of money has already bought another one of those items . Lets put this in action: You have a item that is worth 15k you need money for a holiday or something thats within a month or two. How would you get your money fast and safe? Online? Okay that might work but will be alot of work and might not even get the money in time becuse you have to prove its real and maybe even meet up with the person and even then you might not see the money until its to late or they are scammers so maybe you notice that and have to redo the process. Or you go to a pawn shop and get around 10k for it in hand directly yes you lose maybe overall value and if you have the time and labor to go through it dont pawn it. but safe and you got your money as fast as you can tbh. And yes agian rick runs a business with employes. Its like nagging that you have to pay 50 dollars for a pair of jeans that cost them at most 5 dollars to make. That how the world works.

the house ALWAYS wins

You know the show is completely scripted right? As if all these people have the time in their day to wait around for Rick’s experts to show up, who are miraculously always free to come straight away.

@@him050 u mean to tell me that Chumlee doesn't actually have vast knowledge of 16th century pickle.barrels?

Hi! Thanks for being a #PawnStars fan!

13k

And even then sell it on half the actual price.

LMFAO!!!

Has there been a lot of bumped off grandfather’s in the Las Vegas area ?

Unless it pays for a wedding.

Half of 18 is 9. But anyway, grandpa's a pile of old bones, why feel shame?

@@lazer2365 because a lousy 11k is not worth something so rare. Also, if you dont feel anything towards deceased people, then you might as well say whats the point in life

And then they go and lose it all at the casino 😑

yea but if it was a fake he'd have lost money big time.

Carl does not live in Vegas. The guy with the coin was not the owner. The coin was on loan to make the episode, and Rick did not buy the coin. Totally fake show.

@@thomashayes6100 yeah. Like all these shows today..Totally scripted.

Ikr, $11,000 is en effing joke

He could have gotten more than $11K from Rick.

No he didn't. He could've gotten way more.
