That holed Queen Elizabeth coin isn't silver
Comment from : @thisismonitor4099

I'm fairly new to numismatics, and have only been collecting for about 6 months My collection started by connecting Constitutional silver minted during WW2, which led me on my path to collecting for the sake of the history of coins I have plenty of War nickels, holed coins, and coins dug up from Civil War battle fields

Comment from : @AlanReynolds69

Very informative always
Comment from : @waynezazulka1429

Ok the silver nickle and the 40brI see a use there normally cheaper right? Less premium right?brIf you think you might need to barter for small stuff Like a few eggs a meal you anything smallbrWould they not be better than the little tiny silver bars? Would they not have less premium than the little bar?
Comment from : @tbjtbj4786

These are your barter coins When spot creeped near 29/ounce those 40 percenters thinking was bang on with spot
Comment from : @pegboyd4312

Which video talks about fake NGC graded and slabbed coins?
Comment from : @dolfinwriter5389

What do you say to people who say we should stack nickels for the copper and nickel in them?
Comment from : @dolfinwriter5389

Thank you for this information My question is how do you know if the coin is fake? Does it still have silver or gold? Is it just plated? JH
Comment from : @JohnHuntt

The Kennedy half dollars were not minted from 1965 through 1970, but were originally first minted in 1964 (@ 324 in your video)
Comment from : @thomasthompson6378

i have one war nickel, just to have itbut i do like the 40 kennedysi get em pretty much at spot from my LCSi like them alot and eventually they will be more in demand they dont make them anymore and they are at least 50 years oldi have a few rolls
Comment from : @J-Rad-

Buy what you can when you can ! The idea is stacking Not fancy or ridiculousbrcommemoratives or laser show coins Do you own research Buy at least anbroz a week if you are still working It will pile up in time Leave to your childrenbras a safe nest egg
Comment from : @TheMkarr

Take those silver wartime nickels too while you're at it hahaha throw em my way as you throw em around
Comment from : @maxf7351

I just bad news of a fake graded 1889 Morgan CC I submitted to an auction house It’s a heartbreaker
Comment from : @vinhennessy3885

I think you are hobbled by your coin collecting when giving advice for stackingbrYour thoughts that everyone wants silver with neumensic value are my evidencebrJunk silver is by definition not neumensic valued so your criticism of just getting spot for junk silver is not really being fair or subjectivebrAnd in case of great calamity whoever received those shiny slabbed coins would be more likely to chop it in half to give change or spend it in two places than give any "premium" because it's shinybrI find it a little humorous that you use volume and extra weight to argue against 35 coins but have cardboard books of nickels that are zero silverbrI have and do pay premiums sometimes because I'm smitten with shiny stuff just like a crow or hammy the squirrel but I don't count on ever getting that back
Comment from : @ghz24

I got really excited when I saw the faux-NGG-graded coin in the pile! Alas, it wasn't discussed Can you (or anyone explain) how you were able to determine it was fake?
Comment from : @Kirok2005

There's a viable market for counterfeit/ copy coins/ tribute coins Just because you don't like them doesn't mean people shouldn't buy, sale, trade in them
Comment from : @josiahskurlock6380

OUCH!
Comment from : @paulmcckain3420

Always interesting watch even though I haven't got any US coins yet 😍👍👍👍
Comment from : @terryhall818

The coin graded Is not fake right
Comment from : @dennisdavis1457

I buy Morgans over silver eagles bc if silver goes down to $10 an ounce silver eagles will sell at $18-20 per ounce but Morgan's will still sell at $40-60 in decent condition with less total silver weight than eagles
Comment from : @eagledrive

Great video and info
Comment from : @Tony-km3ns

Even though they are slick and dateless, I still like them Reminds me when I was a kid and I would get one a run off to the nearby candy store and buy penny candy and five cent snack cakes
Comment from : @marymastromauro8164

I don't see any issue buying a jewelry grade or cleaned coin, so long as the price is down closer to generic scrap gold It's always worth something to the guy who's melting it all back down
Comment from : @ah5836

35 and 40 are perfectly fine, if you get them for a little under spot Better to have silver than no silver
Comment from : @peteskeet9443

How do we tell if they're fake or not
Comment from : @dannykuchinski7165

I have a thing for the humble war nickel It's has its place as a potential good barter coin lesser than dimes and unique being the only US coin to have 35 silver I got in when they were less than spot btw
Comment from : @tonya469

sad because i like morgans beautiful coins
Comment from : @DrAvEn1990

I bought a bunch of nickels for cheap when spot was 14$ mar 2020 brI use have wheat pennies and nickels in my safe, don't keep the shiny stuff at home
Comment from : @bubba9985

I have a fake 78 8 tail feather Morgan dollar, it has "COPY" on the reverse and I polished the silver plate off, it's clearly brass I carry it as a pocket coin
Comment from : @babyinuyasha

Actually the best way to buy is to get close to spot as possible Kilo bars offer the best value I see dealer markups as low as $3 You can always buy these coins at cull grades
Comment from : @alouie001

weight is the issue w silver imo -- kilo bars and mercury dimes are my thing
Comment from : @thehighvibe5528

Wouldn't a fake copy be a real coin??? Lol
Comment from : @Mikey-xw7yo

so what coins can you bye and be with littel money :)
Comment from : @rob5214

When I got in heavy few years back I got a fake morgan in a few I bought makes me ill
Comment from : @brianleonard6885

Melt them datless down :) make me a bar :) please Good advice nice video 👍
Comment from : @brianleonard6885

Wrongjust sayinthanks for your opinion tho 👍🤣😅😂👍
Comment from : @Bud2681

Great video! I agree on the War nickels, the 40 coins from 1965 and later, the slicks (although they do still count as silver), and the fakes But please, I implore you, just for this one thing: please stop saying, "jewl-ery"! You said it so many times I was going into a spazalitic state The word is, "jewelry" And by the way, when the mounted soldiers come to the rescue, it's the "cavalry," and not the "calvary" ("Calvary" is a different thing altogether) Please help me to retain this tenuous grip I have on my sanity Thank you!
Comment from : @strat959

Due to how the damage and grade was, I got a seated liberty quarter for 35 under melt
Comment from : @connormeriwether4486

I was under the assumption that professionally graded coins are checked to be genuine
Comment from : @danbrewer8546

When you say "fake" do your mean reproduction or like fake fake as in Pot metal colored gold etc?
Comment from : @thunderbugcreative7778

I rather buy 90 silver than buy 99 and pay $10 in premiums over the spot
Comment from : @olyachiriva

Do you have a video on what to look for in fake coins? What markings to look for in a real coin vs fake one?
Comment from : @HoneyBadger938

The dimes are worth more because its a higher percentage of silver The nickel only has 35 silver which isn't much in the grand scheme of things
Comment from : @spartanumismatics8165

I learned about Love Tokens from coin guy on your channel I've bought so many at good deals They're so awesome! <3
Comment from : @crystalkim7130

What am I missing, when you say "weigh the safe down?" Sorry, but I don't know what you mean!
Comment from : @scotts1356

Thankyou Sir
Comment from : @Rustybucket303

Yep, 100 on this video everyone! I like that you still have these examples to show everyone, the mistakes I've made or gaw's I've won that fall under these categories I've long since moved down the line towards gold (except for the fakes of course)
Comment from : @Teh-Jones

Ugh guilty
Comment from : @MartyParsons86753

War nickels are the perfect coins to invest in silver The buy/sell spread is sooooo slim Just like Austrian 100 coronas is a great gold coin to buy Low spread You do NOT want to buy gold buffaloes or silver eagles The buy/sell is too far apart
Comment from : @tmo4330

The gold coin is brass I can tell just by seeing it on video SILVER is a bit tougher to spot They make some good fakes and usually when a coin is graded or slabbed it secures the fact that it is legit They are faking slabs now
Comment from : @dominickmarino6680

When explaining dimes vs 40/ Kennedy's, there are way too many "ALMOST" being spoken to sway me to the dimes
Comment from : @leastamongyou1111

Thanks for the info*
Comment from : @Gellybeanb1974

So the NGC slabbed coin was a FAKE? 🏹
Comment from : @FirewoodStackingRockstar

I have a couple of war nickels that I only paid face value for I found them in my pocket change Same with some silver Washington quarters
Comment from : @MegaSaintAugustine

15:45 What's the Saint Gaudens actually made from?
Comment from : @davebellamy4867

Yes, I have bought fake coins to mix them in with real coins because people like to steal my coins!

Comment from : @allahson4967

Why's it bad to NOT BUY WAR COINS?
Comment from : @allahson4967

Damn them fictitious Grandmas, they ruin everything!
Comment from : @markrobbins1878

there is a legit good use for dateless coins punch four holes in them and repurpose them as coat buttons or cabochons on leather to add a bit of flare to a period outfit or just to have another use for silver bullion
Comment from : @Dayrile

The war nickels and 40 percent halves I have I have acquired at face value I have only paid more than face value once
Comment from : @omegateamsports5291

16:31 I agree with you
Comment from : @joanelmak

Keeping garbage coins and replicas in my cabinet would give others a false impression of me
Comment from : @dartarkana4279

I bought some Kennedy halves when silver was 13$ as junk they were all Ms 60 or above there 50yr old the silver there already appreciated some seeing them 10$ each Have a capped ms 63 half like yoursbr with a hole was 4$ yrs ago sells 100$ today 🙄 As there rare
Comment from : @donalddesnoo5303

how do avoid fake coins? if you by from a big online dealer is it safe to assume they are not fake?
Comment from : @virgiljohnson4260

would you sell the 'holed" Columbian expo coin, if you still have it?
Comment from : @AMBASSADORHOFF

your segment regarding 'jewelry grade' gold coins is a bit confusing, as you don't indicate whether or not the 2 MS-62 coins are considered 'jewelry' grade You seem to be showing them as examples of what NOT to buy Forgive my ignorance, but what's the story here?
