Is there such thing as circulated coins that may be damaged and old they could be worth money? Or do they all have to be mint condition to be worth anything? If you do a video on that I would crazy appreciate it I'm sure otherd would as well.
I started collecting in 1958 in San Diego, California, and in those days all coins from the S.F. Fed came in bags of $100.00. That included pennies, nickels, dimes. quarters, half dollars and silver dollars. Each Friday my mom would drive the Buick to downtown San Diego to the bank and pick up a bag of pennies for me to sort through over the weekend. My mom was just a little shy of 5 feet tall and weighed under a hundred pounds. The bank guard would always carry the bag out and put it in the car. It was my responsibility to get it out of the car. The pennies were in rolls and had to be rerolled to turn in. I wish I had kept one of those bags. On Monday mom would take the bag back for me. Still collecting today at 77.
It’s like opening a vintage pack of baseball cards 😉
I admire your integrity, you were raised right. Thanks for sharing!
Oh I agree absolutely open them ... I would open them just because my curiosity would get the best of me....
Thanks for shating the moment with us - it was exciting to enjoy the reveal and the hunt !! They ARE what we thought...a LOT of contact marks from years a rubbing / bumping togethwr from more than 4 decades of handling. Thanks for the fun anticipation tho - you rock !!!!!
One more thing this made me wonder. I used to work for a cash vault and courier company. I moved from the road to the coin vault and spent 8 to 9 hrs a day going through thousands of coins for deposit confirmation. I wasn't as informed back then but I can only imagine what went through my hands. I had some great finds as far as silver and even a gold 2 peso someone passed as a dime but I wonder how many errors went through my hands.
Well of course - open this bag and have the fun of discovery - money is NOT everything - pleasure and discovery is better than making a profit !!
Not when you do it for a living, profit is more important.
It’s an adventure. Go for it!
Thank you much for making the sacrifice! I’d take the finest one from the bag and put it in a frame with the bag to make a cool little novelty display piece.
$25 dollar over face value.....lose $25.
UA-cam content.... priceless!!!😊❤
Tough decision by you. I respect your judgement on them. You were correct in assuming that there were no outstanding coins.
Sometimes coins can drive you crazy,but above all never let them make you lazy.
They were called Carter quarters as people spent them as quarters.
I remember back in the day a long time ago I was at six flags Magic Mountain in Valencia Ca. I bought a bag of peanut from a vending cart for $2.00.
I handed the person a $10.00 dollar bill and was handed back $8.00 in change, that change was SBA’s.
The SBA’s looked very similar to quarters. I do believe this was in 1979.
No I didn’t save them , I took them to an arcade called the “Flipper Flapper” at the Redlands Mall.
My dad had left a '58 lead sealed bag of pennies and I stare at that bag incessantly every time I'm in that room. Razor?
I wanted to destroy the original twine. I am not selling these with the twine.
Thanks for taking us on the journey Daniel. Opening a mint bag or not, I guess it depends on if there are possibilities of DDO, R's n such. For these..not so much. I get rolls, I open them...the bags, just depends. Wished you would have found an off center or something. I'll wait for the video on $1000.00 bag now. 😁
I would have done the same thing, Daniel. Thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Somebody in Nowhere USA has the BIG 1️⃣✨
Hi Daniel, thanks so much for the 2 grab bags, they are GREAT!!
Thank you!
Its a gamble no matter the cost. With that said, the possibilities are endless, and if your cost is face value, your loss is zero and the gamble is everything.
I agree, someone would bid way more than they are worth. However, some people are willing to pay way over value just to have a mint sealed bag sitting on the shelf in a collection. I think the value is up to the person bidding on the coins. But I appreciate you being so honest.
I have been buying $100 bags of Kennedys for many years now and they are all still mint sewn and sealed. I figure my great great grandchildren will have an interesting time with them 50-60 years from now.
I have $100 worth of 1979 SBA’s from buying them original from the bank in 1979…LoL. They are mark free for the most part as they haven’t been touched. I was 15 years old back then.
I've been buying the $1 Native American bags each year, but haven't cut any open.
They'll sell them for jello shots 😉
Don’t open - sell to highest bidder
Thanks for doing this, Daniel!
This is also why you can't trust the people selling unsearched wheat penny rolls. The curiosity kills you.
Nice video, Daniel. Teaches the new searcher that even experienced searcher have to search many bags before they find errors and coins, and that it not easy and quick. Thanks, Daniel, for all that you do to help educate everyone about this hobby and have a great day.
I agree with your assessment. IF it were up for bid there would be someone who would probably bid way too much (and that is on them) and the chance of finding a serious mint error are low - but they are not ZERO. OPEN THAT BAG(s).
Some time ago, I cracked open several rolls of SBA's that were sitting stagnant in my shop. The last roll about half way through I discovered a Indent Struck Obverse, I sent it to ICG, came back MS66!
Nice find.
I had thought about buying bags
I won’t now. Thank you. I’m new at this and I have made many errors.
I’ve always enjoyed picking up odd coins and $2 bills just to spread around, but I didn’t know a consumer could get bagged coins. When my eyes heal from some cataract surgery, I’ll get back to coin roll searches. I like to explore world coins and make the nice copper ones into jewelry pins. They are fun to give away when tipping. Enjoy your new hobby!
Thanks for sharing Daniel. 😎👍
In the next video I would like to see you open a sealed mint bag of Morgan dollars! 😅
I wish!
I would just use them as change in your cash register.
I actually used to buy bags of cents which I still haven't opened from the 70,80s .the problem is the way you store them has to be done properly.also you get alot pf dents in the coins. Anyway if it was me I would Auction those off. But it's ypur choice Daniel. GOOD LUCK.
I would get more than $25.00 worth of enjoyment out of opening them.
I agree with your plan. I havent watched total video yet but will shortly. It should be fun ! Your knowledge and experience with these things is rhe key, and in the end $3-500 profit won or lost is not going to make/break yiu. GO FOR IT !
Well lucky for everyone youre also a You Tuber, not just a coin dealer.
I like these types of videos. It’s kind of neat to see what you find. It’s a gamble but you may be able to make some of of your money back with revenue or put a small bin on the counter by your cash register and sell them for $1.25-$1.50 in a 2x2. Thanks for what you do.
Respect your decision, but I think I would have sold the complete bags as novelty items...would look good in someone's coin room or on display in the shop!
They can still do that.
I wouldn’t but, it would be fun! 😂
That made my day thanks great Chanel I just found your videos recently great stuff
Thank you. I'll check what you have on your site. Also since the dollars were all from the same batch, if one don't have the variety, the chances of all of them having a variety would be very slim.
I purchased sealed envelope proof set once for $10 over an open set. The hype that there is likely a "high value" find is too much. A buyer/collector doesn't know until you open it. It's the Schrödinger's cat situation. I, for one, enjoy seeing/handling a coin for its beauty not it's possible high value. Thank you for opening the bags.
Thanks for opening those bags of Anthony dollars. Yeah, it was anti climactic but very cool bone the less. Please keep doing what you are doing. One of the best if not the best.
Very interesting collection option
I knew you were going to open them LOL !
I was anticipating this video. After you me toned the idea of it I was hoping g you would make a video on these. I really just like the mystery however I've never had much luck with that type of stuff besides your mystery lots and scratch and dent lots lol
The suspense alone is worth $25.00. You made the right choice to open both bags. Had you only opened one, you would have been forced to eventually open the other, as the cat would be "out of the bag" (pun intended). Your chances of someone seeing this video and how Daniel got nothing more than a 1979 bag of duds; they would probably conclude that the 1980's bag is just another "bag of duds." Otherwise, you would have been forced you sit on the '80's bag for sometime before you tried to sell so that people's memories would lapse, and then maybe you could have recovered some of your money. Had there been some goodies in the '79 bag, then the opposite would be true. Either way, I like the suspense of "discovery," even if I wind up losing. It probably won't be the first time I made a mistake. In fact, I've learned so much from the many mistakes I've made that I'm thinking about making a few more.
If anything with the sba get the one with the wide rim a bag of those might be worth opening up I wonder why they never had a silver Susan B Anthony
thanks for the video, It's the chance to get something neat. You know if you didn't open the 80s bag you would be wondering what was in that bag.
There could be planchet fragments in there, and those are quite valuable, though it's unlikely.
I would of had to open it as well
4:46 there's actually a way where you can pull the string from the outside and it'll undo itself. Kind of like the paper bags of cat food back in the day. FYI
I know, but I did this way so it is never sealed again using the string and sold as unsearched.
@@CoinHELPu got it never thought of that I know it's not uncommon to get repackaged product which is unfortunate to the end user.
Thanks Daniel. I’ve wondered how an error coin that can’t go into roll ever leaves the mint.
Open one. sell the other. Flip a coin to choose. ;-)
I have 2 sewn mint bags of copper 1982 D pennies stashed away. I've been debating on whether to open them and see what I can find within them.
Aren't these bags just sold to collectors? I thought the mint sewn bags for circulation are typically in lots much bigger. Like 5,000 cents or 1,000 half dollars.
Hey. At least you found more than Geraldo did.
LOL.
YES OPEN THEM SEE WHAT NEW VARIETYS IF ANY!
Better to know than wonder what might have been.
Local coin shop has a few bags of 1979 pennies. I believe they were $500 bags. They are huge. I don't remember what he wants for them, but that sure struck my curiosity.
And that's the thing with bags, handling and moving them around bangs the coins against each other. Where coins in rolls don't do that.
Makes for a fun video. Thanks, Daniel! 🤞
That was fun
Wow! Broke my heart ❤️
This vid kind of makes me go wha won wha. I bought a sealed $200 1973 bag of Canadian nickel dollars for $250 CAD between 5-10 years ago and still haven’t opened them. Hope when I do mine will be better. 😂
A mix bag of 1999-2000 quarters...I have been tempted.
Surely a human didn’t count them out… you may find something!! (Before the reveal)
Edit: was really cool to see you search the bag like us normies do 😂.. great video Daniel
I would have done the same thing 👍
I'll buy those 1979s!!!
Open one to see if you find anything
so if we put our coins into a coin clip or whatever is made to hold coins, does it hurt the coin over time if we then put all of that into a cheap plastic box. So the coin is in a coin holder of some sort, but do the chemical gasses from the plastic shoe box or ammunition can then tarnish the coin?
What is it about canvas bags that helps coins .
I collect SBA's, searched CHU site but only found a holder book. How do I find these on your site. worth 250/bag atleast (to me).
One of the least attractive coins every put out by the Mint. But good entertainment and kudos for defusing hopeless bidding that would only disappoint.
I would have sold the unopened bags of Susan B Anothony dollars, an ugly coin in my opinion
Hello Daniel
Would the large bags of pennies be machine-filled and you have a better chance???
You would think so.
You should check for rotation
Ok, my mint-sewn bag of 81S SBAs is definitely *not* getting opened.
That was nice of you to do that. It was exciting to see and I learned that it's best to purchase rolls instead of bags if you are looking for higher grade coins.
I expected Ikes.😊
I have a lot of coins that needs to be graded but I’m scared. 😩
Could you sell them individually as uncirculated coins at $2 or $3 dollars a piece? Or a roll of uncirculated SBA's?
I'd have to open them that's me
Change the date to 1879 Carson City - LOL
I wish
Should u open …yes
I have cent bags from 1963 and 1965. Sitting on the floor in my closet. I can’t decide what to do. The hope of error coins intrigues me but the horder in me says to leave them as a history piece 😜. Dang tough decision. Love your videos
I think i found a 79 ddr but am not for sure.
❤
Open them
You’ll see errors I’d buy it. It’s the thrill of finding something good
No,no, no Daniel. Don't open them! Sell them. Make your profit and let us have our fun.
It’s in your blood. U got to open them lol. Good luck
Do you or any of your followers know of any errors that were found in the $25 mint sewn bag of state quarters that were sold from the mint ? Also, if many of the 2004 high or low leaf Wisconsin errors were found in these bags ? Thanks !
No I do not.
Junk money, gas money.
Depends! Are they rare? Would the value of DDOs etc. add up to more than the closed bag. I would open the least valuable one and keep the other. Peace and silver!
You can sell for extra being used for this show. Lol
Sad, I keep checking your site for them in hopes of getting one. Not sure why you just don't sell them for 175 each and make your profit and let other collectors decide. Me ill keep then sealed.
Why are you not watching the video?
Maybe the filled s and better s
Those are NOT errors or varieties, stick with varietyvista.com on what to look for.
Can copper clad coins tone?
All coins have the potential to tone.
