Hello everyone! Thanks so much for watching the video and leaving a comment! Don't forget to subscribe to our channel and also to our new channel, The Lost Tower Diaries, which has a new video out now! ua-cam.com/video/0GI4fV7ELOo/v-deo.html
@marilyndreamwalkermejorado1208 maybe they shouldn't do that much auctioning because there is always the pressure and the emotional aspect and therefore you're sometimes in danger of spending to much money whereas a flea market offers you the opportunities to watch the objects more closely and negotiate for a more pleasant price 😏.
Numismaticus is the box that a specialist collector would keep their treasure in (coins, money, tokens, or other valuable objects of the like). Don’t forget to check the box thoroughly for secret spots for the very valuable coins! This was an unexpected video- a bonus for us. 😅 Happy Birthday, Alex! 🎉❤😊
That Liberty Head nickel from 1884. The American coin is worth between $10-$200 in circulated condition. If it was in pristine condition it would be worth about $8,000. So look at alp those coins even tho they all appear to be in circulated condition still worth the effort. That box is amazing what a buy Alex
Loved this video!!! I am American, but have Scottish and German ancestry. Love to watch everything you two get up to, mudlarking vicariously through you ladies. Thank you
I was a missionary in Romania and I found a CCCP the date on it is 1980 its a Russian soviet coin. Mine is 15 yours is 5 which makes mine smaller than yours. Cool find love your videos.if we translated it it would say Kopeck
Check the value of each coin. There are reason it was collected. I think you will find you really got a great collection. Congratulations and Happy birthday 🎁🎈🎂🎈❤
Yes, please do more videos of auctions, "car boot sales", and general treasure hunting. It's good fun to watch you unpack your finds. Much love from Indiana.
Awesome box , what a wonderful birthday gift. Happy early Birthday Alex. I would love to see you repair the box, auctions, thrifting or anything else you enjoy, here or on Lost Tower Diaries. Thanks for sharing the excitement.
The CCCP is (U)SSSR cyrillic, 5 Kopecks The German Kreuzer is not a token, the Kreuzer was 1/100th of a Guilder The later USSSR coin was 20 kopecks (one ruble = 100 kopecks). I remenber paying 2 Kopecks for a glass of tea on an 1982 TransSiib train. If you wanted sacchar (sugar) it was another 5 kopecks, IIRC. That guter pfenn. means good penny (pfennig)
My grandad, born 1873 had a coin collection and it is in a box almost the same. Very interesting video, would definitely enjoy seeing you restore the box. Thanks xxx
@@higstinator hi, unfortunately I can't when my dad died in 2019 my mum entrusted the collection to my sister. Because of arguments (not my fault) were estranged, it's really sad.
Please show us both sides. I'm loving this!!!!! Never get to see this kind of thing. Here!!!!! Love your show, never miss it!!!!!! And by the way your house and yard are beautiful!!!!!
Great video ladies, keep them coming! The George III coin has been "holed" back in the day when it was in circulation; it was holed by a person who was in possession of it so a string could be ran through and worn around the neck or used to sew it into clothing so it wouldn't be lost. I think it tells a great story and humanizes it.
In Canada it’s not as common to see old coinage. I love it when I find a tiny silver coin with it square hole through it, and that was important and essential to that persons daily life.
The box is very nice , It's very interesting to see different old coins. Thank you so much for sharing us with you . I enjoy the video so much . Be safe and happy ❤❤❤❤
Fun! The American coin is a 5 cent piece (has a "V" on it) called a Liberty nickel and might be worth $24 US dollars or more depending on condition and demand. made of 75% copper 25% nickel. Confusing to think they called it "a nickel", but then "a copper" is used for a cent or one penny. I would like to see more auction treasures too.
Hello ladies, that was a very interesting episode, it is an exciting thing to speculate and then be rewarded with such history, I hope the rest of the coins give you much pleasure as you research their origins, cheers!!🥰🤗🤔💕👌👍🦚
Portugal and Sardinia were written on the slips of paper. Happy Birthday Alex. Rather than drilling holes, wire wrap or get a finding that is for coins. You just don't know how much old coins are worth to someone.
old wooden boxes for small collections are the best. the closest i have is an old tray used for storing metal type face which i display my miniatures in. the one cent Netherlands penny is so beautiful. it would make a gorgeous pendent. maybe fold a worn coin into a ring? lots of possibilities. happy birthday Alex. what a gift! PS take us along on all your adventures - love to see auctions/antique stores etc.
Yes please - love to see you both finding surprising historic treasures at auctions, car boot sales, antique shops…. You have such knowledge on very many items, from your mudlarking finds, so… 👍🏻💪🏻❤❤😃😁
Yall are going to have so much fun looking up all the coins . What a great find. You have made your money back in foreign collection coins and the antique box.
Interesting reveal. Lots of coins. The box itself is awesome. Yes, I would love to see more auctions and such. I love antiques. Thxs for putting the video together. I really enjoyed it.
That was a fun video. I enjoyed looking at the coins and would love to see you restore that lovely box. Yes, please, do more auction pieces. I love seeing old things rediscovered and repurposed.
Loved the video! The box alone is worth the $300. Let alone the history of everything else you got. Happy birthday Alex. Thanks to you both for sharing!
You can make wind chimes out of the Pennies. Be careful as some have key dates that are collectable and some are extremely rare and sort after in any condition! I have plenty from metal detecting but not even close to how many you have now!
Its not disrespectful to not know everything! And you arent ignorant. blessings🙂 Most coins are not worth much at all unless they are in terrific condition, or quite old. Every one different value.
Would I like to see more auction video's? Absolutely yes! Loved this one and would love to see more. I was almost as fascinated in all those colonial coins and tokens as you guys were. And I would equally love to see the restoration of the display box. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your collections, amazing property and interests. Its a joy to have you share this with us. ❤
Loved this video!! I have a small coin collection, spurred by the foreign coins my grandfather gave me. He brought them back from his years serving in WWII with the Royal Canadian Army. I added more foreign coins via pen-pals from around the world. Anywho, fantastic box as well. Beautiful years of wear and patina.
Coins are all fantastic! What a great birthday present 🎉. I love, love, love the wooden box !!! I think the box has had many different lives. So many stories/secrets we will never know! I love this different adventure but keeps with history and new knowledge of different coins. I will be rewatching this video several times to closely review your findings. DO THIS AGAIN!!!! 👍🥳
That's an awesome treasure..... Happy early birthday! My wife and I thoroughly enjoy your adventures... we're not able to do as you too... I'm 70 and she's 63... But thank you for letting us tag along... we look forward to your treasure hunting adventures each week. Thank you!
The box is fantastic, as well as the collection. The British Museum stores many of its coins in such boxes. I saw a video on Anglo-Saxon coins where they were thus stored. Although many of the Victorian coins are worn, many are certainly collectible and may have scarce mint marks. Of course I would like to see some videos of auctions and estate sale finds. Greetings from Texas!

Love the new content. You are both so creative
I agree .
A walk over a British antique flea market accompanying you two wonderful persons would be a lovely experience 😊.

AkA Barber head Nickle. Usually about 10 to 20 USD. They are beautiful coins in my opinion
That American coin is also called a v nickel and is very popular as a collectable.
I was a missionary in Romania and I found a CCCP the date on it is 1980 its a Russian soviet coin. Mine is 15 yours is 5 which makes mine smaller than yours. Cool find love your videos.if we translated it it would say Kopeck

yes please auctions,restoring ect , i so enjoy what you guys do.
I would love to see you restore that box and going to auctions. Bring it on! :)
it would be much for valuable as is. i made the mistake long ago. People tend to overdo and the ruin them
They have a Mother Load of goodies, Real Wealth
Over handing coins without curators gloves leaves hand oils on them and risks damages to the coin. WAKE UP
Don't restore box, it's more valuable as is.
@@Ken-gy1sr don't be so rude. pecker head.
Yes, please do more videos of auctions, "car boot sales", and general treasure hunting. It's good fun to watch you unpack your finds. Much love from Indiana.
Awesome box , what a wonderful birthday gift. Happy early Birthday Alex. I would love to see you repair the box, auctions, thrifting or anything else you enjoy, here or on Lost Tower Diaries. Thanks for sharing the excitement.
Repair as needed but dont restore leave it in its 200 year old state of condition Happy Birthday Alex❤🎂🍷
Yes absolutely! Take us to auctions and on all of your adventures!!! Bless you!
I'd love to see you both hunting for interesting curiosities at car boot sales. 💕
Necklace, bracelets, Christmas dangles, perhaps earrings and pendants? Basically you both have so much talent you don’t require help.❤️❤️❤️
Put some of the coins in resin to make paperweights, jewellery, etc.....
Wind chimes !?
I was just about to say the same thing use the copper coins for jewellery etc!
Omg Christms Tree ornaments 😃 I would literally throw my money at them LOL
Before cutting up 250 year old coins I would have an expert look around them regardless of condition.
Yes I love watching furniture videos and it was fun watching auctions
The CCCP is (U)SSSR cyrillic, 5 Kopecks
The German Kreuzer is not a token, the Kreuzer was 1/100th of a Guilder

Wow! Thank you!!!
YES! Film the restoration of the box! Would enjoy the auctions as well!
Happy Birthday Alex🎉 thank you for sharing your birthday gift 🎁

My grandad, born 1873 had a coin collection and it is in a box almost the same. Very interesting video, would definitely enjoy seeing you restore the box. Thanks xxx
You should make a video of your grandad's collection.
@@higstinator hi, unfortunately I can't when my dad died in 2019 my mum entrusted the collection to my sister. Because of arguments (not my fault) were estranged, it's really sad.
Happy birthday young lady! You and your mom do a great job!
Scottish Detectorist knows a lot about coins. Im sure you have people who will help. German is Pfennig. Austria is Kreuzer. Gron en Ommel Netherlands.

I would love to see anything you gals feel like filming. I thoroughly enjoy it all.
I love your old house. Your views on your property are breathtaking. I live in a quakers house that was built in 1820.
I’m all for more videos-I would watch the two of you open anything, dig for whatever, go all the places you go-just anything and everything!
Would love the restoration of the box and all the other stuff you mentioned….can’t get enough of the two of you!❤
