Traitors to Coin Collecting!?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
- Welcome to Polar Currency and video number 59 - Talking Money #1. This is a new interview series in addition to the Currency Roundtable. Talking Money conversations will have a similar format as the Roundtable but with a more personal look into why people collect paper currency. In this first interview I get a chance to sit down with three coin collectors who have recently began collecting currency - in a big way. This isn’t about coins vs. paper but asking how and why they have crossed over to currency to collect both.

Is it called Paper Currency or Paper Money? Because it’s not paper at all. But I am a Paper Money Collector and like Paper Money Collecting as a Hobby. The Hobby is called Numismatics and if you collect you are a Numismatist. I also love History and work for a historical society and love collecting a Dollar or Dollars specifically the U.S. Dollar or is it the US Dollar? I have recently started collecting Obsolete Bank Notes or Obsolete Banknotes? Is Banknote one or two words. Today’s currency is made by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) and issued by the Federal Reserve Bank which issues Federal Reserve Notes that have a green seal and green serial numbers. At one point in time they issued large size banknotes called Federal Reserve Bank Notes. The Treasury Department used to issue Treasury Notes, Gold Certificates, Silver Certificates, and Legal Tender Notes, United States Notes and National Bank Notes. There were two sizes of U.S. currency. They were the Small Size Banknote, Small Size Bank note and the Large Size Banknote, Large Size Banknote. Before 1996 they were called Small Head Banknotes, Small Head Bank Note and after that they were called Monochrome Bank Note, Monochrome Banknotes. Silver Certificates.
Thanks for having us on. It was a lot of fun! And we dragged Gunny over the finish line finally!
THANK YOU GenX - and you were the one doing the heavy lifting.
Great video Dan! Your editing is phenomenal. Thank you for inviting me to participate. Thank you Dan, Gunny and GenX for your unique perspectives on collecting and the hobby in general. Looking forward to more 😎🤙🏼
THANK YOU Dean for coming on as a collector and a friend. Appreciate where you are coming from.
Great stream, Dan. I really enjoyed hearing these guys stories. I always learn something from your videos.Thanks again and please keep up the great work.
Thanks Jeff Davis! Best name in currency collecting!
a sincere thanks to all of you and Stu for igniting an interest in currency collection.
You are very welcome! The more the merrier!
Thank you for letting me be apart of this video. It was fun to get all the info from all 3 of you, helping me fulfill a childhood dream.
THANK YOU Gunny! And you are the one that made that dream happen. Sincere congrats again on a awesome purchase.
@@PolarCurrency Stay tuned..... Currency show next month.
Another great video! Quite nice to hear a coin collectors' perspective in their early transition to collecting Banknotes as well. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks and I thought so too. Some luck to be able to talk to all three at about the same time.
I love currency notes.They are mini works of art.I occasionally pick up a note here and there but most are outside my budget.My favorites are the Chieftan and Buffalo notes.Thanks for a great video.
Those are two of mine also and they came from the same series! Check out some Obsoletes you may find yourself going down a rabbit hole.
⭐Great discussion.⭐ Enjoyed watching this. Got me wanting to attend another FUN show ! 👍
Thanks Ontario - especially if that's the "small" FUN show!
Look who’s drafting coin guys into currency? Good job guys! Things like this are also great for content creators as well. Knowing what FAQs people have certainly helps for designing videos targeted to answer those questions.
Thanks Stu! Fun to talk to three folks that are finding that coins aren't the only thing to collect.
Another outstanding talk, Polar, thank you so much for all you do for the currency community here on UA-cam. I really look forward to your videos!
Thanks for the kind words - pretty easy to do when you have a great community!
Good to see the excitement each guy has for their collecting!
Always fun to see that new fever!
Great content! Keep up the great work Polar!
Thanks! Appreciate you hanging in there!
Hi Dan!!! Amazing!! Really great conversation!!! All three guests have a great goals for their collectin journey!!! It was great question to ask!!!!
Thanks Roman - We still need to talk. My apologies have just been too bust. Expect a random call from me soon!
@@PolarCurrencySounds great!!!
Great show! Love all the feedback on currency
Thanks for the view and the kind words.
Another great video Dan with some very interesting guests describing their journey from coins to currency collecting.
I am a big fan of Dean's
Some very cool $500 Notes
Thanks GD - Dean is a very good man. And yes they each picked up some great $500. Thanks for the support.
Enjoyable interviews! I struggled with whether to collect coins or banknotes...and have successfully collected both for some time.
Great video, Dan. So many puns to take away that I don’t know where to start. Let’s just say: that was a FUN video
It was a fun to talk to three "newer" folks to paper - and I appreciate that they still want to collect coins. Thanks for the support!
@@PolarCurrency is that called a crossover?
Loved it. Wonderful insights. I dont feel its a bad thing to collect both. Glad I am not alone.
Thanks Benjamin! You're not alone - I have my 1 ounce U.S. Dollar & sovereign silver, U.S. Type half dollar collections and mint sets for me!
Hi Dan,
I wanted to respond a week ago or so. As I watched your video twice now.
Thanks for another great video with your three new guests. Always learning a lot from each video. I enjoyed everyone conversations. There goals of what they want to collect next.
Congrats to Gunny on his awesome $500 note pick up. As well to Gen-X $500 note pick up. I’m still in the hunt for one of them too.
And to Dean you have a very nice collection of the Canada 1937 series notes. Very cool.
Just want to say to Gunny so sorry to hear about your father’s passing in 2020. ✝️
Wishing you all the best on your hunt for great notes. Take care.🙏
Bill 😎👍
Thanks Bill kind words and appreciate the support!
Great video! You and Stu really do a lot for the currency collecting community with the information you guys provide in your videos, so thank you for all you guys do!
I'm just a schmuck who likes to talk but thanks for the kind words and you are welcome - just fun to do.
I have a $500 I got years ago for $800, and it graded a 40, but with a rust spot. I'm still happy with it.
A friend of mine that started working at a bank had a $500 bill come in only a month ago, but the bank wouldn't take it because they're out of circulation. 😢
You're lucky to have that $500 Mark! Weird the bank wouldn't take it - they still are legal tender. Appreciate the support.
That was a great watch. Dan, you are growing the currency community!
Thanks Joe - just hoping to have some good collecting conversation.
Thank you for another great video. I'm not a currency collector but a coin collector. Mostly ancients (Greek and Roman) and British. After listening to your show I will be adding some currency to my collection. I agree with your comment regarding UA-cam coin videos and how it has become the world of flipping with little or no content on the history of coins. Slab it and it you don't like the grade you get, crack it out and send it in to the other company. That's why a love your channel so much. You talk about the history, not about how much money you are going to make. The way the hobby should be. Cheers.
Thanks for the kind words and those are two types of coins that think I could get into - also have an interest in the old Canadian coins. Ancients I'm just terrified.
@@PolarCurrency They scared me when I first started years ago, but with buying books, learning about ancients and dealing with ancient coin dealers around the world it has been a very good experience. I've only had a problem once, a coin of Alexander the Great, stolen somewhere in transit from overseas. Luckily it wasn't an expensive coin. That would be an interesting topic to explore with the Numismatic Crime Information Center. How dealers/buyers/collectors are being preyed upon over the last few years and what they need to do to protect themselves. Cheers
Awesome video guys. You got a Sweet Puerto Rico note GenX. Great $500 note Gunny. I think the currency is becoming less affordable now that it seems that people are collecting it. Great seeing the currency community represented. I’ve found it funny about the five of the educational series. If you really think about it, how many obsolete currency had bare breast shown and no one had a problem.
RNR - you are so correct. There is documentation stating that someone was "upset" but that's not why they were discontinued. It had fantastic design that did poorly in use. Thanks RNR!
Really enjoyed the video - it strikes close to home. I've been traitorous myself for 10 years now! Seems very familiar from the currency track I'm on now.
Oh you treacherous collector! Glad you enjoyed it and crossed over. One can do both - even for a man. (At least my wife keeps hoping...)
Hello, I recently came across very interesting, not well note, the note that is very undervalued today because of lack of knowledge. It’s 1880 $1 Legal Tender Fr 28a. This note was discovered recently, and you can’t even find this note value listed in many currency books.
That is impressive! Only discovered in 2017? I had to check Heritage Auction for sales and yes it is very undervalued even in the new Friedberg Paper Money book. Very interesting with just that small detail added to the back. I was not aware - thanks!
another great video!
Thanks Emanuel - appreciate you stopping by.
Good stuff!
Thanks Shawn
I think Polar likes the Ike's because of the hairstyle 😊
Mark - you know you're not wrong. Maybe for hair plugs?
Dan where’s Joe when you need him to pronounce DaLONega?
Is that Spanish? Is it? In Georgia? I wouldn't know it if you said it was!
@@PolarCurrency porque no
@blkcrypto So it looks like it's from a Cherokee word, so I'm not sure I would be much help 😅
@@TheCoinBoxChannel lol
ahhhhhh more coin guys moving over to the dark side!!
Yes! That is the evil plan - missing your next video!
@@PolarCurrency another currency dump soon! Summer has been crazy busy
