    I went from son of a coin dealer, to hobbyist, to collector, to working for a dealer, to running my own coin and collectibles business. When I can, I very much enjoy watching peoples videos, when they are done appropriately. I have to say, this is among the best video i've ever watched from a youtuber. Superbly done, incredible information, extremely articulate, and easy to understand. The videos of the working press and photos alone are scholarly. I sent it to my father and he said he watched it three times just to absorbed the information about the minting process he was not aware of (the stretching of the metal sheets). Keep up the videos!! This was simply excellent. THANK YOU for making this

      Ryan thank you so much for your kind and articulate comment. Coming from a seasoned coin collector/dealer it means a great deal to me. I'm relatively new to numismatics and I'm having a great time learning and collecting. It's a fantastic hobby. So glad you enjoyed. Thanks again.

    This is the best video you have done. I spent a couple years working in a shop that had a bunch of old flywheel presses that were originally designed for water power. I loved those old things. Those presses ran for well over 100 yrs until the Chinese started turning out finished products for less than our cost for raw stock. They all ended up getting scrapped.

    • @Dr.G

    Absolutely brilliant video, doc. I had no idea what a work horse that old press had been - it certainly earned its pension!!!

There is a lot of benefit in seeing the final grades after a careful examination from our point if view of each coin. I can see some flaws in this whole grading system, but its still very helpful in my learning curve. Thanks for sharing

    Hello Dr G ! Simply put, this video, to any coin collector, is gold ! But, my friend, as you probably remember I am a Morgan Silver Dollar collector. Your video is more than gold ! Since our last encounter, I have completed my Business Strike collection of 104 coins. I have only upgraded one of my Carson City Morgan Dollars. I think You remember to whom and where my original coin found a home. I continue to upgrade my collection, The two beautiful Morgan Dollars you have shown, are high on my upgrade list. Thank You ! for all your hard work, time and research in the making of this wonderful video. It is very much appreciated by me ! :-))

    • @Dr.G
      @Dr.G  6 років тому

      I knew you would like this one. :) Congratulations on completing a great collection, definitely a rare accomplishment. But more importantly your reputation for being extremely generous is carved in stone as far as I'm concerned. I'll never forget watching that video when Ian realized exactly what you had given him. That was worth much more than the coin will ever be worth. Your legacy is safe with me. Thanks for the kind words. Be well my friend.

Maybe 15 min. Since it will be a continuation video anyway. There is so much stuff I would like to share with each coin, even with the length of time I spend already, there is so much info I'm leaving out. I have been blessed with a long attention span. But I know most people can't watch much more that 4 or 5 min. LOL Nice to hear from you my friend.

There are also lots of great books on Morgans. It's also fun to collect any ephemera, or old west stuff that would go along with these coins.

    Comps are $575 for your 1883-CC DMPL MS63 PCGS coin today. Back when you made this video it was a $250 coin. Morgans are on fire.

      Yeah not good for us collectors. Everything is more expensive to buy. Investors and dealers are happy. I don’t sell so hopefully it will cool down again. Thanks for the update. 👍

    I just found your channel & subbed on the spot ! I watched & re-re-re watched this video and took LOTS of notes.
    I was lucky enough to find a good amount of cool coins metal detecting. I've found coins before some ok but nothing to get too excited about till now after finding a bunch of Morgan Silver Dollars and a few more since finding the first ones. Some are tarnished abit but most of the ones that were wrapped up & all & in a box are super shiney. Found them in an open field where a house from the 1800's used to be and a few other homes that was torn down in the 1930's.

    Thanks G. Great video, new sub. I appreciate the history. I recently sold back to the bank I bought it from, a Morgan dollar, that had to be a "test dollar". To insure the die was destroyed. If it hasn't been melted down then theres a chance that Morgan, with the big X cut across that ladys cheek, is still here in Europe somewhere. Same old story. Didn't know what I had when I had it. I thought" Who could do that to such a nuce coin?" I now know better. I think it was 1873 too. Thanks for sharing.

    Enjoyed watching your video on Carson City and Morgan Silver Dollars. It was educating to say the least. Being a novice at coin collecting, I enjoyed your video tremendously, especially on the topic of the Carson City Mint Museum. It helps in my appreciation, understanding and working knowledge of my new hobby, which broadens with each passing day. Looking forward to your next video and the education lesson that's bound to accompany it. Take care.

    I must say EXCELLENT historical video. Especially enjoyed learning more about the CC mint presses. It’s on my list of places to visit. I concur with others below I thought that 94 Morgan would cut a 64. Either or still a great coin!
