Coin Collectors: This Information Will Save You THOUSANDS $$$
Вставка

- In this video I talk about the dangers of PVC damage to collectible coins. It is an unfortunate part of coin collecting history that many manufacturers of coin preservation products used PVC plastics in their products. PVC leaches harmful chemicals out onto your valuable coins and leaves damaging green residue on them. Think your carson city morgan dollar is safe, protected in plastic? Think again. Watch this video to find out how to keep your silver coins like Peace dollars, walking liberty half dollars, and much more safe from dangerous chemicals and save you thousands of dollars in the process.

Does the 2x2 Double Pocket Vinyl Flip BCW work???
frick I had a Australian 1966 80% silver coin uncirculated in pvc I just took it out thanks.
Awesome! Glad to help
Thanks for sharing the info. It will help in the future
Thank you for the reminder. I checked my coin collection and found a restruck 1 Thaler Maria Theresa coin that was in a PVC flip. No damage yet, but thanks for reminding me to take it out.
Thank you! Im new to collecting and didnt know this.
Very informative video. Thanks for the good advice on storing your coins.
Thanks man! I appreciate the detailed explanation and money saving tip.
Great information, definitely worth a subscribe! Thankyou!
This also applies to currency bills as well, though more dramatic effects happen such as the paper becoming brittle, or the ink basically liquefying, or both...
I use Supersafe brand top loader holders for my bills and clear hard polystyrene 2x2's and roll tubes for my coins...
PVC = Degradation in value for anything it 'protects'...
Thanks for the tip on that one man. Learning something new every day lol
5 years old video - but i truly caught the value of the content so: thanks a lot!
Thanks for the information. I enjoyed the video very much.
Make sure you keep some of the Mylar flips on-hand everyone!! Grading companies require coins to be shipped in those plastic flips! Thought I was already subbed.. Now subbed for sure, happy stacking!!
Glad to have you! Welcome to the Silverpicker Squad!
great guy's! thanks for your resourcefull information you shared to us.more power to you buddy.
My pleasure!
Lots of great info. Thank you so much!

PVC is why I started to use coin trays instead of holders/ albums
Smart
Well said my friend!!!

THANKS GREAT MAN FOR YOUR KIND TIPS😃👍❤
Thanks for the tips, I have tons of the 4 by 4 cases so I put my coins in there. Thanks again
Excellent, just make sure it's a non-reactive plastic
Very simple and very helpful, thank you very much
My pleasure, Nathan!
Thank you for sharing this it saved a lot of my coins
thanks dude! I subscribed!!!!
Oh man thank you so much for the tips
Unfortunately, many modern storage sleeves are “loosy-goosy” and don’t have PVC, so that’s not a great way to test them.
I saw another video that showed that if you burn a little of the plastic, the flame turns green if it has PVC, so I’ll be testing all of my non-brand name plastic products now.
Unfortunately, right. Lots of people get hoodwinked by those TV sellers
Great info. Much appreciated. Mylar and acid free papers or cardboards.
Very helpful buddy! I’m doing a complete change out on all my coins today 👍🏼
So glad to hear it!! That's what this video is all about!
Please can you give any coin by delevery from india
Oh wow, fantastic info. Thanks
Glad to help!
As a newbie, thank you! I’m trying to sort through bags of ziplocks full of coins from my father!
Thank you!
Thank you so much! My entire collection was in PVC! I will fix that now!
Glad I could help!
@@Silverpickeris it safe to just keep my collection in my grandma purse
Other than PVC, storing coins in paper napkins can be hazardous. I found a wad of old tissue paper containing war-era 10 penny iron coins and they'd all corroded. Another collection was all safe.
And I'd used 80s/90s leftover memo pad paper to roll regular circulated coins before reading about paper acidity, so I checked to make sure my copy paper follows the ISO 9706 (acid-free) standard and rerolled all of them with that paper.
Silver and billon coins are flipped without further consideration in mylar and cardboard 2x2s.
Good to know thanks for the info
Man, here in Brazil, most holders doesn't have pvc in their composition. But thank you for the recomendation! Greetings from Brazil! 👍🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thanks for the tip
My pleasure
I am from India and you are doing a great job... It's very useful information
Thanks for the silver saving info
My pleasure Joako!
Excellent article
Nice Video. You now what you talking about 👍
Can pvc plastic flips be rigid too? I bought some not too long ago on amazon and didn’t check the material, they are rigid and also have a hard time staying folded on their own
Although I dont have or use pvc slips or holders, and also being only 6 months into the hobby, this is still invaluable information and I will never consider pvc in the future.
Hey @silverpicker what about binder pocket pages, that are not rigid plastics? Are they pvc, and even though I put my coins in 2x2's will they damage my coins, bars, or other things I have in them?
I use the mylar and cardboard holders for regular coins and the expensive ones I store them in quadrum capsules. PVC is awful but unfortunately very commonly used.
Thank you very much..I also seen milk spots in graded cases too. What about the plastic coin tubs that fit a whole roll?
I've got a few tubes of silver coins such as maples and eagles and they have milk spots in tubes but some were spotted when I bought them but some have changed in the tube
Thanks man
Wait, I just looked at some of my 1oz bars and some coins I bought already in some type of softer maliable (heat sealed) plastic. Should I cut them open and put into mylar slips and the cardboard 2x2's?
Had a couple in PVC, glad I saw this.
Wow man thanks u saved me had few coins in bend flips changed them to the good flips
Thanks! I use the hard plastic storage cases
Great!
UA-camWatcher the hard ones are good
Informative video, like!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed
This was one of the first video's of your's i watched. and it helped me save some nice coins! because i bought some Franklins at the time one was a 55 proof FBL i got it at a good deal and i think a 58, some other's their in a Album now but yea man. i checked a bunch of coins i bought that where in those cheap PVC clear flips!
Thanks for being such a good fan! Always appreciate your comments :)
I bought an uncirculated walking liberty half that’s been in one of those for years!
And what does it look like?
Good video. 👍
Thanq very much
I've always bought and stuck with 2x2 flips
Thank man~!
Thank you So Much. My silver coin was in PVC.
Glad I could help! Share the video to spread the word!
thanks this helped me so much im looking for good quality coin holders
Glad I could help!
I had this happen to me recently with a wheat. It was a key date, I was pretty upset.
Good info
Time to buy some mylar flips.. Just started going through my collection after 10 years in storage and found a few Morgan's with green rims.. Was Wondering what it was and then came across this video! Thank you!!!
This is honestly the kind of comment that makes me want to continue making videos. So happy to help you preserve your collection!
How can you tell if a coin has been dipped in acetone? Does the acetone react with the silver?
It should not be noticeable. The idea is that the acetone reacts with the pvc but not the silver
Tou can't tell, therefore it's not considered cleaning in the field of numismatics. Acetone does not react with silver nor gold. But unfortunately doesn't clean pvc damage either. It will wash a fresh fingerprint or fake patina some sellers on ebay put on coins (actually black grease which I personally find disgusting and might cover some defects on purpose). Acetone doesn't remove real patina either so don't worry. Make sure you don't scratch the coin with fingers or anything. Just hold it by the edge with clean fingers and dip it in the chemically pure acetone, but do not allow it to touch the container and don't touch the obverse or the reverse of the coin with anything if you want to keep the "uncleaned" status for your precious coin. But if you do have pvc damage, you might need to physically scratch the green demon away. I find it works well with matchsticks or wooden popsicle handles under a big loupe, as the wood is softer than metal and the overall damage will be held at minimum. It did happen at least once to see pvc damage so bad I had to use an Xacto knife. I did scratch the coin, but with pvc damage it was only worth the melt value anyway.
You have any tips for getting coins on a budget
Great advice..I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't already have this knowledge. Thank you silver picker! 👍
Interesting stuff Silverpicker! Note to self... dont use PVC flips :D. Looks like I'll be sticking to capsules and coin tubes going forward.
Awesome! You're future self will be super happy!
I bought some Guardhouse uPVC flips. Are those safe for coin storage?
Also 2x2 mylar flips used to be made with pvc. Around the late 90's when they discovered pvc ruined coins they started making them with mylar.
Really good info. I didn't know that.
Thank you i just emptyed my book out i was wondering y that book was so cheap it broke on me the very first time i used it
Another collection saved!
Thank you I spent 26 dollars on a binder and after watching this video I'm taking all my coins out.
Better to lose $26 than your whole collection!
Ziplock bags in Europe are mostly made of ldpe (low density polyethyelne) which are also safe. Mylar contains polyethylene terephthalate (pet).
Hello! I was curious to know if the same rule applies to polythene resealable zip lock bags?
Is there any way you can make it non toxic plastic
Im 14 yrs old 2 months ago i bought a coin book the outside is pvc but the slots the coins are inserted is non pvc in 100 coins I can see 5 with the green stuff will the others also get can you help me please ?
Couple questions. Black or white foam rings on airtight , do they have PVC? 2. Let's say I bought a coin I suspect as being cleaned, but cleaned well .... to well . Should I submit it to a grading company for restoration prior to grading, not grade it at all . Its perfect at 10x and an ms66 is like 20k . But like I said to perfect for its age ....have you had any experience with how the big 2 restore and grade post restoration well cleaned coins ?
Some of my coins got damaged in so called good 2x2 coin holders.....how to distinguish between reactive and non reactive plastic....????
I've heard that pvc has a strong smell of plastic to it.
just use acrylic coin capsules like Lighthouse/Leuchtturm and you'll be safe. The cheap holders are not to be trusted. Small ziplock bags are polyethylene and could be safe too, but coin capsules are better IMHO
What about bcw vinyl coin flips
Hi I'm currently collecting strictly British coins only but I have a Kennedy half dollar and I would like to know why its made to look like silver but the rim is copper
I just moved all my coins that were in PVC two different holders
thank you
My pleasure!
Thanks i have a 1926 coin in pvc and i took it out thanks
I am a young collector from Philippines i have a 1930 coin but I don't have a holder can you make a video making a DIY coin holder
ifrit 8 | I use trading card sleeves as homemade coin holders but I don’t know if they contain pvc or not
I recently ordered some silver from apmex and they came in those sealed plastic bags. Should I take them out of this plastic?
are zip lock are pvc?
I have some of the Rwanda lunar series silver coins ( still in there mint plastic packaging ) does anyone know if they are P.V.C or not ? . The coins still look good but i wouldn't want to remove them if the packaging is safe to store them in.
Where did you find that coin
How can I check my 2x2s?
good to know
Does it damage gold too?
I have used coin flips like that all the time but I have never had any corrosion or ruined coins
I wouldn't do that if I were you. It can takes years and years before you notice anything. Then one day, you've lost your whole collection's value
Are the dollar coin flips ok for old silver coins?
I have a ton of those Israeli coins in my collection... particularly Menorah coins different designs from different years.... what is the solution to keep the OGP sort of in tact with the COA that has much info... etc. plus the vynal holder has info imprinted.
I have thought about transferring them all into a Coin World type slab, but don't want to devalue by
I wish that they (Israeli) would come up with a product with a solution....
Beeswax, oil or Helium gas intrinsic capsule. Rinse with low ionic solvent then distilled water and dry for display.
Hi silverpicker I'm a fan question where can I buy one of those oh btw I learned a lot from you thank you I was gonna buy a coin album that has pvc but I saw this vid and thank you.
So glad to hear that my video saved you!
@@Silverpicker Always happy thank you so much 😁👍 This thing is a life saver bro
Acetone dip is not considered cleaning, as acetone doesn't actually react with silver at all, and it surely doesn't remove pvc damage
What about the airtight hard plastic coin cases?
