This came into my notifications with no name and no profile pic. It might be a glitch but you're the only person I saw this happen to. Just wanted to let you know!
I am shocked that a professional numismatist such as yourself would be so unappreciative of those Nazi coins in such fantastic condition. The vast majority of people on this planet understand that the Nazi's were evil, wanting to own one of the coins minted in their state however, does not make you one of them. I am part Jewish, and have a couple of coins from the Reich myself, yet despise everything they stood for. I would love those coins in my collection. They are in great condition. Whatever happened to "silver is silver"? Congrats on 100k (soon)!
Why would you say he didn't appreciate them. He literally said not to ask to buy them because they won't be for sale, meaning he wants them for his collection.
@@brentgolden5572 Since he doesn't want them in his collection, and is not selling them, I like to know why prices were posted for them and where they are going if they are getting valued above silver smelt value.
I totally agree. What is shocking is how censorious North Americans are becoming - every bit as restrictive as the regimes they claim to despise. How pointless to refuse to sell a coin - you may as well ban coins of Nero or Caligula. They had bad regimes as well! This guy is either not a professional, or America is truly sinking in the mire.
I personally find the 3rd Reich coins quite interesting. Now I am by no means a Nazi or anything like that I just am really into history the good and bad. Although there is a lot of sad and horrible history around that coin I think it also depends on how it got to where it did . My family members have some Nazi stuff that one of my relatives brought back from WW2 and he took it all home as war souvenirs. When I look at those items I don't see the sadness of the Holocaust but I see the victory of America and the defeat of the Nazis. American solders would even take home flags with the soldiers names written on them. This is known as a capture flag. Agen, when I see this I think of Victory and not sadness and racism. Beleve me very few people who would like that coin in their collection are neo Nazis.
finally someone who specks the truth nothing wrong with owning nazi silver i was actually looking for a nice example of this coin its like owning a stalin lenin or mao coins its like why do people collect those when they were blood thirty commies that committed crimes against humanity
I totally agree. I am jewish. My great-grandfather was also a jew. He fought in the US army in WWII and helped to liberate the same concentration camps that my great-grandparents on the other side of my family were interned in (they were interned in camps such auschwitz, dachau, parchnitz, the lodz ghetto, and more). He brought back a Nazi flag and other memorabilia in order to remember the atrocities he witnessed. History isn't pretty. But if we try to erase it or forget it, we are doomed to repeat it.
There is nothing wrong with owning nazi coins, history isn't always pretty. But these objects serve as a reminder of what humanity went thru. I don't know why he wouldn't sell them. The native Americans were, and still are brutally murdered, but he doesn't have a problem selling those coins.
I'm picking a couple up myself tomorrow. Love history, good silver content. Nothing to be ashamed of. There haven't been Nazis for a very long time. It's a shame there's an impulse to pre-apologize or rationalize your interests to strangers.
@@Silverpicker Aw, that would really suck if it was. A while back I bought a collection of old U.S. silver from the 1820s-1880s and nearly every coin was cleaned. It's just something to be expected for old coins but sometimes you just have to settle for a good detailed coin instead of one that's not cleaned.
I like the metaphor of American steel beating the Nazi silver, a base metal that won out in the end. If you don't know what to do with the coins, I suggest seeing if a local Holocaust memorial museum will take them.
As a historian and coin collector, Third Reich (1933 to 1945) coinage is in my collection. Even as early as 1934, the Nazi's were taken over every little part of everyday German life, and that included the coinage. Coinage was propaganda for the Nazi's, and that 5 Reichsmark is a high silver (90%) statement of a strong economy. The 2 Reichsmark coin was 62.5% silver. Both coins have edge inscriptions promoting national socialist ideology. Yes, you are right, the history behind these coins is totally sordid, but all 4 of my grandparents were involved in the collective efforts of humanity to remove the horrible Nazi's from power. Hence these coins are a thought provoking, but necessary part of my collection.
People will judge you for anything man. I collect North Korean notes. But the history of the Koreas are so interesting. It's crazy to see how different the two areas are. Technically Korea is just one country ruled by two people. Not two separate countries.
the word on the flip for the 1827 half means "40" in (misspelled) Polish. Guy probably spoke Polish and didn't want anyone to know how much he paid for his coins.
It's fun watching you go through the coins. I am just getting back into collecting after a long hiatus. I started back in buying PCGS MS-69 ASEs starting at 2022 and working back. I have world coins, U.S. coins and U.S. bank notes. I just started looking at my collection and rediscovering things that I forgot I had. I do have several Nazi coins in my world coin collection. I think it is worth having them as a reminder so that history cannot repeat itself.
I’m not seeing any original mint luster on that seated quarter, so it might be cleaned. Considering the age of the PVC flip, it might have been sold in an era where cleaning was still standard practice.
Pretty nice stuff. Seems like a chaotic mix of a collection, maybe the collector just opportunistically snapped up what he/she liked. I have a lot of coins with "weighty" history, the ancient world was extremely harsh and brutal with a lot of impulsive and sick autocrats. Owning a coin isn't glorifying the people who struck it, it's being interested in the things which happened before us. If you choose to keep those coins it's far from quartering a psychopath or indulging in evil. With today's ever growing cancel culture I get a little worried what's going to happen to a lot of history, if it's forgotten it won't be taught. That being said, coins are not going to be the artifact that keeps WW2 in our collective memory, but it's still pretty cool to get to own pieces of it, from all sides. History shouldn't be an avenue for self-expression.
If I were you I'd keep them. One of the silver linings of the history of those coins is the creation of the state of Israel. The third Reich is probably the ugliest cog in recent times of our history as human beings, but it is and forever will be a part of what happened, and those coins are little pieces of it. I have some myself, and admire them as coins and as history without in any way admiring the ideologies associated with them.
I agree 100% with you. I own many coins with weighted history as well, including third reich coins and I don't glorify or "reviere" them or the history behind them and I definitely am not a neo nazi. I do have personal history with both sides of WW2 and think it's very interesting and a good reminder of the evil in this world.
@@colejosephalexanderkashay683 I get the anger, but I think that's kind of a rash and emotional response. One of the things the Nazis were known for after all was the destruction of books and symbols they did not like. It's kind of like any other censorship or cancel culture - and I think if the coins aren't publicly displayed the public shouldn't really take any issue with them. Melting some coins is not going to change what the Nazis did or save any lives, on the contrary keeping the artifacts and discussing the memories MIGHT possibly prevent such events in the future -if preventing such things is even possible. But I get the impulsive emotional reaction. I hope coins like this are not melted though. The Romans used to practice "damnatio memoriae" where inscriptions and images of people they did not like were scratched out of obliterated, and that has made it harder for us today to understand what really happened back then. These coins are an opportunity to teach someone about why WW2 happened and what the Third Reich was and what were the things which they stood for. I hope they make it into someone's hands who understands these things, if Max decides not to keep them.
What you said, Mark, is basically what I meant in the video. I'm not against owning these coins. In fact, I totally agree with you that "erasing" them from history would be a huge mistake and counter productive. I'm not willing to sell them to a random person I don't know because I don't want the symbols to be revered. I would sell them, however, to a person who I know wants to own them to preserve history.
Its absolutely insane and outrageous that you put the 24:08 5 peso mexican coin as “25¢” thats literally face value.. nobody will offer you at 5 pesos that shit, im pretty sure you undervalue a lot of this stuff like the 5 fucking dollar MS merc dime
I have two Mark 2 and a Mark 5 all 1939 to 1942. You can pick them up on Ebay. I think it is a interesting part of history and I'm glad to have them in my collection even though I don't agree with their ideology.
*I really enjoyed this particular video mate. Will you send those gorgeous US coins for grading? I would love to see their grades in a special unboxing video. ;)*
Silverpicker you are the best coin collector and unboxing and your the reason why I started collecting foreign coins/bank notes. Could you please make a video about foreign coins or about collecting foreign coins?
hey silver picker I have several silver mint sets. would it be worth pulling them out of the cases and having the coins sent to ngc or psgc for grading
I collect the Weimar Republic, Nazi, German Empire, Modern Germany, and ancient Germanic tribes coins as I am really passionate about learning the German history and how atrocities alike could be prevented, is there any way I could come into possession of those, I know you said not to ask to buy but maybe I could trade some of my silver
I dont understand the thought process of assuming all potential buyers have some sort of reverence for nazi Germany. I mean ok you dont want it in your collection. But to outright not sell to anybody, such an important reminder of a terrible regime, is strange to me. I'm uncomfortable with them too, but history buffs or foreign collectors that want it in their collection to complete a set, could want it purely for numismatic reasons.
@@lightningphil100 yeah i was thinking the same. It's an awful part of history that will hopefully never repeat and that coin is a piece of that history but i think it's fine to add to someone's collection.
@@lightningphil100 Yeah, for me it’s just a coin, which represented a dark age in history and which is a reminder that this time should never happen again. Idk why someone shouldn’t have it in his or heir collection, even without political thoughts. I know that Silverpicker is Jewish, maybe from this direction he doesn’t want to sell it or have it around. No offense against him, love his channel and following almost three years :)
I love the channel and silverpicker too. Not trying to sway his point of view but just commenting on my point of view. I am not Jewish nor do I condone nazi Germany so I cannot feel what Silverpicker and so many others still feel even decades later. And only a couple generations removed.
I may not have explained it well enough in my video. It's not that I don't want to sell it at all. It's that I don't want to sell it to someone I don't know. Also, I don't know if I agree that it's possible that someone "could want it purely for numismatic reasons." I think history and context are inextricably linked to numismatics. In any case, I don't take offense :) I'm glad you liked the video and took the time to share your thoughts
25:00 Last week i bought one from 1938 in a similar condition. Paid 20 swiss francs for it. It's 0900 silver and almost 12,5 gram silver net (weight 13,88 gram). My local coin dealer told me a lot of the 5 Reichsmark coins from 1936-1939 are lost or melted during the time.
I got a coin lot yesterday and I got 7 canadian silver dollars 2 silver canadian half dollars 12 silver canadian quarters 5 .925 5 cent peice 22 silver canadian dimes
Wow, what a collection, can only dream of finding some of those older US coins here in Canada, even the 20cent coin you found in the earlier video I have yet to come across in the wild, such a great find.
I just finished going through what I believe to be a unsearched bag of 500wheat cents it had 1 1931-d, 1 1922-d, 1 1915-s, 1 1913-s, 2 1912-s, 1 1911-s, and 3 nice 1909 vdb in it. All but the vdb are under 10 million minted.
Again always nice to see 5:017:26 Use your gloves! If this is a proof coin (details are needed), fingerprints will destroy the surface. That coin (quarter) 1861 looks so good, congratulations. 6:54 When a sticker is added this is called a Appliqué mostly these are medals Simply to make, too high cost (scam) 7:50 "Silver" if the edge is plain/smooth there would be no silver in it, this is historical. That is why lettered, reeded or security edges exist If someone wanted to get rich he cliped coins, that is why silver and gold coins were weighed. And this is illegal, but now there are silver coins in circulation any more, and silver is very low priced. 8:34 "Silver is silver" no way man .. if coins are below 500/1000 silver, the costs are to high to get it out. The price is always which purity it is: 999 (pure/fine silver) , 925 (Sterling), 835 (2nd degree), 800 (3rd degree) and lower 750 etc. But there are cuntries with other purities like Russia. Mostly it get melt down and pure willbe added to get the purity higher up, a bar with fine silver will be added. With garbish silver like billon
Nice “reveals”. Thanks for sharing with us. I am glad you are swapping out some that are currently in your collection. Not jealous at all, just glad they found a new home. This was enjoyable, so I would love to see more videos like this.
@@brettvickery633 I''m not being secretive. I said in each of the 3 videos that I pay 75% of the market value (based on when the video was shot). If I say the dollar amount it makes things confusing because it changes. I have people telling me I underpaid someone...because they're watching a video from 4 years ago when silver was like $14/ozt. Really not trying to hide anything lol
I like the 3rd reich coins, not that I'm any sort of a fan of that government, but they do have some history. If you got any coins from the USSR or Maoist China would you sell them because were not that favorable either?
I have watched several of your video’s as a coin collector myself, I’m curious as to what you pay for each collection prior to you opening it up on your video’s and tallying it while doing the video. Just curious as I have got to the point where I would like to start buying collection, but don’t want to be taking advantage of since I haven’t ventured down that avenue.
Because of the quality of those coins, I would look those modern ones over closely. There may be something there, like an error. Or he may have looked through rolls to find a high grade. I'm just saying.
Hey silver picker. I’ve been collecting coins and precious metals since 2020. I feel like I’ve been over paying for some of my silver. Could you make video one day on how we could get silver for close to spot. Also how would you price the things you sell?
I usually price what I sell a bit under the market value. I have several videos about how I get silver coins for under spot but it takes time and effort. If you're just looking for a good deal to grow your stack, check out my top choices here: www.sdbullion.com/silverpicker
Its a history we cant forget, but by associating the coins like the Nazi ones with ONLY Neo-nazis, instead of the other many numerous numismatists who also collect them as a token of war history as well as remembering a dark past that we are all well aware of, honestly focuses on only the negative by throwing it to the side. I understand your standpoint, but its odd considering many people collect war history (including myself and many others).
I agree, but the difference between Nazi historical items and other historical items is that the symbols on them (i.e. the swastika) still are used today as symbols of hate and violence. Literally today a white supremacist murdered 3 black people in Florida and had a swastika painted on his rifle.
Love the foreign junk! I can always get that stuff at spot. Although, for the Taler, that was way too much. I doubt most people would pay more than spot. Also, the Münze Österreich still mints them.
I was bowled over with the US rarities that you pulled out early in the video. I hope to be able to own some coins like that someday. I also liked and am collecting the Canadian half dollars. Beautiful!!! 🤗
@silver picker i understand the hate in this world i just don’t understand why someone could hate another human being but i collect coins based on history. history is history you can’t change it you can only learn from it. if you think about melting them down or anything of the sort i’ll be more the happy to take the off your hands. spread love not hate new saying for 2021
Virtue signaling and ignoring a part of history doesn't fly with me. 3. Reich coins is a miniscule, quite boring part of Germany's mintage history. There's no shame in having them, since a few hundred bucks can lead to a whole type set from every year and mintmark. Coins from the Kaiserreich (1871-1918) are a complete different story though. A lifetime's probably not enough to complete the task, even with 'unlimited' cash. To keep the story short: Don't blame the coins for their existance
Very cool coins, those Seated Liberties are amazing. Was hoping to see some more Misc foreign silver, but love the Canadian halves. Don't know if you watch other videos on youtube or interested in foreign silver, but I just posted early this weak, a video on my foreign silver coin show haul
I feel like this collector is from the US and got all the foreigns from travelling and they were just thrown into a box after being taken from multiple albums
26:43 Please do not forget a lot of german civilians who suffered at the end of war and (shortly) after it used the 2 Reichsmark and 5 Reichsmark coins just to survive. It's history.
Silver picker You need to send the quarter to get graded and authenticed and on the other quarters people will pay more for uncirulated coins for their album's there is also a lot of errors and variations on them and now we have the west point quarters in witch they are only making 2 million off each year and I have personally sold 3 for $10 to $15 each I know a lot of people just toss the regular stuff to the side and or crack it out and spend it but don't do it as much as you may hate the none silver stuff remember the younger collectors and where you first started because most of us collected the state quarters and some still do
Hey man so about a year ago when I seriously got into coin collecting I bought a 1934 s peace dollar in xf+ condition and a 1894 o Morgan dollar in xf condition from my local coin shop because they were relatively more expensive in price than normal peace and Morgan dollars and I recently went through my collection and realized they aren’t very common not that I’m particularly interested in selling them anytime soon but I was wondering how much they would be worth to someone and if I should hold on to them for a while
$250 value on the quarter is laughable if it has not been cleaned. It would be thousands of dollars for the 1861 quarter so i hope he did not rip the person off with a mere $250.
Are Reichsmarks really worth so much in America? Here, they cost 11-13 each in good condition and 20-25 in almost uncirculated condition. Uncirculated ones can, of course, be a bit more expensive.

@@Silverpicker he's not asking to buy them lol
I know I'm about 3 months early but happy 10 year anniversary of your channel
Im from Germany and those 5 Marks are selling for around 15$ here ;)
Are the premiums so high in the States?
I dont understand the thought process of assuming all potential buyers have some sort of reverence for nazi Germany. I mean ok you dont want it in your collection. But to outright not sell to anybody, such an important reminder of a terrible regime, is strange to me. I'm uncomfortable with them too, but history buffs or foreign collectors that want it in their collection to complete a set, could want it purely for numismatic reasons.
@@lightningphil100 yeah i was thinking the same. It's an awful part of history that will hopefully never repeat and that coin is a piece of that history but i think it's fine to add to someone's collection.
@@lightningphil100 Yeah, for me it’s just a coin, which represented a dark age in history and which is a reminder that this time should never happen again.
Idk why someone shouldn’t have it in his or heir collection, even without political thoughts. I know that Silverpicker is Jewish, maybe from this direction he doesn’t want to sell it or have it around.
No offense against him, love his channel and following almost three years :)
I love the channel and silverpicker too. Not trying to sway his point of view but just commenting on my point of view. I am not Jewish nor do I condone nazi Germany so I cannot feel what Silverpicker and so many others still feel even decades later. And only a couple generations removed.
I may not have explained it well enough in my video. It's not that I don't want to sell it at all. It's that I don't want to sell it to someone I don't know. Also, I don't know if I agree that it's possible that someone "could want it purely for numismatic reasons." I think history and context are inextricably linked to numismatics. In any case, I don't take offense :) I'm glad you liked the video and took the time to share your thoughts
Touching a „Maybe“ Proof coin with bare hands 🤯🤯🤯
I totally agree I can't understand why he would do that
First coin/1861,sitting liberty coin...very rare...and in that condition.UNCIRCULATED.Very valuable.
25:00 Last week i bought one from 1938 in a similar condition. Paid 20 swiss francs for it. It's 0900 silver and almost 12,5 gram silver net (weight 13,88 gram). My local coin dealer told me a lot of the 5 Reichsmark coins from 1936-1939 are lost or melted during the time.
You can check the 2015 homestead quarters at 9:59 for the leaky bucket and snow on roof errors. That may be why they were in there.
LoL I love the seated quarter…nice !!
Where do you purchase all these coins very interested in purchasing coins like this
I got a coin lot yesterday and I got 7 canadian silver dollars 2 silver canadian half dollars 12 silver canadian quarters 5 .925 5 cent peice 22 silver canadian dimes
Wow, what a collection, can only dream of finding some of those older US coins here in Canada, even the 20cent coin you found in the earlier video I have yet to come across in the wild, such a great find.
Thanks for watching!
Man I just brought a person’s father’s collection and just found two half sovereigns holy I just searched them up and they are gold 1914 and 1915
I just finished going through what I believe to be a unsearched bag of 500wheat cents it had 1 1931-d, 1 1922-d, 1 1915-s, 1 1913-s, 2 1912-s, 1 1911-s, and 3 nice 1909 vdb in it. All but the vdb are under 10 million minted.
Nice- where did you get it
@@colejosephalexanderkashay683 a local coin shop- liberty coin
Edited for grammar
Finally!!! Been waiting for this
Glad you enjoyed, Jacob!
Again always nice to see
5:01 7:26 Use your gloves!
If this is a proof coin (details are needed), fingerprints will destroy the surface.
That coin (quarter) 1861 looks so good, congratulations.
6:54 When a sticker is added this is called a Appliqué mostly these are medals
Simply to make, too high cost (scam)
7:50 "Silver" if the edge is plain/smooth there would be no silver in it, this is historical.
That is why lettered, reeded or security edges exist
If someone wanted to get rich he cliped coins, that is why silver and gold coins were weighed.
And this is illegal, but now there are silver coins in circulation any more, and silver is very low priced.
8:34 "Silver is silver" no way man .. if coins are below 500/1000 silver, the costs are to high to get it out.
The price is always which purity it is: 999 (pure/fine silver) ,
925 (Sterling), 835 (2nd degree), 800 (3rd degree) and lower 750 etc.
But there are cuntries with other purities like Russia.
Mostly it get melt down and pure willbe added to get the purity higher up, a bar with fine silver will be added.
With garbish silver like billon
Fantastic collection mate
I have a 1939 2Mark, what is the percentage of silver in them? Hope that’s not a silly question
I believe they're 62.5% silver
the commemorative 500 Lira coin originally came with the 200 Lira coin, they are both silver and thats the first issue
Beautiful coins. Especially, the Seated Liberties and Liberty Bust.
Yes they are! Incredible, right!?
Can't wait for you to post new videos. Best coin channel on UA-cam!
Thanks Brian! Every Thursday :)
Love seated coins !
Looks like liberty will have a serious crick in her neck looking backwards all the time.
Amazing videos thumbs up 👍
I have a question I have a stack from the bank red sealed 2 dollar bills how much is that worth?
amazing coin collection
Nice “reveals”. Thanks for sharing with us. I am glad you are swapping out some that are currently in your collection. Not jealous at all, just glad they found a new home. This was enjoyable, so I would love to see more videos like this.
Numbers on the flips could be auction lot numbers?
Very good call, Bobby!
Did you examine those Homestead quarters to see if they were the doubled die varieties?
I remember you saying that you would tell us what you paid for the collection
I pay 75% of the market value
@@Silverpicker This changes each day, and to sell silver or gold is like speculation (gambling) it takes time.
@@Silverpicker why so secretive on what you paid for the collection when you said you would tell us /not cool
@@brettvickery633 I''m not being secretive. I said in each of the 3 videos that I pay 75% of the market value (based on when the video was shot). If I say the dollar amount it makes things confusing because it changes. I have people telling me I underpaid someone...because they're watching a video from 4 years ago when silver was like $14/ozt. Really not trying to hide anything lol
Amazing Collection
How do I go about requesting to purchase some of these coins?
That seated liberty is amazing. I need one for my collection
good video. I want to know where I can buy collections like this :)
I like the 3rd reich coins, not that I'm any sort of a fan of that government, but they do have some history. If you got any coins from the USSR or Maoist China would you sell them because were not that favorable either?
I have watched several of your video’s as a coin collector myself, I’m curious as to what you pay for each collection prior to you opening it up on your video’s and tallying it while doing the video. Just curious as I have got to the point where I would like to start buying collection, but don’t want to be taking advantage of since I haven’t ventured down that avenue.
I typically pay 70-80% of the market value of the coins
How much is a uncirculated steel wheat cent worth?
Seated half. I love the seated halves and dollars.
Because of the quality of those coins, I would look those modern ones over closely. There may be something there, like an error. Or he may have looked through rolls to find a high grade. I'm just saying.
What will you do at 100K subs? I almost fainted at the FIRST COIN! Holy $hit!
That alone could’ve been a 100k sub event. Wow.
You're right lol. I gotta come up with something fun for 100k
Hey silver picker. I’ve been collecting coins and precious metals since 2020. I feel like I’ve been over paying for some of my silver. Could you make video one day on how we could get silver for close to spot. Also how would you price the things you sell?
I usually price what I sell a bit under the market value. I have several videos about how I get silver coins for under spot but it takes time and effort. If you're just looking for a good deal to grow your stack, check out my top choices here: www.sdbullion.com/silverpicker
Its a history we cant forget, but by associating the coins like the Nazi ones with ONLY Neo-nazis, instead of the other many numerous numismatists who also collect them as a token of war history as well as remembering a dark past that we are all well aware of, honestly focuses on only the negative by throwing it to the side. I understand your standpoint, but its odd considering many people collect war history (including myself and many others).
I agree, but the difference between Nazi historical items and other historical items is that the symbols on them (i.e. the swastika) still are used today as symbols of hate and violence. Literally today a white supremacist murdered 3 black people in Florida and had a swastika painted on his rifle.
I have never seen a more beautiful seated Quarter! It's Insane!!!
Right?!!
I found 3 of these 1937 5- mark pcs at a fleamarket in the 90’s. Glad i bought ‘em…not cheap…
Love the foreign junk! I can always get that stuff at spot. Although, for the Taler, that was way too much. I doubt most people would pay more than spot. Also, the Münze Österreich still mints them.
People pay a premium on eBay
Why is the Bu 2015 Cent worth more then 1 cent, when the rest of the modern BU coins are worth face value? Is it the DDR or DDO?
If the seated coins are genuine you are definitely light on the pricing.
I was bowled over with the US rarities that you pulled out early in the video. I hope to be able to own some coins like that someday. I also liked and am collecting the Canadian half dollars. Beautiful!!! 🤗
My interest in early American coinage has been renewed…
Those printed numbers on the 2x2 flips might represent Lot Numbers from an auction.
What’s your cord
Awesome coin's thanks for sharing
My pleasure Tim!
Good video
what a show,,,amazing coins...can i buy one of those morgan dollars from you????
The homestead quarter has a reverse error
I'm guessing those are catalogue numbers
Why is the 2015 penny worth $1? At 27:00
That was a mistake in editing lol. Should be 1 cent
@@Silverpicker lol
@silver picker i understand the hate in this world i just don’t understand why someone could hate another human being but i collect coins based on history. history is history you can’t change it you can only learn from it. if you think about melting them down or anything of the sort i’ll be more the happy to take the off your hands. spread love not hate new saying for 2021
Almost to the silver play button the dream for the silver picker! :)
Great video as always!
So close!
Silverpicker I got that notification from you upload it it said
Uploaded:
It said you had no name no profile pic is that a problem?
That's weird. I suspect it was just a glitch
Virtue signaling and ignoring a part of history doesn't fly with me. 3. Reich coins is a miniscule, quite boring part of Germany's mintage history. There's no shame in having them, since a few hundred bucks can lead to a whole type set from every year and mintmark. Coins from the Kaiserreich (1871-1918) are a complete different story though. A lifetime's probably not enough to complete the task, even with 'unlimited' cash. To keep the story short: Don't blame the coins for their existance
Very cool coins, those Seated Liberties are amazing. Was hoping to see some more Misc foreign silver, but love the Canadian halves. Don't know if you watch other videos on youtube or interested in foreign silver, but I just posted early this weak, a video on my foreign silver coin show haul
I feel like this collector is from the US and got all the foreigns from travelling and they were just thrown into a box after being taken from multiple albums
26:43 Please do not forget a lot of german civilians who suffered at the end of war and (shortly) after it used the 2 Reichsmark and 5 Reichsmark coins just to survive. It's history.
Did the person that you bought this from live in Michigan?
No why?
So close to 100k really awesome keep up the good work
Thanks! I can't wait!
Silver picker
You need to send the quarter to get graded and authenticed and on the other quarters people will pay more for uncirulated coins for their album's there is also a lot of errors and variations on them and now we have the west point quarters in witch they are only making 2 million off each year and I have personally sold 3 for $10 to $15 each
I know a lot of people just toss the regular stuff to the side and or crack it out and spend it but don't do it as much as you may hate the none silver stuff remember the younger collectors and where you first started because most of us collected the state quarters and some still do
I will almost definitely get those coins graded!
BRO ARE YOU TOUCHING THAT WITHOUT GLOVES BROOOOOOOOOO :€
By the edge
Youre allowed to think something like that coin is cool without supporting the idealogy behind it...
I think I’m more comfortable with finding it interesting than cool
Nice looking Thaler
Hey man so about a year ago when I seriously got into coin collecting I bought a 1934 s peace dollar in xf+ condition and a 1894 o Morgan dollar in xf condition from my local coin shop because they were relatively more expensive in price than normal peace and Morgan dollars and I recently went through my collection and realized they aren’t very common not that I’m particularly interested in selling them anytime soon but I was wondering how much they would be worth to someone and if I should hold on to them for a while
$250 value on the quarter is laughable if it has not been cleaned.
It would be thousands of dollars for the 1861 quarter so i hope he did not rip the person off with a mere $250.
I know they arent worth much but i really want a Canadian half dollar now lol one that contains silver that is, i think they are really cool looking.
I think they’re great too!
Any ihp with full liberty is automatically worth much more than $1. Cheapooo
While watching some of your videos, I'm jealous.
The commemorative Canadian half-dollar is actually a Canadian commemorative DOLLAR.
Thanks Raphael!
Unbelievable Collection that's me a subscriber just started coin Hunting in Scotland. keep up the good work almost 100k 👍
Thanks so much! I'm so close!
Are Reichsmarks really worth so much in America? Here, they cost 11-13 each in good condition and 20-25 in almost uncirculated condition. Uncirculated ones can, of course, be a bit more expensive.
Yes, you'd be surprised the difference in value
