I get world coins for free out of the coin return slot of the CoinStar machines at my grocery store. Just stick your hand in there each time you go grocery shopping. About once a year I come up with a silver US (junk silver) dime! :)
What you said around the 2:30 mark is precisely why I feel the 1913 Barber dime and 1902 Liberty V-nickel that my father gave me at age 10 are the most valuable coins I own. Monetarily not at all, $5 is overpaying for the pair, but still.
As a kid I didn't have a very big coin collection. I had a huge stamp collection (geek alert 🤣). However I learned so much about the world and other countries. Last year I gave it all to a young couple I know with little kids, hoping they will pass it down or find some treasures they can find to pay bills.
Hey there ! I am a 13 yo numismatist and I'd say it means much to means even if I own coins from 28+ countries. In India, you can get a 50 World coin grab bag for $6.50. Big Fan Love from India ❤
I slightly disagree, im 25 years old and I love buying foreign coin lots, not for the value but for the history factor. My best purchase from ebay, ive received a 1884 ½ penny from the Netherlands. For someone who's on a budget like myself, buying these types of lots are fun and educative... again its not for the value its for fun. Ps I wish you would have opened both to see the variety from the 2 lots.
I can’t imagine that any coin purchase off Amazon is worth it but let’s see

Yep, I've had that experience too!

Another great video by Silverpicker!😀
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like Thailands coins. The coin showed from Thailand is from the Bhumibol days when king Bhumibol Adulyadej was king of Thailand
Great video! One thing is that the Latvian coin from the first bag is actually a Lithuanian coin. Keep up the great videos.
How can I get a scale like that one and how much is it.

Before I finally found my true numismatic love it was coins like these which satisfied and excited me. I still have a lot of them.
Many of them are very beautiful, but for me (and many) it's hard to enjoy collecting something that is too easy to get and has no financial value.
I use survey sites and apps that pay in the form of Amazon gift card credits, which makes the coins basically free as long as their foreign coins
Only buy coins from the Amazon seller uncle theo
Where can u buy world coins in bulk for a good ir decent price? I live in europe
Coin shop. They often have a bin.
@@freesk8 and if theres no coin shops around me? Is there any online?

That's so awesome! So glad you enjoy my vids :)
Thank you so I didn’t have too 👊
The 2 centai coin is acualy from Lithuania not Latvia. Latvians had santimi.
"Ptas" is the abreviation for Pesetas but no one ever calls it "P'tas". LOL
Hahah somehow I missed that

Agreeable
I totally agree that there's much to enjoy in a lot like this, but $13 for a 1/4 pound is a terrible deal. You should be getting 4x this much for $13
@Silverpicker ok that does make sense
🫵😃👍 great video
It’s 100 Millimes coin from Tunisia, I have That Coin… Max (5:45)
Thank you!!
I buy a pound for $20
