      Not as rare as the 1879 D Morgan he picked up after that. Considering the Denver mint didn't open till 1897 and the only Morgan they minted was in 1921. Pretty shocking he didn't know a 1893 in that condition is worth a lot of money.

    Good video. It's unfortunate there are people who are taken in by these companies which sell junk for outrageous prices only because the items are described as 'rare', 'obsolete', 'good investment', and so on. Postal Commemorative Society is one of the worst, selling common stamps for highly inflated money.
    The coin set with the Washington Bicentennial stamp set from 1932 is a little better and can be worth a few bucks. Ask a stamp dealer for the value of that set if they should purchase it. Although retail can be around $25 for the set in VF Never Hinged condition, the set is readily available.

That said, most cops do not steal stuff-certainly not enough to make my baseline assumption that a cop's property is likely stolen. I'd need to see evidence before suggesting that a police officer who retired in good standing is a thief. Suggesting that most cops steal because 5 were busted is not really fair. Even if you multiply that by 100x and say that there are 500 cops who steal from people's homes is 0.07% of cops in the US (there are 708,000).
