Unboxing a LONG LOST COIN COLLECTION - Expensive Coins Coming Out of Nowhere
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 тра 2021
- Here's a pretty unexpectedly incredible collection that a close contact of mine asked me to evaluate - and there were some great coins that the owner had no idea were in there. It wasn't just confined to one coin, either - there were a lot of coins that were worth hundreds of dollars more than their bullion value, not to mention the sheer amount of reasonably pricy coins. It always pays to have someone knowledgeable look at your coins - and this is a fun collection that shows just that.

8:57 'S' is for Sydney Australia. There were no gold sovereigns struck in the USA.
Nice video. As a coin collector since 30 years I have also often checked some family collections like this. Also in Europe the average houshold has the same junk silver, worthless foreign small change and sometimes luckily some gold coins. You presented it very well. In Europe all this silver is put to melting companies. It´s sad, because there are often nicer coins than usual.
Thank you!
The 1925 Sovereign appears to have a P mintmark right above the date, meaning it was minted in Perth, Western Australia. Certainly carries a premium over the British 1925s which are basically all restrikes. Also the S mintmark on the 1887 Sovereign is for Sydney, a little further afield than San Francisco :P
Thank you! Didn't realize that.
Yeah, young head-Sydney/St George for the 1887 s
$600?
@@TreasureTownCoins the US mint usually mints foreign coins in Philadelphia
@@dataexpunged2827 The US Mint has minted some coins for foreign countries in San Francisco as well. I have a Fiji 6 pence coin that was minted there.
Nice! Fun to go through old collections like that. Reminds me of my small inheritance I received from my folks. Similar coins and condition. Thanks for sharing
Awesome! I appreciate it.
Awesome video! I have some Morgan’s and this makes me excited to get some of them graded, hopefully soon!! Thanks for sharing! 😁
Super cool video. I absolutely love the toning on those Morgan’s
“I don’t know if that S stands for San Francisco, that would be quite a turn of events…” Lmaooo
I'll be honest, I wish the premiere date was set a little closer. I like these videos but it's a small pet peeve of mine.
Thank you! I will improve on that going forward.
@@TreasureTownCoins You're welcome. I'm so excited for this!
Wow,Awesome coin collection! Thanks for sharing. 😊👍 New subscriber here!
Enjoyed making this - some cool coins!
Jiske pass purana Sikka hai vah humse sampark Karen call me
Wow! Amazing collection!!!
Thank you so much 😀
Wow, that's a very beautiful Morgan dollar. I like this very much.
Great video. I'd love to get my hands on that collection.
Thanks!
IF YOU'RE APPRAISING SOMEBODY ELSES COLLECTION, SHOULDN'T YOU BE WEARING WHITE COTTON GLOVES WHILE EXAMINING THEM?
*This kind of videos are just Paradise for my eyes and ears mate. Gorgeous collection. Lucky whoever has all of them. :)*
Many thanks!
Wow what a beautiful collection. Wish I had that many silver dollars!
Thanks for watching!
Wonderful video ... lots of interesting coins.
Glad you enjoyed!
so cool, good finds.
Fun Finds there 👌
Really nice, versatile collection.
Thank you - was good to unbox for sure and quite interesting to see.
This way such a great collection! Those Morgan's stood the test of time. Was the pouch leather? The gold was beautiful of course. Even the constitutional was in great condition. And best part, you can almost be sure non of the coins were cleaned. For a "smaller" collection, it was a very smart collection imo. You did a great job. You're definitely the person to go to with a collection.
Thank you, very enjoyable video 🌟
Thank you! And I believe so. And some good news on the Morgans!
Hi
Big like 1.6K!! Beautiful old coins, wow!
I HAD A MINT HALF ROLL OF 1943D STEEL CENT, THAT I OPENED (WITH GLOVES) IT LOOKS LIKE ABOUT 6 OF THEM ARE ERRORS LIKE DDO, 3 WITH DIE CRACKS, DO YOU THINK IT WOULD BE WORTH GETTING GRADED BY NGC? I COULD SEND YOU SOME PICTURES.
MAYBE YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN BUYING ALL 25.
THANKS, EMILE FROM CT.
Some great coins! Score 😎
Thanks 👍
Wow some nice hoard of coins.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Like number 800! Nice collection man👍
Beautiful collection. I love coins and currency so much. I used to have a little decent collection and I left it all in a storage unit in Florida along with sooo soo much more items worth a decent amount of money.quit paying my storage unit once I moved back up to Alaska and to this day I kinda regret not getting all my stuff out of that storage unit. Biggest L I took in my 21 years of life.
I started my collection over again
What a nice treasure
I dont fully collect couns but I appreciate history so I just spend a couple bucks here and there on coins. I never spent more than 25 bucks on a single coin and it was a 1866 3cent which was in incredibly good shape. You could very clearly make out every letter and leaf on the coin.

Hi Christian you showed a Mercury dime and. You mentioned the year was a1916.. hope it's a d mintmark 😊.. with a mintage of 264,000.only🤞
Love your videos, Christian. Lucky to find a couple of 1884-S! Your Roman coin is not an antoninianus. It's a very common 4th century bronze, showing Jupiter holding Nike, the goddess of victory. In the condition it is in, it has virtually no value, I'm afraid. But your other great finds more than make up for that!
Looks like Licinus I from Siscia...
Thank you so much for letting me know - and certainly great to see these 1884S popping up. Would love to grade em - and cool to know the history behind the Roman.
This Is really cool
Great video.
Thanks Geraldo!
gr8 video. luckily I've a few Morgan dollars.
Hello,iam from asia-indonesia...i have coin too from my father..
Nice too see your chanell
GOD BLESS
Good video very interesting.
Thanks Rick!
The Singapore 1 dollar note was from the 1980s can sell for roughly US$6
I like to add unique items even if not valuable to my coin collection. I have a ticket to a political convention with date and seat number. Only one in the world. I have a Bulgarian war medal, with paper work about the recipient, that must be a one-off in the United States. It is very old. The collection in the video is similar to thousands of others, nice but common. Silver is always fun to look for. I recently found a Japanese 50 Sen coin from the Meiji period, 80% silver, beautiful and only 50 cents at a yard sale. Value? Over $20!
Hey guys! I am a new collector, and I am wondering what the worth is of a 1930 and 1936 American nickel!
Hello, I hope you're well
I have a lot of very oldest coins, and one coin which is Fourteen Hundred and Fifty years old.
something amazing might be inside!!!!
Thank you!
Great video. I’d have liked to hear your appraisal figure.
The British coins you showed in the Tennis box are not circulating. They have been reduced in size since then 👌
Bills are all about condition... bought a collection few months ago and really old fractional currency which cool but worthless because it was not stored properly
Lovely coins ❤❤❤❤❤🤝
Thank you 👍
@@TreasureTownCoins welcome friend 🙏🙏🤝🤝
1884 s toned is awsome
6:19 P-DUBBS, BAYYBAYYYYY
!!!
Sidney mint on the 1887 Sovereign
Sherwood, my knowing who to talk to whenever I would like to move a few of my rarities, but for some reason another nobody wants to get on board God bless
Wow a lot of Morgan dollars
I'm 2-years late, but a really cool video!! One question, do you charge to do appraisals?
No, but I haven't had much time to do any recently!
cannot wait
Was fun!!
Gold sovereigns are 1/4 ozt
@Malcolm James dude like they 1/11oz lol idiot
@@mrs3378 dude... It takes 3 seconds to go check the weight and purity of australian gold sovereings. The gold content is at 0.2354 troy ounce.... Why are you commenting bullcrap all over this comment section?
1884 cc has straight arrow feather, I think.
If those coins were mine I would have several graded by NGC or PCGS . Especially those toned Morgan dollars and those two 1884S Morgan dollars.
I believe he was only appraising the collection? I'm sure he told the owner his knowledge and opinions, but it's the owners decision. Notice the saflaps with Morgan's. That's what you use to send coins to be graded, so I think they're on it 👍🤗 just guessing though. But my ocd kicked in hard when I saw Christian put the Morgan's in opposite of the way I put coins in....might have to change all the coins I have in them 🤷🏼♀️
I use ANACS to grade in bulk. You can often get a special rate if you check their website.
Thanks for the tip!
Nice finds in the box.
Nice camera..what camera you used?
Me and my family got hired to clean out a house after a lady had passed away. Their children said they absolutely hated her for how they were raised and wanted nothing to do with anything of hers. So as we started gutting the place, we stumbled upon a book shelf with nothing but old and I mean old books of which we had no clue were collectibles and valuable, so we threw them straight into the trash which to this day I regret. But then we kept cleaning the book shelf and some of the books were old dansco albums and two big velvet crown royal bags FULL with Morgan dollars a total of 387 to be exact. And like a young and dumb ass hole, I got into drugs as a teen and basically sold every Morgan to a local coin shop. I was paid on average 30 dollars some 90 others 180 but I was paid 1200 and 2500 for 2 coins which I regret having sold all together. Moral of the story, you live and learn and eventually I'll repay my parents for the biggest mistake I've made in my life.
Aw man.
I'm sure most watching this already know. But if you're gonna save paper bills. Dont fold them lol.
Was the 1922 peace dollar in the pouch a high relief?
You need to check the 64D for the type C buddy
Good point.
9:16 That coin is Constantine I (the great),the roman emperor who converted the christianity in 313 AD
I wonder what kind of pouch that is that the silver dollars were in because I watched his other video with the same kind of pouch, I'd like to get one
While it might be otherwise it looks to me like a leather cigarette case. Often they have smaller secondary pouches inside or outside for a lighter or book of matches.
Check Tobacciana collectables.
@@babsbylow6869 thank you
British new 10 pence does not circulate anymore the new one is much smaller
So a nickle 5 cents 64 still silver????
Should have put gold coins in holders.
Good video
Glad you enjoyed, Bryan!
Omg wish it was my collection
Same here
Seriously that would be the greatest
That sovereign is about a $900 coin or more graded its in really good condition
Thanks!
The 10p and 50p don't circulate... they were downsized in the 1990's.
Forgot how big the old 10 pence was😂
I'm hoping the grand kids (none yet) will have fun when they get my box of gold and silver.
Very cool!
How can I distinguish between Type I coins and Type II.?
Morning sir
I think I still owe littleton money from when I was a kid.
Three is a prime number. I'm not buying "multiple gold coins."
who are interested in seeing a complete collection of coins from the Brazilian Olympics. because I need to pay a debt equivalent to 3000 dollars
I gave you a like just because I like coins but I was slightly disappointed I would have preferred to been shown in debt in that video the Morgan's over the others
I have an 1890 cc, but it’s very worn😭
My oldest coin is a 1886
S Sydney Mint gold coin
Equilateral curved heptagon
UK 50P
Sad the bills are all folded...
Large 10ps don't circulate
Spare me some silver dollars LOL 😆
Full bands on the mercury dime you faild to mention that and sure you going to only pay spot for it
He is not buying it tought.... That was just a rapid estimation on the top off his head. He says at the start of the video one of his friends wants an estimate....
I did not buy - was just estimating for a friend!
He said he was helping a friend. And I don't think Christian would be unfair with anyone, or not share his knowledge. Look what he shares with us here, for free. I would trust him to estimate any collection. This was a quick look over, he mentioned needing to check some things. Going through things quickly on camera can't be easy. He does it more for us, I think. I was just happy he let us watch him go through it.
What is the value of the Lincoln penny 1963D
If it's in high MS condition, is a variety, or has an error, it's worth something. If not, it's a spender.
I have an interesting coin collection how to i get in touch with you
15:00
I have some valuable old coins..I want to sell the old coins that I have....can you help me find a buyer for those coins..
Some of the no cash value tokens could be for a car wash
Thanks for the idea!
55 dimes are very low mint
worth like 200 bucks
Don’t you have any gloves Christian? 😊👍🏼 Lots of Love Bobbi 😊🙏🏼
I generally avoid gloves on non-dirty coins actually! The graders at NGC/PCGS don't use gloves - it's easy to drop the coins. Make sure to wash your hands before handling, though.
@@TreasureTownCoins but not before you eat LoL
You have nice hands. Just saying.
Someone who has a channel devoted to coins should know that sovereigns were never minted in the USA lol. The s is for Sidney 🤦
1928
You TT are a truly honest man to a degree,I mean to literally grade a collection of Treasure I'm serious without any kind of payment is just ludicrous.There is probably close to 10K that you searched thru and didn't get one cent of pay for your help is just ridiculous.Honestly the people who own that should have their butts kicked for being so selfish for flaunting a small fortune in front of you and just turn around and probably sell it and make enough to buy a brand new car.I can say I would fully expect some kind of gift for making them richer.But thats just me I guess.
It's the ethical thing to do.
1have 1977 Lincoln cent error in my video
Try to see my homepage harvest coins collection
Shouldn't you be wearing Gloves?
Nope! No need if you handle the coins properly - grading companies don't use gloves, for example. Make sure your hands are clean before handling however.
@@TreasureTownCoins your a UA-camr your not a professional. Put some gloves on kid
Only amateurs and noobs wear gloves. He may not be a professional but he’s correct
Gloves are not needed if you have clean, not perspiring hands, in a none humid atmosphere.
