Silverpicker l don't see the name of the book you said to buy on $$$ of coins.
1943 steel cents were made to conserve copper for guns and ammo during WW2.
@Adrian Matras just forgot the word for lol sorry
Don’t forget tanks!
In my experience ppl who say, "I swear to god" are straight up lying.
As ell thise who proclaim how honest they are or those who constantly say, "i swear on everything i love". Those people are completely full of it!
@Thomas Rivera what?
It's all good and it will stay the same
Ugh I have like 20,000 wheat pennies and only ever looked for the 1943 coppers never knew about all these other dates back then lol.
The '43 coppers and '44 "steelies" are both rarer than hen's teeth but do exist. Most likely in some wealthy person's collection. Did you know the "surplus" '43 steelies planchets were turned into 1944 Belgium 2 Franc coins?
T.B. Willoughby The way to find these all the time is the website Mercari, I got eight real 1944 steels for only 17$
@@dominickwest7558 I think you got scammed because if you got that many 1944 steel pennies for 17 dollars...
My man , 5,000 views in one day ? That’s amazing ! Congratulations and thanks for the content you put out ! You put out seriously awesome videos my guy ! Keep at it and keep stacking ! I am subbed !
Thanks man! Much appreciated. I'm pretty blown away myself! Really hope this vid inspires people to go out there and get it!
He literally just said “tHiS wAs NoT a PlAn!!”
About 4 years ago I went to a couple coin shops and got 5k wheat cents for about $150. I threw in a few Indian heads and a 1909 wheat. I took them to a local auction house and they sold for just over $1,200.
congratulations somebody got scammed
Enjoyed the wheat penny hunt. I'm sorting out a bunch of 1930 wheat cent now. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! Hope you find some good stuff!
I bought a large piggy bank for $10 bucks and it was full of what pennies very early dates when I broke it put them in rolls and forgot about them, I might need to go check them! They looked to be in fabulous shape! Thanks for the info
Julia, that sounds like an awesome find...that you now have the opportunity to rediscover!!
@@Silverpicker indeed thanks for all the info you share!!
Found dime metal detecting in the water, after taking 4 to 5 shovels to the shore, I found it and I looked at it and I knew that it was old for one then I saw dime like at the bottom of it, so I went home and looked at it again an saw a lady sitting on something on the front, flipped it over an it had half written on the top, I didn't even know that they even made a half dime ,flipped it back and it had 1878 on the front pretty shore because it's the oldest coin I've found next to a 1883 o,silver Morgan head dollar both from in the water at a old beach. Ps.nice video, always good luck
SILVER PICKER U ARE AWSOME LOVE YOUR VIDEOS U HAVE HELPED ME SO MANY TIMES IN YOUR VIDEOS.... 🇺🇸
#10:36 Canadian "Flying Dove" Cent is a commemorative coin celebrating the Centennial of Canada's formation of its Federation in 1867. The Canadian Centennial set "shows Canadian wildlife (Cent to Dollar). Silver coins (10 cents - Dollar) are .500 fine).
Second time watching your channel and i m hooked already.Anything i can learn on errors ,wheats and pennies is appreciated as that is my passion.And congrats on thechannel and cool find on 1/2 dime.Thanks
Ladies and Gentlemen, Please be SEATED!!
You never shared more about that half dime like you were saying you would ☺
You are totally right! I think I was so excited that I wasn't paying attention. I will make another video and share the up close details of it later this week. Sorry about that!
@@Silverpicker Np! Thanks so much SP!
Yes, that was going to be my comment too...
He did today.
@@Splendid123456789 ua-cam.com/video/4CISyhsanZ8/v-deo.html
Nice find!
Where are you getting wheats for 0.01 to 0.03?
Sometimes its just good to be lucky! Three years of working at a cash register and I only ever pulled two silver washington quarters. Congrats on the seated!
Agreed! Thanks a lot! Not bad on the 2 washingtons though!
Silverpicker also, what does he mean by seated? plz let me know if I'm asking too many questions
The Seated series is simply Lady Liberty sitting down... vs Standing Liberty, Walking Liberty, etc... she's a busy girl!
@@petsmurf He's referring to the "Liberty Seated", but a lot of non-coin people call Her "Seated Liberty". I have 48 of them, I dug them up in a green glass jar while metal detecting. Most half Dimes have a lot of wear, but mine are VF to AU.That was in 1985, and I've had offers that You couldn't possibly believe. GL and HH.
You've got me buying a few wheat penny rolls 🤣🤞 wish me luck bud.
Good luck!!!
That’s a LOT of wheaties! Not sure I would have the patience to go through and look for key dates and all that. But I like watching you do it!
To me it's fun!
@@Silverpicker Heck yeah, it's fun.....I did well over 3,000 coins last night and 3 coffee cans to get to tonight. HH and GL.
Pretty cool stuff, Silverpicker...informative, short and on point. Just subbed up, thanks. Scotty
The Canadian cent is actually part of a series that you can find a penny a silver dollar a 50 cent coin a a ten cent and a five cent I have the 5 cent and 10 cent
Yep, it's a gorgeous series too!
Buys a CLEAR tube of pennies and never notices obvious gap until he films it. Sure, Ok. That means he never inspected them before purchase. Could have been 2 wheat enders with all zinc's. Not buying it. This guy is the WWE of coin UA-camrs. Rob Finds Treasure is far superior.
Hater alert
Great to see, I do coin runs in the UK for commemorative coins I've sold lots of 50p for 8-10 times more than face value, just starting doing £2 runs and some of these will fetch 2-4 times face value.
You can see the gap in the tube on the Peruvian treasure chest video, it's a legitimate find. Very nice.
WOW Seated dime instant raise of the bar! Sweet wheatie stash!
That is a HALF Dime.
I think USA cents are just great!! Hopefully I can buy some from you in the future!👍😁👍
I took my 1909 wheat penny to a pawn shop. he told me it was worth 10 dollars he gave me five dollars for it. did I get ripped off? It was in great shape
I have like a thousand wheat pennies and maybe 20 Indian head pennies. I don’t even know how to go about looking through them to see if anything is worth anything lol. My oldest in the wheat pennies is 1908 I think
I have $11.00 in wheat cents that I used to help fill my books. But, have not been looked at for errors or Dbl dies (I found out about those much later). Interested?
Nice wheelies. Silver platinum so cheap now. Great show 🙏 thanks
"ThIs IS noT A drIlL!!"
Great find dude! I would've blown my top
Amazing, thanks for sharing! Love your channel!👍
Thanks for the support!!
I have an 1897 or 1898 Indian head wheat penny. Could you tell me the possible value?
Condition is king on this. Post a pic to my Facebook or Instagram
HDo you know if coin shops buy wheat pennies and how much they buy it for if they do
Where do I get those capsules!
amzn.to/35Y8JMS
Silverpicker tysm!!
I like your energy great video I just subscribed will check out all the videos you have
Where do u get your stock?
Hi Silverpicker, do you have any more infos about the half dime? Did you figured out what year is it from? Cheers.
Congratulations!
I have hundreds of wheat scents and also Buffalo head Nichols all the Buffalo head nickels are in plastic tubes that are at least 25 to 35. Years old I would like to say they and I have to go through them.
Great find on the half dime and all the other coins to! Congrats! Happy hunting!
Where can u sell the ones to make fair profit?
eBay, Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, to name a few
youtubers like you are why i still carry my lantern
What does that mean?
@@Silverpicker "In brightest day, In brightest night, Let my ring shine the brightest light, When evil comes, I will join the fight, The power of my lantern shines the brightest light."
My grandfather has the 1955 error penny
im young and my new hobby is coin collecting
My wife works retail and collects wheat pennies but she just throws them in a cup. We have a 64 ounce cup full of wheat pennies. Would it be worth the time to go thru them?
Without a doubt! It would be fun too!
This is why I pick up pennies up here in Canada
The banks still give them out of you ask nicely ;)
So ultimate find last week
2 gold half sovereigns in a penny roll ($400in gold) 😮
I also found 3 rolls of 1943 steel cents
And sold them for $3 a lot - lot of 3 with all 3 mint marks
Did really well 👍
I tell people all the time that if they are consistent about hunting and take it seriously, crazy stuff happens every now and again. Congrats on the finds!
Yeah seated liberty dime 😀😀😀😀👍
Hey i seen that bird cent from Canada was their centennial cent
I seriously need to go thru my coins now lol. I’ve got a few thousand wheat pennies between myself and my dad.
Where can you buy these thoug?
Garage sales, estate sales, private collections, coin stores, OfferUp, etc
Do you guys have modern collectable coins like we have in the UK?
I have a 1909 S VDB
Wow nice buddy !
Thanks!
Hey, can you do a video of how to find garage sales....
By the way, nice find on the seated half dime.
That's a great idea! I will!
@@Silverpicker thx
@@Silverpicker pls do
I got a whole bunch of steel cents for 5 cents a piece. Better yet, some of them were uncirculated!
Yo ya think I can buy one off ya?
nice!
Where can i purchase rolls like that ?
Hell I want to know too
Used to have a vbd and alot of other rare coins when i was a kid but my brother spent them all at school....
Silver picker, where do I buy wheat pennies? I really need to know, I just started coin roll hunting.
Ebay, craigslist, garage sales/ estate sales and your local coin shop might sell bulk lots of wheat pennies
That seated coin was planted by the person you bought those rolls from ( perhaps by mistake)...It,s so obvious its on a clear plastic container.
I really don't think so. He got paid less because of it (though I did send him more money after the fact when I discovered it)
@@Silverpicker do not insult our intelligence please...
All right lucky you I have one of seating lady from the 1800.Glad for you.
The 35s changed to a 25s 14:05
I have a roll of 1911-1919 wheat cents. How much is it worth?
Depends on the condition but you should be able to get like 5-10 cents per coin in bad shape
Ok thanks
are they old Canadian cents and isn't Canadian cents just as valuable and also can you do one on Caribbean money especially money from Jamaica like the money they use before and after Independence and what is the most valuable dollars and coins in the Caribbean particularly Jamaica
I inherited many rolls with one year in the roll. Where do I sell these and what can I get?
You can easily sell those on eBay. What condition are they in and what are the years?
@@Silverpicker I haven't looked at the rolls but they are probably mediocre judging from the stuff I have seen. Mostly 40s and 50s. Won't postage eat up the proceeds?
I’ll buy them.
Very nice
Nice Finds!!!
Thanks!
I 💛 wheat pennies
I dug a 1957 wheatie today.
Nice! Was it in good shape?
@@Silverpicker No, found at a lake side beach toasted and covered in green. I watched a video on how to clean it with baking soda. Had to use a loupe to get the date.
I have a jar full of wheat pennies. I work at a gas station and by any I see. I havent seen really rare ones though. I have several from the teens, some earlier, bunch from 20's and 30's. Also found an Indian Head penny from the 1870's, just cant make out what specific year.
It's always awesome to pull good coins from circulation
1870s IHP's are rare; try to find date
I don’t even need to buy coins my grandma has been collecting for YEARS we have 4-5 huge jars
@Michael H. that's fucked up
I don't know I would be so happy with a 1935S!
I went through my coin bank and the only wheat cent I found was from 1911
I enjoy your videos.
Thank you
You're welcome!
Where does he buy the wheat coins?
Are you buying these off eBay or something like that?
yes, and craigslist, and elsewhere
Newbie, here... why aren't you checking the reverse? Thanks!
The date is on the front, he bought them as wheat cents, so he kinda already knows they are wheats.
@@gerrittaber7331 I'm a newbie, not an idiot. lol
Right, I understand that, but can't there be errors on the reverse, or is he just looking for known dates?
@@tgp-rq2wi Well I get what you are saying, but if it was a double die, he does not have to check the back(unless he picks it up reverse up) then he can tell just by the Liberty on the front, and the date.
@@gerrittaber7331 OK Thank you.
@@tgp-rq2wi No problem man, always will help a fellow coin lover!
cool vid, funny I just bought my 1st roll of wheats to have, I bought from coin shop, so all I got was 40s and 50s
Nice!!!!! I had a '43 penny which looked copper. I did the magnet test, it was steel :(. However, you should do the magnet test on the '43/'44 and see if you have anything special.
Not a bad idea
That’s awesome!
Are there counterfit steel cents?
I doubt it. They're not worth enough
If the distribution center for my state, which is probably the size of the distribution center of a large city can scan 60,000 parcels that's everything from a piece of mail to a small envelope every second. Then why can't we scan pennies that fast?
@ I cant wait for hackers to get around this to hack the switch v2
I bought 2 S,VDB pennie for and is worth $900
Nice! Hope you got a good deal!
If I think I have a valuable coin, who or where do I take it to be sure? Who can I trust?
he got so happy lol
# 5:33 Don't "count" Canadian cents as losers. Canada ceased production of their cents in 2012. Any Canadian cent ("penny") found in US circulation can become worthwhile, as new collectors of Canadian and/or foreign coins will be looking for them to complete their collection(s).
Yes I found 3 dollars in Canadian pennies nothing super old but I am keeping them till the prices get gold
@@@ilovejesuschristmysaviour2819 The Canadian cents with either a "P" or the rcm's "logo" (under the queen)are plated copper steel coins and magnetic,
@@t.b.willoughby6540 yes the gold was a typo I meant till the price gets higher from collectors wanting them
Whete did u get the coins?
@Taylor lol
I have lots of wheat pennies I've been saving them for a long time most of mine are in the 1940
Hold onto them and they may be worth a pretty penny someday ;)
How do u know that these lots weren't gone through before you bought them?
I'd say they weren't with nearly 100% confidence because who would search wheat cent rolls and then leave a seated liberty half dime in there on purpose?
I would assume most wheat cents from eBay have been cherry picked. Ironically, especially the ones that go out of their way to label them as "unsearched". Also, you mention getting them for ~1.5 cents, yet I'm looking at auctions right now selling a single roll anywhere from $2.99 to $9.
It's tough to say, but I'd bet you're right in many cases. I buy mine from private sellers on craigslist and at garage/estate sales
Sum Dood he claims that he buys his rolls from private sellers on craigslist or estate sales garage sales ....they are probably the same people who try to sell them on eBay for more of an explanation see my comment in this thread. This is not against silver picker just trying to save some people cash from my own failures in buying.
@@davidirwin7253 I hunt garage sales (not necessarily for coins) every weekend, and the occasional estate sale. I have honestly never seen anyone selling any kind of collectible coins.
2 years late, but came across this video again by chance. I have only seen one local estate sale with coins, but there is a local private auction house that has decent lots of coins come up about once a month. I still haven't seen rolls of pennies, they were mostly easily recognizable individual us coins.
congrats on the find of the seated. Also boy howdy do people like to claim fake.
I find a few rolls of uncirculated 1958 wheat Penny
John Rambo lucky ducky sucky fucky
@@timidsoul0794 rucky fucky sucky chucky
Nice bro
I went to the bank and i find five roll of uncirculated 2001 Kennedy half dollar and a uncirculated 2013 two dollar bill star note
Nice finds!!
I have been going through rolls for years I just got a box and got over 75 with pennies in it are usually get about 20 tops but he is the weird thing over 50 of them will be the 19 4041 or 42 weirdest thing I’ve ever seen I’m curious if this is ever happened to anybody else at least 60 from just those three years
Makes sense...
Are there those out there that put out fake stuff? Yup. But I don't think yours was fake at all. I have gotten goodies too.
Really appreciate your support William!
Silverpicker I also wanna say that you sounded absolutely straight up when describing how you just found it, you could totally tell you were telling the truth. There's always gonna be doubters and/or haters in the crowd no matter what so just sort of expect it
I have 3 Steel cents. All uncirculated. Actually, i have 4, 2d's, an S, and a D mints.
Nice, Michael! I still need to get an unc steel cent myself!
@@Silverpicker Good luck. Happy hunting.
