Thank you for teaching me how to know what to look for before sending a coin off to be graded.

Just bought a 1908 from my 85 year old neighbor lady this evening. Wondering if I got a good deal. After seeing this, I think I did well on price. Thanks for the video.

I know nothing about coins and recently inherited a coin collection, in that collection there was a bag with a bunch of mercury dimes and I had one of these coins in with those.. I didn't even know a $2 1/2 dollar coin existed..

As of this time gold is on the rise it's $ 2.050'00, I have a beautiful 1911-p quarter eagle,pcgs ms63 these coin are scarce,not many are in circulation because of the President ordered everybody to turn in their gold coins for cash and then we had the great depression, pre33 gold is where the money's at and especially in a nice grade you will get top dollar for your coin, nice video thank you

I do not agree that "Luster"being present is mandatory for a coin to be considered mint state. If there's any doubt just look at many old slabbed coins when "Blazing White" wasn't the determining factor. I have seen countless toned coins graded ms where luster isn't present.

@TheCoinGeek 5 жыл бұрын

When I use the term luster I mean the natural flow of metal that is created when a coin is struck. If a coin is a proof it may not have any luster and still be mint state. Most coins will show luster down to XF grades.

The one video I needed that I wasn’t looking for, but perfect place to ask I hope 🤞🏻 I have a 1908 flawless $5 Indian that’s ungraded. My problem is when I looked at the price guide the price went up something like $40,000 from a grade MS -MS65-MS68. My question is how can I trust to ship it to get graded without having it switched or something bad happening like theft? Please excuse me if this is a dumb concern.

@TheCoinGeek 5 жыл бұрын

It' a question that gets asked often. If the third party grading companies switched coins on people then they would be out of business overnight. They grade million dollar coins. If it makes you feel better you can get really good pictures of it before you send it in. Look for specific marks or toning that make it unique. Also -just a word of caution...don't get your hopes up. We often overgrade our own coins.

@jameskerry3826 3 жыл бұрын

The luster here is obviously (very different) from the UNC luster we want to see on the Morgan Dollars. The latter being the "cartwheel" luster. So could you please comment on how we are to watch for the luster on these old Au pieces? And further...if there is also a luster difference (to watch for) w/the old Au pieces that have the INCUSE design, vs. those that do not? Thank you.

Hello! Would you rather have a 2 and half Indian or three 1/20th gold coins? Yes! Good information😊

@TheCoinGeek 5 жыл бұрын

That probably depends on what the 2 1/2 Indian is (date condition) - If it were a cleaned coin then I'd take the .15 ounce! If the 2.50 were a blazing unc, I'd take it :)

@TheCoinGeek 5 жыл бұрын

For some reason the incuse gold pieces have more counterfeits than the earlier ones. Perhaps this is because counterfeiters got better at their craft over time!

Not to question your expert opinion but that first Indian is no better than an xf 40. I have been a dealer for years and they always come back a grade lower than what we think, Keep up the vid's.

Don't clean your coins no matter if you just want them to look shiny you are decreasing their value significantly by putting even water on them the ngc/pcgs coin slab will read DETAILS so don't do it ever!
