Daniel, I love that you’re able to smile and be grumpy at the same time. You have a good sense of humor.

@@CoinHELPu When you try to please everyone, you please no one!

[@CoinHELPu]

@@timrockinberg9771 I am not trying to please everyone. I am trying to help them. It's part of my business model. It's just frustrating when I know the facts and they make it appear I don't

[@timrockinberg9771]

@CoinHELPu I get that. But that is part & parcel of trying to be of assistance. You never will please all. Though you are excellent and try, in the end it will only further serve to frustrate. Its OK to not please everybody. Its an impossible task! But you know that.

[@TheWinstonDouble]

Why are coin dealers grumpy? Because they've spent their life developing knowledge about coins, only to get told they're wrong by someone who just started yesterday. See if that weren't so true, it'd probably make a good joke.

[@darbysdownhomedetecting]

You nailed it....

[@philipraimondo]

I am not a coin dealer and I have offered opinion to friends before and they get upset when I tell them the truth…. It is what it is. Everyone thinks they are going to strike it rich with a single coin.

[@ReginaSuprenant]

Daniel, it is easy to understand your frustration. I was in a local coin shop Monday and the owner, on a daily basis, experiences the same type of "get rich quick without any effort" attitude. There are, however, many very grateful viewers who truly appreciate all that you do. I have learned SO MUCH from you. Thank you for all that you do for the wonderful world of numismatics. Please continue doing what you do so well. We all need you (even the ones that do not know they do).

You are a well respected and trusted coin person. I've heard other you-tubers mention you in their videos as a trusted and reliable source of info

I think non coin collectors don't really comprehend how much of a difference condition makes. That and some people are so stubborn that they have an idea in their head and they don't accept any other answer except the one they want. You dont owe any explanation to these people. You help them the best you can and that's all you can do. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into numismatiques

[@jonathanfish4301]

My coin dealer would tell a customer that they have hundreds of 1942-P circulated Cents that they would sell them for 5 cents each. Maybe, the customer will get the picture that this coin isnt rare and valuable

[@jamesf125]

You help so many of us true collectors with your information and education on coins. I have learned allot from your videos don't think I seen em all but I don't miss the new ones.

[@_CYB0RG_]

In recent years, a large number of people have decided that expertise is no longer necessary. They can skim a couple of articles and suddenly know everything there is to know about a given subject. It’s as if they think the details don’t matter and all they have to do is just decide something is a certain way and that by that one action suddenly makes it their way. It’s like they think everyone with expertise just reaches around and whips it out of their butt and that is where the expertise comes from. They don’t want to accept that expertise comes from real education and real work in a given field. No one just suddenly knows something by osmosis. The way that people gain their expertise in any given field is by putting in the study time along with the hands on experience. It’s by many years of dedication to a given subject

[@WOODWORKVEGAN]

@_cyborg_. I agree 100%.

[@victorxavier9977]

I appreciate all your videos unfortunately some people are beyond help. Stay positive some of us appreciate your time.

[@keithjohnson7795]

Coin dealers aren't the only professionals that deal with "experts" from the general population. I manage a Lumber yard and thanks to the internet and the DIY channel, everyone knows more than me, I have been in this industry for 20 years. If you ask a question to a professional accept the answer.

[@howieduin915]

I'm not a dealer, but a collector for about 60 yrs. Locals know that I have some knowledge about coins and I get exactly the same response as you when I tell them that their 43 copper cent is a 48, and that someone removed the left side of the 8. They rarely ever believe me. Dble headed quarters etc. I appreciate your patience and honesty. There are a few quite unscrupulous dealers that don't help your cause any. One in particular up here in New England comes to mind. They give coin collecting a bad name. It's sad.

[@TaniaLester]

You have NOT Failed!!! Get that thought out of your head, man! You're shared knowledge is bloody amazing! I look at your stuff as a reference more so than anyone else. I have learned so much from from your videos in the last few weeks... I just love them! Unfortunately, some folks just want sunshine & rainbows from ozone and exhaust fumes- & thank God you're not the one that blows that crap at them. Your honesty is appreciated.

Everyone thinks every coin they have is worth thousands of dollars.And when you explain it to them and even show them that they're not, they look at you like you're lying to them,its frustrating.

[@rvnmedic1968]

I've been an eBay member since Feb 1998. Lately I'm seeing crapola coins for sale or auction by rookies/amatures/newbies for insane prices. The first thing I do is look at their ratings and see 100% for most of them and very low sales transactions. They got 100% from their sale of sneakers, a hat, etc. but not coins. It drives me nuts so I can appreciate how frustrated you are as a dealer. Cheers, Bob

Any time I see “🔥🔥🥶🥶” on any eBay post I avoid those accounts like the plague.

Thanks for all of your input Dan. I have learned more from you and your community in a few months than I have in years of trial and error. 🙏

[@tergar1]

Morning Daniel, I just wanted to let you know I only go to your channel. You're honest, you have the knowledge and you give good information. Thank you!

[@GhileMear250]

It sounds like the issue is people can't really see the detail the way you do. As I'm sure you know, people find a coin and want it to be valuable, but in most cases it isn't. What makes things rare and valuable is that you aren't very likely to just find it in change. Possible, but extremely unlikely. Thank you so much for sharing all of the knowledge that you do. Your videos are an amazing resource!

[@CoinHELPu]

No, they don't want to see it, they're convinced it's valuable because the Internet told them.

[@LisaSimplified]

Maybe stop trying so hard to "help" people who already made up their mind about the coin? Say you're not interested in purchasing the coin and wish them good luck with their sale?

[@CoinHELPu]

That isn't an option. I am committed to the truth and spreading that truth. Thanks

[@levy7461]

Not saying anything is saying that there coin is rare and special when it’s not, better to make someone upset and educate them

[@LisaSimplified]

@ I can respect that. I'm not suggesting that you lie. I'm saying answer the questions, and then close the discussion. You will never convince someone who's mind is made up.

[@CoinHELPu]

@ I wasn't implying you said to lie, I am saying my passion is a continued spreading of the truth, despite everything. Also, there's no ending discussions when you have a business and help community. You have to be tactful and diplomatic or get a bunch of bad reviews.

Sorry to hear that, Daniel. There's always one of those type of people in a bunch, huh?

[@Katy-land]

You are doing great work! Keep it going please!!! These other grifters are doing the numismatic community harm by making people think that every coin in their pocket is worth a million dollars 🤦‍♀️ The fact that we have put so much time, effort, money, eyesight (😉)… to become knowledgeable about the world of coins and then people think they will get rich by finding a wheat cent, or any coin they think is worth something, because they are ignorant to the world of numismatics. I looked at thousands of small cents when I started, before I even started making opinions on any cent! You are great! Thank you 🌹

Hello Daniel, I wouldnt take that to heart.your videos are extremely helpful and very informative.please keep up the good work as people like myself are extremely grateful!

[@F1083]

One of the problems is that the Sheldon scale is soo unintuitive. For us MS62 and MS67 have a firm meaning. For the newbies MSxx means nothing, it might be best to quickly explain that this is high grade uncirculated better than 99% of all uncirculated cents. It may be an archaic term but uncirculated has a firmer definition to the general public. I will often see coin channels explain that D means Denver and then just jump right into MS68 without explaining it.

[@sfkimrush]

[@UneducatedGeologist]

Daniel, I love what you say and show at 5min-8min mark. Here's an idea to save you hundreds of non productive hours conversing online about worthless coins.....Make 1 or a handful shorts showing exactly what you just did but in more detail. Show how to search topics in your videos and how to find the help u community on Facebook or wherever else they can be found. If you should still find yourself conversing with someone about a coin worth 5c they think is worth $1,000. Have a generic response template with 1 or handful of shorts saying watch these for more information.

[@sunjestersilver999]

Daniel, I’ve been watching your videos for a few years learning along the way. Like many of us, I too have been in coin shops where there are the “I’m just looking” to the buyers/sellers of Constitutional silver, to the experienced buyer knowing exactly what to buy. Though you’re right, everyone thinks they have the “one” coin, it’s the delivery for understanding their emotions. If the coin was inherited, perhaps approach it with how May I help today? Then once their needs are explain, provide the steps taken about how your “price” was determined. Being an expert is awesome, but most don’t understand. Keep up the videos as your knowledge and experience is great wealth!

I have been watching you now for about a month, same with messing with coins. I watch at LEAST 10 of your videos daily. What I have learned is that even though I think my coins are special, because i have a Large pile... 3 weeks later I learning that they were not special. I will look at the same coin each week to see if what I saw is still there. mostly not. I do have coins that I cant wait to show, inquire about. But when I do bother someone, you, I want to be damn sure I have something that I should be looking for. It might not be a fortune but is what you told me I should be looking for. I swear, the power of my mind I see stuff that is not there. its like its manifested to what I want to see, next day its gone... Im not certifiable.

This person was trying to front because you gave him a factual, truthful answer he didn’t like when he found possibly a coin sold in perfect condition, where I don’t know. In this day and age we are surrounded by ways to research coins, not like when I was a kid. You just have to accept that education is difficult and it doesn’t always take on some people.

I collected pennies when I was a kid. When I was 14, I figured out that pennies were not where my money should go. I tried V nickels but nobody liked them so I had nobody to guide me. Forward to 2009 and gold became my coin of choice. I would not ever spend money buying any silver coins or collecting any of them. There are plenty of them to go around and not enough takers to convicne me they are worth collecting. The proof is when you see how many silver dollars appear everywhere for sale in bags and bags as far as the eye can see.

[@Kramitupurs]

Hello Daniel I watch and listen to your help a lot and I have for several years. In truth I never say anything because you cover pretty much everything. Know I'm nobody but I have come by a handful of coins sense I saw you the first time and I expect to make more of it soon. Well it might be the most far out thing and may or may not even be your responsibility because the only reason I really ever watched after the first time was because I was blown away by the fact that the world might be so small. Just like the Lincoln cent. I say this because I was 14 miles N of Muleshoe ranch at Jackson cabin and my mule just had escaped and my lady and myself were tracking the critter that we finely found at Muleshoe. Anyways a couple gentlemen arrived at Jackson as she and I were leaving and then later caught up to us walking and give us a ride. I know far out huh.

Most dealers sell wheat pennies are selling them for 4 cents a piece. You can go to USA coin book online to find prices and the condition of the coin make a big difference. You have red pennies then I think red brown and finally brown pennies. What I saw in the picture was that the penny was the brown type. Some once said if you tell a he is going to die tomorrow they will find a way to do it.

That is what is so frustrating about dealing with people that just do not know a brown from a red 1c coin. To them they are all the same I suppose? They just don`t know what they don`t know. There are things we know that we don`t know, and things we don`t know that we don`t know. The disconnect is talking to those that do not know what they do not know. They are just oblivious to the not knowing of something they think they do know. In short, some people are just plain stupid and do not even realize they are stupid. I guess it just goes with the territory of being a coin dealer or any dealer of something the patron is completely uneducated about.

[@christophergreyson6953]

Most people are uneducated on just about any subject, not just coin collecting. I'm not sure why this is the case when the internet gives one the opportunity to learn about just about anything, but one must put the time in beyond a simple one time google search. The problem is most people refuse to understand the limitations of their own brain and be humble about how difficult and how much time is required to become an expert in any subject realm. They do a google search and that's the limit to what they know and then think they know enough to give opinions or knowledge about said subject. The smartest people are the ones that realize they don't know hardly anything about everything.

[@CoinHELPu]

I explain that in my videos.

[@rebeccazakutney5024]

You've got to realize that you can't please everyone and focus your energy and time on the people that are trying to gain knowledge not value one coin they hope to solve their financial problems. As a kid you ask mom and don't like the answer so you ask dad and get the same one. Give them your answer and let them go one their way and find a better one if they can. They'll be looking 2 years from now and still have an average coin and not the answer they're looking for or a better value. Let go of the people that can't be helped and you can spot them by the line of questioning whether they're interested in the hobby or hoping to become rich after watching a youtube video. Good luck and thanks for all the help that has educated collectors who value your knowledge and time.

[@CoinHELPu]

I am answering their question not wasting my time, it’s part of my business. It’s frustrating when they act like I don’t know what I am talking about. That is all

[@rebeccazakutney5024]

@CoinHELPu in my opinion when they don't listen to your wealth of knowledge about a penny they happen to find and then challenge your answer with repeated banter that is the definition of time wasted and not hearing you is totally frustrating. I was only saying that your frustration could be avoided by recognizing the ones you can't help by the way they start challenging you. Choosing my battles is something I've worked on and not trying to prove that I'm right when they're never going to hear me is something that's taken time but l know could possibly help on you with frustrating situations.

[@remyferrari8501]

Many people hear but they don’t listen. We’ve devolved into a society that wants answers up front, without working for it.🤦‍♂️

[@markwilliams5811]

Hey Daniel, You do a great job but you can't fix people who do not listen and really look at the coins. The Red grade no matter who rates it looks Red, nothing like what people ask values of circ cents. Love the show thanks.

[@jimsmith4468]

That wheat cent of his is only worth .3 cents because of the worn condition, l understand what you're saying and love all your videos as well 👌✅

[@johnwilkos8499]

Daniel, you do great work and explain everything really well, there is just to many idiots out there !

[@josepha9313]

People like that not interested in coins, they're looking for a lot of cash from someone for what is essentially pocket change.

[@MrSafetyForever]

Very kind of you to help others with their numismatic questions. Take Care

[@the_big_dog813]

This will sound a bit blunt, but the person who emailed you is a clown. To beleive the Internet AI nonsense without knowing anything is just foolish. This person should actually spend some time learning, which this person has certainly not done. Your high grade Lincoln video is excellent and even a child would recognize that the posted coin was nowhere near MS63, much less that much higher.

So. This dude tried out for a basketball team and didn’t make it. Now everyone else sucks instead of him. Don’t worry, you’re great.

I'm not being mean when I say that some folks are beyond help when it comes to the value of their coins. I've been collecting coins for years and have bought some personal collections. Some folks think that their collection of worn out Franklin half dollars and handful of G-VG V nickels is worth far more than it is to anyone. I sometimes go out of my way to explain to them why their collection isn't worth what they think it is. Twice people have gotten angry with me like I was slandering them or something. Nobody can make their coins as valuable as they believe them to be and I'm honestly not sure how to explain to these novices that their collections are like a million others out there

Go Bucks!

It's not you, Daniel. The wealth of information and support you provide the coin community is virtually unmatched. Unfortunately what you are dealing with is all too frequent these days; i.e., someone who took a single fact and built a story about how the cent he has should be worth as much as a MS red issue. I see this all the time in my field (science) where people misunderstand, misinterpret, or outright dissemble to make their opinion seem valid. Sadly, I don't think we will see this change anytime soon.

[@matthewcarey7323]

I can't help but just laugh. Clearly he has no knowledge, is not interested in knowledge and is only interested in "SHOW ME THE MONEY". He thinks he found a quick and easy pay day, came down with a case of gold type fever which clouds his judgement. Sadly, even if we were to use your community, nothing would change, he would be the same way. Everyone in the community would be wrong as well. You just have to let it go. You did your part, you gave them the honest and correct info, which is why you are one of the best out there.

[@LstrO42]

It's not easy to convey the reality of how rare and unlikely it is to have such a valuable coin in the first place, adding a misinformed reinforcement to their belief only breeds more negative interactions like that. The only real solution is education. Something about a horse and water.......

[@scottymoondogjakubin4766]

I dont mind the grumpy ! The videos more than make up for that !
