I used to watch Pawn Stars like some stuff went for hundreds of thousands of dollars like Picasso paintings, cars, bikes, relics, & more with Pete it's all cheap stuff.. Peter just seems to attract viewers like us in the tens of thousands. I come to realize it's his personification as well as trust & honesty feathered by his parrot and cat which brings animal lovers too..

Awesome video Pete. I like how you heard the silver right away and gave him extra money for his money. Most guys would just pocket it. A 90% 1964 Kennedy is around $7.50 melt but you can sell them for $9.00 to a coin shop (18 times face and they resell it for 22 times face). The 1965-1971 40% melt value is around $3.00 and are resold for around $3.50. You are awesome Pete.

@chaicharin, you have no clue what you are talking about, no coin shop in the USA will buy a 90% half dollar (cull) for $9.00. They would go out of business in a week, every silver dealer in America would flock to them. I been buying and selling for over 3 decades. A coin shop may offer 80% value for 90% Silver coins at best. And a 1971 has 0 Silver. By the way, most Coin shops sell 18x face at the top.

To make sure your signs your gonna hang up are theft proof would be putting a carriage bolt in each corner just small ones and the nut would be on inside of the ply wood and then only way to steal sign is to be able to take the ply wood down then unbolt it tojcj work for any theif and I think that will make sure they never get stolen, carriage bolts are the ones that have round heads on the all smooth and a square that locks into the hole and you put a locking nut on back side and bolt it up.. and also Pete those are called impact gun not hammer drill. Hammer drill is a big drill with all kinds of bits that hammers and drills at same time for drilling through concrete or just hammer with a different bit for breaking up concrete and brick walls.
