This has to be the best video of the errors of the bicentennial quarter ever. Thank you.

[@MintMiser]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@shannoncully13]

Agreed

[@timeddy5158]

Interesting that when I have a coin like this, dealers call it machine doubling but when the dealer has one like this, it’s a double die. Go figure!

[@maxf7351]

Having cake and eating it too is the dealer game. Gotta learn what machine doubling is compared to a DD- bc isn't it died by machines? It's BS

[@jnesrh420]

House rules it seems....booo!

[@ArcaneJawa]

My experience with dealers is disappointing. I feel many of them are swindlers.

[@user-qv6gw4wy4l]

99.9% are thieves they say don't clean your coins I sold a rare quarter to a dealer for 80 dollars, I know for a fact he used a Dremel with a soft cloth bit cleaned it like new and asked 8500 for it, ya they don't want us to clean them SO THEY CAN AND MAKE BIG MONEY. WHENS THE LAST time you ever went to a coin shop and saw a rough Condition coin for sale well u won't cause they are lying scumbags they want the opportunity of cleaning them and getting all the glory. I know this because I found out exactly how they do it and sent one that I cleaned to pcgs for grading and they sent it. Back to me with an ms66+ grade I cleaned the coin that was worth a little more than face value cleaned it properly came back an ms66+ worth $$725 these coin dealers make car dealers look like saints lol, just a bit of info that all people to know.

[@Tkdm5]

Because all coin dealers are full of shit and bullshitter trying to hustle someone that’s why

[@alanmolox2095]

This is a GREAT coin-geek video, I enjoyed every minute of it! I remember when I was a kid in grade school when this quarter came out. I also remember the painting of all the fire hydrants with patriotic red-white & blue artwork to strut your patriot stuff. Ahhh, those were the days.

[@richgrous6394]

You'll scratch a million dollar ticket before you will find that error coin. Have a bunch of them. 25 cents is all there worth.

[@glennallen496]

I've been collecting bicentennials since the early 90's and have enough to completely fill an old, 3 lb Yuban coffee can. I estimate that I have over 1500 quarters as well as over a hundred half-dollars. Also about 20 dollar coins. Never figured they'd ever be worth more than face value, so now I'm gonna have to go through them all.

[@OilyAnimal3]

Did you go through them and find any good good ones?

[@filimongomez-zg6kl]

9:31 9:33 thanks for all this information. It's great stuff to know.

Thank you for the info explained in this video. Ive many many coin to search and all the info helps 😁👍

Thanks so much for this info!

[@philspd473]

I have a bicentenial silver with no mint mark. I plan on sending it out for grading.

[@prophetforprofit1431]

Yep my brother had a DDR and it was so bad it made you dizzy it was located around the stars torch and E-PLURIBUS UNUM it was stolen after he passed away its a one of a kind and if i ever recognize a name tied to a sale im gunna 🤯🤬🤬🤬

[@QuaaludeCharlie]

Wow , I had not even known they made some in Silver , Will keep an eye out :) QC

[@MintMiser]

Several million silver bicentennial quarters were melted down in the 80's due to a silver shortage. There would have been a lot more out there. Thanks QC!

[@Linnea-zb7iw]

I've been finding these quarters in my change lately.

[@breaker86]

Yes ! me too...In my laundry money...I find a few proofs ,

[@Linnea-zb7iw]

Yeah, it's hard for me to see the doubling on coins. My eyes are bad.so I'm glad I found this video

[@Sleghammer]

I've had a couple doubles, which I was told they were not. The best ones were where nobody I asked could tell me what the 1940's half's missing AF looked like. Engravers had to add them cause the die was worn. I "had" 4 or 5. Then I had a 41 Filipino dime with the die crack, but was told it wasn't. Then I had two 1941 us dimes and the words "in God we trust" were wavy, like so ~~ and this is my favorite answer of all. Post mint damage. It seems to me that in most circles a little guy can't have a coin. Only the big guys can find errors and such.

[@MintMiser]

Is it possible it was machine doubling?

[@4kasiavlogs]

Did you sell those for a lot of money?

[@Sleghammer]

@@MintMiser I don't know

[@Sleghammer]

Ok i made no money on what I had because I'm poor white trash and am seen and treated as such. I had a few "dealers" tell me that I had nothing. I am financially unable to get anything graded and I am limited on what sort of equipment I have and need. All I have is a Moto g 5g. Nothing more. And the only reason I have that is because the guy at the store lied and said the one I really wanted was unavailable. So then help convinced me to get a Moto g 5g stylus. And guess what, that's not what I got. Boost is a disaster. They lie trick you and get you to take something that's isn't what you agreed on. I should have stayed with ST. Putting that aside back to the coins. I need a cheap but good digital usb microscope that I can connect to my phone. I have no other devices, no comp, laptops 😔😔 tablet or otherwise.

[@user-gt7ji9of9z]

I know silver by difference in the drop sound 👍.

[@willyvictorino1158]

Nice explanation

[@krr104]

I found a bicentennial that has a very shiny coating that appears almost gold. It has several spots of tarnish on the coating. Any idea why it’s so shiny?

[@ladyluna4172]

🤘😁 thanks for the info have some too 😅. N yes their “D”. Ur amazing too ✨🔥🥁🔥

[@snakeplisken2123]

I have a steel cent with a big blotch on the back, the middle 60% is faint not sure if it’s a lamination error or struck through grease on the die but it’s interesting. I want to get it graded but I want to have enough coins to grade that it’s worth the effort.

[@kayleejustice8756]

If it’s a steel penny then it’ll be worth it no matter what.

[@ramonaperez5061]

I love these quarters!🥰

[@billyjohnesterhuizen6340]

BEAUTIFUL COINS MY FRIEND

[@guidorea8347]

I have about 6 rolls that took out of circulation.... I need to go through those and see what I have.... 😊

[@Montacap1]

I have 3 of these coins. I know very little about all of this just instinct and hey that looks strange to use as tools. Which seems to be working out. I also have a skill for adapting so I find ways to look for what others ignore. I am just now learni g that this is a super power of mine. I am pushing 5 decades on this planet and not easy ones so I am thrilled to finally know I can screw up in reverse as mach ones said but they also said... Take my avice pull down your pants and slide down the ice. Good advice. Have fun y'all.

[@johnathansaegal3156]

0:45 ... I remember my aunt entering this contest in 1974 (the contest began in '73) ... ever since the Bicentennial Quarter came out, neither my parents, nor myself ever spent any Bicentennial Quarters. As it stands today, there is a massive lockbox in my mom's house just filled with those quarters. I suppose it's time to visit Mom and carefully go through their "common coin" stash of Wheat Pennies, Bicentennial Quarters and all the half dollars/dollar coins Mom and my late father have saved since the 1950s. I know they just dump the coins into those lockboxes as they find them in their change, so most will be definitely circulated, but maybe, just maybe there will be a bright, shiny needle in those haystacks of worn needles.

[@MintMiser]

You never know, it might be worth checking. Does your aunt still have a copy of her design entry for the bicentennial contest?

[@johnathansaegal3156]

@@MintMiser I have no clue if my aunt has her copy. The whole family got together for a BBQ and "let's see if we can design something" party. All of my aunts, uncles (fourteen aunts and uncles if you can believe how large my family is) and my parents drew up designs, but my aunt was the only actual artist with talent to create something special. If she still has it, I would have to call her up and ask. I was only 6 back then, and my crayon drawing was NOT something to keep. I would like to know if she still has it, too. I don't even remember her design, but since she does have folders of her art, she might. I'll let you know if she still has it!

[@MintMiser]

@@johnathansaegal3156 Great story! I’d love to see her entry if she has it. Thanks!

What about these quarters sealed in bicentennial proof sets?

[@user-jh8ts7kt3w]

I've been noticing a lot of people putting information on here about our coins or American currency and other ones are foreign and they are not adequate about what they are saying actually telling us lies keeping us memorized it's not right to do this to us as we are all trying to have a little piece of the pie is nothing wrong with enjoying the freedom of our great country and enjoying the currency that keeps us all thriving although when somebody makes a mistake when printing such things out there is a tendency for someone to want to collect them and that's good but why do you want to throw it into the garbage and make it look stupid like everyone knows there's no peas use generally on mint marks on coins especially pennies thank you

Toning can look really good on a coin if it's natural but it usually won't result in a premium on a coin.

Did they have a S mint mark ? If so they could have been silver. If not they were not .
