Love these Coin Guy videos..... because I can remember the "way back when" days he talks about. Having a paper route in the early 60's and having some extra money (silver coins jingling in my pockets) to buy a candy bar for a nickel...a big candy bar at that! Thanks for sharing these Spegtacular! Greatly appreciated! Take care, be safe and God bless!

We used to go to the corner Mom & Pop store (We had two to choose from.) and buy a hamburger, a snack cake like the snowballs or cupcakes, and a bottle of Pepsi and get change from a dollar. The hamburger was $0.50, the cake was $0.25, and the 10oz bottle of Pepsi was $0.20. If you splurged, cheeseburgers were $0.55. However, the nickel you saved bought a bit of penny candy. You could fill up one of those hand-sized paper bags with penny candy for a dime that was probably silver. Now we're talking 1968-69.

Very interesting to see the coin guy breaking higher graded slabs open because he doesn't believe the grade given is correct. That's an honest guy with integrity. I like how personable and relatable he is. He understands the average everyday American struggle's.

And they’re trying to get rid of the older generation by making meds hard to get and expensive. They’ve shoved meds down our throats instead of educating on healthier supplements and food. I’ve tried being healthier but it interferes with my meds and makes me feel sicker. It’s kind of like a withdrawal from prescriptions but our older bodies can’t handle it? I take as many supps as my body can stand anyways but it’s a long process that is confusing at times. Just makes me wonder how many will be left to share all that knowledge/wisdom and just great stories. I try and say as much as the kids will listen to but they are easily distracted. They have no clue what’s going on and don’t want to hear it. I’m breaking their good vibes. 😳 Man it’s gonna be a rough road ahead. And they’ll wish I was still around to ask like I wish my dad was still around to ask or my gma. Man how many times I’ve said that…can’t even count

Strangely enough, I can still remember when I bought my ag 1916-D Merc dime.... called an order in from a pay phone at work off of an ad I saw in a coin magazine from one of the dealers....sent a money order for $88 for it and received it in about 2 weeks. That helped me complete my dime collection at the time. When I sold the set a few years later, I doubled my money on the set.....ah, I remember.....

Favorite coin duo on YT! Great video and awesome collection! 🫡
I am the same age as Coin Guy and grew up in the Bronx. I would go to the movies on a Saturday, 3 movies a cartoon and a short. The candy counter sold a pack of 10 cookies for 5 cents. My allowance was 25cents daily which I would get a Pepsi and 3 cupcakes! They were the days, I delivered The Post newspaper and a customer got the paper 6 days for 60 cents which my cut was 13 cents after knocking on doors at night to collect the 60 cents. I averaged 11 cents per customer in tips. Life was good and if you hustled you could pick up some money shoveling snow or carrying groceries at the supermarket. Converse sneakers were $9.00 which I could not afford. Great video and bless the Coin Guy.

I thought I was the only “nerd” who would organize copper pennies!!! Some people would be surprised at the pennies that can be found in circulation. I have a set of Lincoln sets, only missing two.

Those angled slab display cases... Don't like 'em. Yes, I can see how they can save space when you have a dozen coins with the same design, but that is rarely the case with world coins. It's more important to see coin than the label. If I'm just browsing, the label isn't going to catch my eye, the coin is.

I had a friend that 10 years or so back was purchasing $50,000.00 in pennies at a time. He had 5 machines set up to sort for the copper pennies. Copper price was high if you recovered the copper by smelting the penny was worth more then a penny. The government literally passed a law that your couldn't destroy currency. He was stuck with a bunch of pennies. I think there was a lot more people then him doing it.

BE CAREFUL! I had the same rifle in polymer in 9mm caliber. I was shooting it on my mini range at my house and I loaded a new mag, racked the bolt, and the damn thing fired as soon as it chambered the round. It was pointed down range so no damage was done but I did have to change my underwear! I sold it to a friend and told him about the malfunction. I bought the weapon new and did clean the shipping lube before shooting including cleaning the firing pin. Just a bit of info to make everyone aware that this happened. Just be aware that this did happen to me and I am an avid shooter and practice gun safety,
