I Bought An Old Coin Collection - Trade Dollars, Capped Busts & MORE!

[@RobFindsTreasure]

In this video, I will search through all the old Silver coins and other coins from the 2 bags I purchased from my Silver/Coin Dealer. I paid $1500 in total but he knows the things I like and said that a customer came in and just sold all of their coin collection to him. Since I usually purchase all the old silver and he knows I like copper too, he let me get it all! I will be looking for key dates, semi key dates, upgrades, and of course and varieties within the years I hunt. I also will be assessing the value of the 2 bags to see if I did good in buying this coin collection. Hopefully you all enjoy this video! I know it's a bit long, but we had a lot to go through! As always - Happy Hunting and Thanks for Watching AND keep Stacking that silver my friends!!!

Rob, that is a Twenty Cent piece not a quarter!

[@tomkirby3281]

Agreed. He should see the eagle looks different, and he had the zoom in where it clearly said TWENTY. Also, it is slightly smaller, but it is too close in size to the quarter, leading to the short life of this series.

[@leosCoins]

LOL

[@badnomad357]

Big diff in price

[@EarlHiggins]

That's exactly why I went down here to comment! Counterintuitive but the 1875-S 20 cent piece is not nearly as valuable as the 1875-S quarter.

[@hadleysmomma]

Definitely a 20 cent piece! Not a quarter! Quite valuable!!!!

[@C3Poe]

Absolutely would love to see more of this kind of videos.

[@Whimsik]

Modern silver is nice, but I love the 1800's coins! It's almost like you can feel the history

[@donutman.24]

17:30 A TWENTY CENT PIECE! That’s so awesome!!

I know! So cool! Of course I have it already... My excitement and the sheer amount of coins made me miss it.

[@c.tedbarber4140]

@@RobFindsTreasure considering how close in size as it is to the quarter its probably a main reason they only made them for a few years just like the SBA dollars had upon release.

That 20 cent piece though.... definitely worth more than the 30 dollar value you place on it XD

[@Trollamollex]

It never hurts to low ball your value and get more when the time comes lol

[@mr.brightside7195]

Rob, this was a fun video and you should do more when the opportunity presents itself. A purchase like this is sort of a surprise, like opening a birthday gift from a good friend. Your excitement and enthusiasm make many of your videos a success. These collection purchases are a must-do video and you prepare and execute them well. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@teddyted137]

I don’t talk to the videos, but I can’t tell you how quick I sat up when you were at 1912-S cent and were getting close to 09’s. I was almost screaming for you to hit the 09-s vdb. Fun hunt!

[@RobFindsTreasure]

It was on my mind. Odd that they were bagged in date order but added to my excitement as we climbed down the S Minted wheat cent ladder!

[@nekrospike]

That brothel coin is pretty cool, lol.

Did not know that about the brothel coin. Wow, what one cent used to buy!

The 1875-S "quarter" is a "double dime",twenty cent piece.Nice find as is the whole collection.

[@eddigsdiscoveries1332]

I Love it when you get something like this and tell us what you paid for it. Not that I am that nosey, just that it let's me know what to expect to pay for coins like this giving me a better Idea so I don't get taken by someone

[@alfredodaire7972]

No need to apologize! That was great to watch, loved the trade dollars and the capped busts! Great score overall

[@jeffw1267]

That coin at 17:30 is a twenty-cent piece, not a Seated Liberty quarter. It's a little smaller than a quarter and has a smooth rather than a reeded edge. The eagle on the reverse also looks like that on a Trade dollar. That's good news because the twenty-cent coin is worth considerably more than the common 1875-S quarter.

[@Cardmaster12]

It’s funny cuz the 1875S 20 cent piece actually had a substantially higher mintage than the 1875S quarter, it’s just more desired and as such worth a lot more.

[@broella6493]

Love to see these old coins. I have several old silver coins my grandfather left to me. The oldies just have so much character..

[@carmenmarino5945]

Nice pick up Rob! It’s always fun to see the older coins, stuff that is not the everyday pieces. The trade dollars are fantastic. Don’t see too many of them n your typical coin shop. You probably undervalued the collection by 5-10%, especially on some of the hard to find coins. Wish I had a dealer who would call me when stuff like that comes in lol.

U forgot to apologize in advance for the length of this video. Cool stuff and you must really trust your dealer. I bet he looked at it quickly and was like this is a lot of work to look up each one with no crazy amount of value so it made more business sense to pass it along to you to search. Win win for both parties.

Me too, and the Trade Dollars.

[@dwaynecollins4974]

I just acquired some of the barbers and a peace dollar in the same years as yours that were high relief and except for the two of them having (one Barber and the 1921 peace dollar) the black tarnish on one side of the coins they're in excellent shape in my opinion and I'm going to go with your experience with coins and say that they're worth what you quoted easily. Considering all's I did was do some repair work for this lady in exchange for them I came out way ahead I feel pretty good about adding them to my collection! Thanks Rob you're the man!

Very cool video! I used to only stack silver bullion and junk silver coins, but I've been getting into numismatics. It all started with a scratch-n-dent bag from Portsmouth Coin, then I got the 2022 Redbook, now I've got a 3-ring binder full of old coins. I actually bought the same microscope you use, should be here Tuesday 😃

I love long videos!! You did pretty good. I love the trade dollars and the cropped bust half dollars.

[@ricks1093]

I know this is an older video. I just watched it though. Same thing happened to me with the 1965 Quarter. I bought a bag of 90% from my local coin dealer. When I got it home, I went through it and there was one 1965 quarter in the bag. At $20/per face, that was a $5 quarter that I didn't get. That sucked... Great video Rob.

[@RobFindsTreasure]

I hear you. It has now happened twice to me!

[@Nick.Bruce.13]

Great vid bro! I ain’t mad when you have a long vid at all bcuz they’re always fantastic! As I always say, your a true fountain of coin knowledge - love it! The best part of this vid was that large cent with the “alterations” - if you will - because I never heard the back story behind those, super interesting!! I wish you could have went into more detail, although I def understand that you were trying to keep it rated G as well haha….But when you were explaining the situation on that large cent about the “E” changed to a “U” - your chuckle as you were tip-toeing around it - was absolutely priceless!!! Hahaha good stuff brother!

It was fun sorting through and I got to help out the teller. Good will there. There we also domed and quarters but only a few 2009 quarters. Still helped build a relationship with a teller.

[@jeffw1267]

Take those Trade dollars to a dealer you trust and have them checked out: they were very heavily counterfeited. It was easy to pass them off at the time of issue because most people in America had never seen them. They were made to circulate overseas (mostly in China). And later on, when they gained numismatic value, they were also counterfeited to a large extent. I wouldn't buy one by itself unless it were in a slab already.

[@RobFindsTreasure]

I hear ya. Luckily, the collection was purchased by my reputable dealer and he validates everything before he buys/sells. I would not recommend buying trade dollars unslabbed from eBay or anywhere you cannot trust as well.

[@kitrichardson5573]

Generally speaking, it’s advisable to get one or two nice coins for $1500 then a grab bag of AG to very good coins. But it always depends on what you’re looking for for it looks like you actually have those Whiteman folder books and you insert these dimes and quarters as you find them in rough shape and if you enjoy collecting that this is much more efficient than buying those coins individually
