[@tomtharos4440]

Rare does not equal valuable. It’s amazing how many people are duped by the “limited” mintage snake oil, especially when put in a fancy box.

[@SilverSeeker]

Calm down... I'm not a newb. I enjoy things like this I didn't buy them to make a profit. I was quite clear about that in the video

[@jake8077]

If you are willing to "do the work" by staying up late at night ... the TV has some amazing deals on silver eagles

[@scotttousey227]

Lol i know what you mean ​and ya some pretty kool some beautiful@@SilverSeeker

[@TheogRahoomie]

@@SilverSeekerI only buy the semi numismatics that I personally enjoy and don’t plan on ever selling them.

[@tomtharos4440]

@@SilverSeeker It was a great video. I think you misunderstood. There are a number of KZbinrs getting free blobs of silver with a pretty face painted on them, and telling the audience these blobs of painted silver are special and limited. Not to pick on the mint making ugly blobs of silver, painting them with glow in the dark paint and selling them for a 100+% premium, most of which goes back to the mint. I thought it was very poignant when the guy graciously said he recognized the value but knew it would sit in the shop for a while so wouldn’t pay top dollar. I have similar high premium bullion pieces and am under no illusion they are worth any more than spot.

[@charlesroof7121]

Colorized coins are a matter of individual taste not for investment. While beautiful they have a limited appeal. The fact that they have a residual silver value is a redeeming factor. Thank you for sharing!

[@litigioussociety4249]

I think it ruins the coin, but to each their own.

[@bethanyhealy4989]

It's a damaged coin

[@alwaysseekingsilver]

I really enjoyed seeing some of your personal collection and hearing the passion and excitement about those items. I also appreciated hearing what you paid for them, and recent comps info. I’d love to see a similar video on some numismatic coins in your collection, especially Morgans and Peace dollars, but anything you personally find appealing or happy to look at.

[@michaelrussell5736]

I’d love to see another of these. I buy non stacking collectibles from time to time so you’ve peeked my interest.

[@stevec7712]

I thought I was going to see pre 1933 GOLD and Pre 1800 American Silver - Colored Coins - BA BA BA

[@SilverSeeker]

Title specifically says silver and they aren't all colored lol

[@dang4866]

Silver Dragons probably shelled out that $1,000😊

[@SweetSilver805]

I like the video, but I was expecting Morgan dollars and the like…

[@SweetSilver805]

I have lots of mermaid semi numismatic coins too

[@sonnygunz9207]

I was waiting for the Morgan’s too.

[@williambush7971]

I had to start getting rid of my collectable coins since my son and wife how no desire or interest in coin collecting. I'd rather sell them now so I get decent money for them than letting them get screwed.

[@JohnConsedine-ex1cz]

I agree completely. Sell them now a bit at a time. Or, leave very explicit notes with values and LCS address and phone numbers that you trust. I have a good friend who recently retired. He has a ton of free time now and drives to garage sales all over Southern California every week: San Diego, Riverside and Los Angeles Counties mostly. Once or twice a month he finds very valuable collections being sold at 10% or less of the fair market value. He is ethical and tries to tell the family that they have priced the coins way too low. Sometimes the family is appreciative and pulls the collection for future sale. Sometimes he tells me the family member says, "you want it or not?". He will show current prices on his phone and they don't care. Just this year, he picked up a box with bank rolled pre 64 half dollars. Many were from the late 40s and early 50s. Some, were much older.There were 22 rolls of $10 rolls. The family wanted $250 for all the coins. He told them it was worth thousands. Their response was it's got to go. He ended up buying the box for $250 and went through all the coins and selling them over the last few monthsfor over $10k at LCS.

[@jimlewis5477]

I stay away from anything that was colorized or altered after leaving the mint.

[@ah5836]

it's fine if you buy it because you genuinely like it, but just assume the money you pay above it's bullion value will never be returned in a future sale.

[@josephchristianson3001]

We go from legal tender in the initial examples to medallions or fantasy pieces. All are only worth the base metal spot price unless there is an emotional element driving the purchasing decision, and I guess that is the difference between a stacker and a collector.

[@douglaswilliams6834]

@josephchristianson3001 Wrong. The items Silver Seeker featured in this video would all sell for far more than their melt value if he put them on eBay. It would be very foolish to sell them for silver spot price.

[@mikesemones8333]

I have one colored silver eagle I picked up in coin collection I bought,generally I don't buy colorized rounds or coins,but to each his own,if it makes you happy then buy what you like,that's what makes for the greatest hobby in the world.

[@lindathomas2350]

Wow that was fun looking at your special pieces! I really enjoyed that! I'm not into buying really expensive stuff but I sure like to look at it! I would love it if you did it again with some of your other things! This was an excellent episode!🎉

[@daveg1312]

Interesting video! I suggest it would also be cool to do a video like like focused on examples of some older numismatic us coins...

[@SilverSeeker]

Good Idea... Noted!

[@riptheskull796]

The 1oz reaper is the only 1 I would pay over spot for, I am very picky with what goes in the collection......

[@Danthecoinman68]

Not my bag . Im too old school. Most of my collection are old slabs , mostly rattlers . Half and half common stuff , and really nice stuff . At the moment working a Peace Dollar year set . Just finished a Morgan set . All in rattlers , except 93.94.95 . Nice video ...😢

[@toynoob2051]

Where do you buy them from?

[@LizaJane84]

❤ That was fun to watch and really good comparison to Ice🍦Cream vs 🤑stacking...

[@blake7587]

I love Peace Dollars for some reason. They deserve the same love other 90% “junk silver” gets. Afterall in a real barter scenario you’re likely not going to be bartering tiny dimes and quarters. More likely going to be larger amounts if you’re buying gas or whatever.

[@meteoman7958]

Your dealer friend is quite generous. In the shop where I volunteer, they would offer close to spot for all of those coins and sell them for 10 to 15% over.

[@SilverSeeker]

Why tho when they can sell them online for way more? If your shop is only interested in Silver and Gold and not collectibles, then what you say they pay makes sense. But sell them for 10% over? Makes zero sense when they can get WAY more online. Like throwing money away Especially the 5oz Dragon

[@meteoman7958]

@@SilverSeeker The turnover is very fast with most sales going to dealers who then can work hard at making their profit.

[@ezal3634]

Would love to see the rest of your collection! :)

[@anthonyiocca5683]

It goes for, what you will take, and what someone else will pay. That is known as realized price. Every time it changes owners the price is realized. At a auction when many interested people bid is also know as realized at auction, typically the highest value will be realized from a advertised auction. Coin collecting is always pumped up by avid collectors. It’s not an exclusive club often enjoyed by many…

[@ericreen6168]

Enjoyed this guys. Love the true business carry perspective from Josh. Thanks. JOSH START SELLING TO VERMONT!!!

[@jeffrummell2348]

Well, with the US Mint raising all the prices on Silver. They want over $90.00 now for the Peace dollar, which isn't even a oz. Need to talk with him about all the new prices the US Mint just put out. $97.00 for a Proof Eagle? Come on they are killing me.

[@Numismaniac_Canada]

Enjoyable video. Thanks for sharing! 😊

[@michaelporter5679]

Thank you for telling us what you paid for them and what they are worth, I just wish that more coin shows on KZbin would do this.awesome collection 😃😃👍👍👍

[@mitchellreid4205]

If you expect to make an investment with a return. Buy key dates only

[@michaelallison4144]

Them are some really beautiful coins, I'm definitely more a collector than stacker, i know myself i have probably overpaid for coins, but its coins i really wanted, thanks for sharing

[@FrankySilverFace]

You have some really nice collectables there.

[@jacktregellas4355]

I really like this video on semi numismatic silver collecting. I also have pieces that are high relief beautiful two-ounce low mintage that I bought mostly when I first started stacking(collecting) silver. I now focus mostly on close to spot bullion, but now and then something comes along that I can relate to from some experience in my life that I can't resist. I think you should show more of semi numies.

[@milessakauye8819]

Hey Seeker, thanks for the vlog! Great info from Josh. Thanks for sharing those very cool pieces. Probably need a collectors anonymous for us collectors.

[@cosmiccreations888]

Great Video Seeker !! TY

[@ah5836]

I've always wondered, who out there actually wants the presentation boxes from the mints? We always keep them because with the full packaging it is easier to resell. But outside of that, is there actually anybody anywhere who wants the boxes for the sake of owning the boxes???

[@Blue_Siberian]

nice pieces finding the ones that have a meaning or catch your eye is part of Stacking

[@kaceydillin7367]

Hides my Libertads……

[@JohnHuntt]

Thanks for giving us some idea what to pay for those type of coins. I was hoping you might have shown coins that have nusmatic value. Morgans that have been from the mint recently, They claim it will go up in value. JH

[@steveib8118]

Great video, I totally buy these type silver coins as well, knowing full well I'm probably going to loss money them. But I enjoy them and it's my money to lose. Love to see more.😊

[@soulpatchjackson3076]

Str8 BALLER! I don't have a collector's lot.....but I probably do.

[@danalloyd1733]

Does anyone really collect colorized? This, for me, holds no appeal. I collect more for the silver and rarity value. Some of the may be rare but do nothing for me.

[@TexCen]

IMO/IME? No, but - personal preference. I don't deal in colorized either bc I don't like 'em, but all the more why I'd have no idea what they're worth/able to be re-sold for.

[@petesquarterlifecrisis887]

Always fun seeing another collectors collection, thanks for showing it off. Was thinking you were going to pull out an EverQuest coin for a moment there instead of galaga. Now I need to find an EverQuest coin haha.

[@SilverSeeker]

I played so much EQ in the day lol. Need to find one myself :)

[@ryr635]

Unfortunately I'm not just sick, I have a disease. I have an addiction to stacking these high premiums in the multiples. The boxes and cases do take up so much room and they are all just laying out in the open .

[@jdoggwhitetrash]

Amazing collectable pieces. I have a few collectable pieces myself. When it comes to checking E-bay for sold comps, not for me. I don't deal with E-bay. When it comes to purchasing something for myself, I use Red Book for raw coins. When it comes to slabbed, it has to be PCGS or NGC. I scan them or check their websites for mintage and prices if they have a price. Thanks for sharing video.

[@DJbabynoneck]

My lcs would pay the same as generic bullion for most of these. He sees silver as silver. Makes for some good deals now and then.

[@Kevin-ii7gy]

Exactly . Gotta take this stuff to eBay and put in some work and give up some %

[@THEDRAGONBOOSTER8]

I collect coins the same . One off's or sets. Very nice . Great video..

[@hongkonglim4582]

Silver use in medical and industrial line, if silver price boom up till usd 50, very big effect to global economy

[@KevinKidwell-v3c]

I like the colorized Maple Leaf.

[@KevinKidwell-v3c]

​@@ShadyD365 it does look like Satan. I didn't see that the first time. I liked the gold leaf though.

[@lindathomas2350]

Me too! That color ice can we believe was gorgeous!

[@mattmatt6572]

Justin Trudeau?

[@douglaswilliams6834]

Nice pieces, SS. I also have quite a few semi numismatic and hand poured pieces. I consider them art that happens to be made out of silver. Buy what you like and enjoy it.

[@ssmartin67]

Hey you like what you like. I’m a coin collector that also stacks silver and gold. A lot of the items I have are more valuable to me than the market value. That’s what makes it fun!

[@joemitchell2323]

I brought a 2022 10oz Beskar Bar from NIUE to my LCS to see what I could get and he was like, “I don’t mess with anything like that, I would give you the silver content” 🤦

[@ZACMAKLEA]

Great realistic content! God Bless!

[@bigdogs-29]

I just don’t understand why silver pours and silver bullion are mainly skeletons, pirates, apocalypse, death, destruction, dark matter… maybe you can do a post on why this is. It’s like cilantro, either you like it or not. Lol. But as far as the other pieces, I took snapshot of them. Guess who’s gonna look to add to his stack? Thanks, the eye candy is always great. StackOn

[@KurtOnoIR]

I remember thinking that too. What I realized tho was that there's a ton of other stuff out there, just I had started buying the skull and pirate stuff, then that's like 90% of what the algorithms would show me. I notice now that if I search for dinosaurs I'll get a whole bunch of prehistoric themed stuff that I had never seen before, same if I look for religious themed rounds, it kinda depends on what you look at and purchase is what gets shown to you I think. I got stuck in a superhero loop one time. I never even bought any, just like what is all this stuff? If you get stuck in the skull/skeleton loop you would think silver was evil! Search for Jesus rounds! Lol!

[@madcatattack1]

excellent collection! i love the looks of those colored ones a lot

[@jp27whodey31]

That colorized dragon is awesome. What a collection tho man. Yes I'd fricken love to see more

[@Blue_Siberian]

you are being kind to our type have a sickness is accurate😂

[@autosandluxury1025]

So this is what you can learn from this video. Never go to a coin shop to sell your semi-numismatic you are not going to hace the return of investment you want. so better to sell in ebay or facebook groups or video lives.

[@yotefan8286]

Very cool. Please do this again.

[@DL_STACKER]

Nice video. Nice stuff. i appreciate you showing your collection .Personally, i never got into colored stuff. It reminds me of Pogs .but i do like collectibles, though

[@KurtOnoIR]

Ive bought with my heart a few times. Not very often but I have paid way over spot for certain vintage pieces that I just had to have. Like it the piece was calling out to me lol.

[@smartin498]

I am a stacker….with that said , I like your pieces but they all cost too much for me. “ always just worth what someone will pay”

[@michaelmohrle1773]

Nice Dragon, the BUs are selling for around $500-800 for the 10 ouncers. I hope the Tudors will gain in value. I hope RM will release the Panther and Dragon in the 10oz BU.

[@davidbalfe1967]

Please do show the rest of your collection

[@dustinweaver3032]

I appreciate the workmanship and Rarity of some of the coins and pieces that you showed but for me personally I'm still in the phase of stacking as much silver and gold as I can for the least amount of money great video though thanks for the content

[@shawnsmith9512]

Semi- numismatic this is a new phrase for me. It seems like a fancy way to say bullion junk.

[@bobblenuts]

Not what I am really excited about, however I liked video. What I do like about these types of collectibles is I'm starting to buy them as gifts for grand kids. They love Panda's and adding color makes them more exciting to a younger child. 👍

[@mypeeps333]

I think colorizing a coin Destroys them. As a collector I Won’t buy them !

[@RandolphSotomayer]

Interesting stuff seeker thank you

[@daviswall3319]

Love Galaga! Local bar in my hometown has a Galaga machine now. Makes me feel like 12 again. 😎

[@thisismonitor4099]

The problem with something being rare is that it it must be adjusted for the market. If it is a US coin, one where there are only a few thousands can be worth many thousands, but if you buy a limited edition modern proof from say Niue it is hard to pay more than 30% over the silver bullion prices or 10% over gold bullion prices. After all you can basically right now get 19th century double eagles that grade XF-AU certified for around 10% over gold spot....

[@ndbg46881]

I have a couple of the limited edition Martin Short Presents Canada $3 silver coins that are beautiful! Not sure they will ever take off but I think eventually they will.

[@robertstroback3362]

Never been into colorized coins. The only colorized coin in my collection is the colored purple heart from the U.S. mint.

[@deedevries1123]

My coin dealer doesn't care what they are, he says sell them on ebay then.

[@DS-tt9vz]

I'm strictly a stacker, however I do have one coin that I consider somewhat collectable. I purchased an ASE End of WWII V75 from the mint in original box and papers. Advised the wife even though it is only one oz of silver be very careful in selling if I check out and she decides to cash out. I could see someone saying "let me check current silver spot price before I can make you a fair offer".

[@Ashaman556]

About halfway through, I hope you show the black lotus colorized coin. I think they are two once.

[@steventogami898]

At a certain point, these specialty/colorized coins get their added value as ‘art’. I own a few of these, as a cool novelty. In a SHTF barter scenario, would you give a person $100 worth of goods for 1 colorized oz .999 silver coin, or 3 generic rounds?

[@edb3877]

No, I would not. If I accepted that coin at all, it would be just another silver bullion coin after the acetone bath and light rub to removed the paint.

[@AndrewCummings-do2bz]

No it would only be worth it's weight in silver!

[@AndrewCummings-do2bz]

Definitely 3 generic rounds

[@gcbranger1189]

i like rare numismatic vintage coins over that common stuff.

[@mitchellreid4205]

How about the 007 series?

[@garylynch9206]

Not a fan of colourised but the ones you showed looked great.

[@billfraser9731]

Josh makes alot of sense. If me, I wouldnt pay what he is offering

[@DeweyMilton]

This is why you can't sell this stuff to these dealers they don't want to pay anything you definitely have to sell on eBay

[@joewhite4743]

Morning Seeker. I like your channel alot. Thank you. Joe

[@Kevin-ii7gy]

Trends change. That’s why as a stacker with no following to sell to other than a coin shop. I strictly stack eagles , maples and 10oz bars and nothing more . For gold , eagles, buffalos, maples nothing more

[@ulexite-tv]

I can feel your enthusiasm, but personally, i don't get the "evil" and "zombie" and "killer" coins. I like life more than death and would rather have coins with birds, animals, flowers, and leaves -- and not have them colourized. The Dragon coin was super-nice, though -- my complete favourite of the lot.

[@SilverSeeker]

I get it, and I have plenty of those also to be fair. Maybe next time I do a vid like this I'll show those. :)

[@jackbeatty4059]

Not interested in any “semi-numismatic” coins. Semi means they aren’t really numismatic. Sorry. It’s fine if you like this, good for you.

[@Hank.Flamingo]

Thanks for the update.

[@TexCen]

Surprised to see you prefer colorized! Idk why, just am. I guess that's one cool thing about stacking - plenty of styles to match everybody's preference! Very cool Reaper piece (the 1st one). Love that relief on it.

[@SilverSeeker]

I don't prefer all colorized, they have to be nice pieces. The ones that are just adding color to liberty or the eagle of a silver Eagle are bleh. These though I like because of what the colorization is I guess.

[@brandonkessler7540]

Super kool pieces I too buy a few for collecting.

[@bobsacamano7653]

When you said rare coins I was thinking old and rare. You don't even have electrum coins?

[@claytonpaterson4414]

Big creed fan where on earth did you get those coins I love them

[@mysterybuyer3738]

Not a fan of both the coloring and the added packaging. I bought 10 of the I stand with Israel colorized silver eagle series and tried to sell them and couldn't. I remember paying around $500 for 10 of them. So silver @$50 an ounce yay.

[@billstrauss2754]

I personally don’t like altered coins either won’t pay extra for them

[@ptcollura]

I wouldn’t pay but a few dollars over spot for most of that stuff. Not my thing.

[@SilverSeeker]

Thats fair it's not for everyone. It's collectibles to me that are also silver. :)

[@timross6990]

I think you'd get a better idea of this appraiser's skill if you didn't tip him off with eBay auction sale prices. Maybe ask him first what he'd pay, then drop the eBay sales figures.

[@markkatz6170]

I would never buy any colorized coin ever, as well as no King Chucky, skulls or Chinese coins .

[@cerealaugher]

The colorized coins I don't care for, I think I might have 1 out of my 1,600+ ozs. and I bought it because it was lower than melt. The boxes do take up a lot of real estate

[@towboatjeff]

I just bought a Smithsonian panda like that on ebay for $30 with $10 s&h.

[@SilverSeeker]

Nice!

[@PennyPusher]

Sure i'll sub. Love the videos !

[@blake7587]

Hey Silver Seeker do you like those Egyptian Gods 2 oz rounds? I love them!

My favorite rare coin that I find in junk silver often is the 11 D half dollar. Not valuable but rarer than most.

[@OregonSilverStacker]

I have two colorized american silver eagles... One is a gold plated. American silver eagle with a red, white and blue dress and the other one is a nine eleven memorial silver eagle with the twin towers painted on it

[@1011Shke]

Good show, nice pieces ! I "nerd out" on some pieces too, and im 72 years old. I have a number of limited mintage pieces from mints like Perth, Scottsdale, and Germania. As im a "year of rhe dragon" birthdate i have particular "wants" for those items wirh dragons. I definitely understand your fetish...its what i like, its my money, and i certainly dont buy it to make money. Keep it up, would like to see more of your "stash"!

[@cardaveux]

I live in Switzerland and those semi-numismatic coins are very expensive and hard to sell. Personally i don't like this stuff. Rather i have better a nice 3 Mark 1912 Saxony (Sachsen) coin than this fancy stuff.

[@isidroramirez8018]

I think you shoulda had him make offer depending what he thinks [ his knowledge] then you shoulda said what you paid.

[@normangage6953]
