hi. can i sell pretty much any quarter, nickel, and/or dime as long as it's dated prior to 1964 or are there certain rules or things to look for? thanks

[@frankies2797]

@@DJBeast_official only quarters and dimes dated before 1965 would have silver. Half dollars from 1970 and back would have silver as well.

One thing I don’t like about this vid “this is my type set by far the best type set out of print, but I linked a close second in the description” By far the best but this is a close second That’s the worst I could find it’s not even a big deal like one sentence that says something about how good your vids are

[@Silverpicker]

They're so hard to find! I might order a Whitman gold album instead.

[@rowlandmoffatt7939]

Silverpicker to answer your question about the 3 cent piece. The nickel 3 cent piece was commissioned due to the public hoarding the silver trime and instead using Indian Head cents and 2cent pieces for every day commerce. The reason the mint continued to produce the silver trimes durring this overlap period is because citizens in the western states were opposed to clad coinage, much like they were opposed to paper currencies. Thus the silver trime still had a use out west, a small use, but enough for the government to warrent continued production in small numbers.

[@Silverpicker]

Super interesting. Thanks a lot!

[@adamnagy7599]

The arrows beside the date on the Seated Liberty coinage was to signify an adjusted and reduced silver content.

[@astrofish6163]

Was it going from 999 to 900 or was it some other adjustment?

[@finnclancy767]

Also a reduced weight

I really like it and my coin collection has grown a little more to a whopping 6 silver coins. I also have a ton of misc. copper and world coins. In case you were wondering, my silver coins are the 1853 half dime, a 1964 washington quarter, a 1898 barber quarter, a 1907 O half dollar, a 1964 roosevelt dime, and a 1922 peace dollar!

Hi Silverpicker, very nice set here. Love the chop marked Trade Dollar. I have a beautiful one as well. I’ve tried to get mine translated but no success as of yet, but what I have found out is that the bigger chops are basically from the bankers and assayers of the day. The smaller ones are from the merchants in the markets. Great video, thanks.

Two of the buffaloes are deeply toned (war paint) one is a nickel Indian gem bu. This is paired with 1892 1893 Columbian halves. Left out gold indians as gaudy and expensive

I will be doing an introduction to my type set soon on my channel.

[@smb123211]

I had to start my type set over several decades ago when I discovered coins not slabbed (professionally graded) were practically worthless. I have a "slabbed" type set. I traded bullion and cashed in some bitcoins years ago to finish it. The last one purchased was a 1792 half dime VF. I was so proud but none of my kids showed the slightest interest in the subject! You rarely hear it but coin collecting is one of the most profitable hobbies in existence. My dad saved silver quarters for me and I cashed them in for $1400. He thought I was nuts but I bought a 1909 D VDB for $110, an 1857 Flying Eagle (MS 60) for $180 and a 1793 (AU 50) large cent for $1,050, Best investment I ever made though I would never sell.

Hey silverpicker, when I get my hesitance from my grandfather, I will too start my Canadian type set. From most coins and bills.

Oh!! Ya gotta Seated Liberty with a hole. I steered clear of them, even buy the I could afford, most are unc. Or at least AU. My album doesn't have that last page.

The Peace and Morgan Silver Dollars Were Aproved For Re-Mint In 2021

[@Silverpicker]

Exciting right?!

[@thepowerofcheeze]

I would guess the reason they did not discontinue the silver trime was similar to why they overproduced the Morgans for awhile (though the Morgan's sat in vaults during that span), which would have been lobbying by the silver mining industry. Probably there were silver lobbyists keeping it in production.

[@ChaimMosheZaltsman]

How did I miss the premiere I had it in my schedule! And that’s a beautiful 69 s

[@chrisshuk3365]

Love all the coins

[@juandiegas8211]

The arrows by the date showed that the amount of silver was reduced from that of previous years. Silver prices had exceeded the value of the coins, so they were hoarded and speculators were sending them overseas for meltdown. Since the silver content was less, people tended to use them more in circulation instead of hoarding them, which was the point. The result for us is that not many survived in better conditions eg. XF+. 1853 was just a warm up for 1965 as far as debasement goes. I agree with you on the last page. You could always dump the last page and replace it with the gold page. Now that would be nice.

[@Silverpicker]

Much appreciated Juan!

[@LTC_Tiger]

The arrows were added to note a weight reduction...they reduced the amount of silver in the coins in 1853 because the price of silver had climbed.

[@Silverpicker]

Thanks for the info! Much appreciated!

[@CalderaFinance]

The arrow change i believe had to do with a change in silver weight for composition

[@Silverpicker]

That's absolutely right!

[@Kcconnor]

The 3 cent coin was done so that people could buy postage stamps, which were 3 cents at the time. They switched to the nickel blend because as you pointed out people were hoarding the silver because at that time the silver in the coins was worth more than the coins themselves. I believe that postage had either gone up or down and the government began to put less silver in the coins so it was no longer possible to collect silver coins and ship them overseas to cash in on the silver. The arrows were used to mark the coins and their silver content. They were again used in the 1870s. To again mark the difference in the silver content. The standing liberty quarter was changed because of the puritan mindset. Libertys right breast was exposed and it caused a bit of an uproar.

[@Silverpicker]

Super interesting history! Thanks!

[@livefreedig3047]

[@mpan72]

I just read about that. They lowered the silver content to stop hoarding and melting for profit. They went from "full body coins" to "tokens". This was happening all over the world. The history of coins and currency is extremely interesting.

maybe part of the reason they specified 1/100 on old currency, was because the UK has 240 pence in a pound, as opposed to the US having 100 cents in a dollar, so people that may still be used to british money wouldnt get confused?

These albums must be for the general collector as there are no pockets for things like Chain cents and Phygrian bust coins and the silver coinage of the "Turkey Buzzard" types of 1794 - 97. Is it because those coins are too rare and expensive

That's exactly right. Wouldn't want to put such a valuable coin in an album like that. Prob better to get it slabbed
