- When should you grade or not grade your coins? Is there any drawback to cracking a coin out of it's graded holder? Are coin grading agencies a scam?
I stack gold and silver to hedge against our debt-fueled, fiat currency-based economy that I am convinced is in severe trouble. Consider stacking silver and gold yourself to help you build and preserve wealth. And thank you for watching Campbell’s Coins!

This has to be the BEST RUclips channel ever for stacking gold !!! never miss any videos and some times watch more than once !!
You are 100% correct about big spenders who grade tons of coins in bulk getting “special treatment.” That being said, I love my slabs. Despite the premium I’ve paid to have them graded. I like to think of it as, “locking in the value.”
Definitely Triple P. Too many benefits with graded coins but these dang graders are inconsistent and extremely biased. Thanks man
I stay with raw mostly. Graded is just too pricey for my liking. But graded coins do have there purposes. But as for me, grading mass produced bullion coins like the maple leaf, kugerand, ASEs, ect is pretty silly in my opinion
Agree, only grade collectible coins, not bullion. Smart to keep your costs down!
I agree too. The way to own slabbed bullion is to let the other guy have it slabbed, sell it, and you buy it on the secondary market. Case in point: I bought an NGC First Day of Issue, MS 70, $25 American Gold Eagle from my LCS for less than a 5% premium😊
The best advice I take from Mr.Campbell is to buy my coins from a very reputable local coin dealers
Another great video. This channel always has the most thought provoking and practical topics. Thanks for everything you do.
I appreciate that!
Great explanation! Very well thought out. I appreciate the effort that goes into a video like this.
Much appreciated T! Thank you sir!
So much relevant infos & great content as usual!! 🔥
Appreciate it!
Great vid.
I love your passion for pre 1933 coins.
Outstanding video! ⭐Great explanation! ⭐ ❤ Love that CC $5 gold
🙏🙏🙏
Another great video. I think that one of the merits of slabbed certified and graded coins (primarily pre-33), is that they present a reasonable argument that they are part of a collection and so may be that much more likely to avoid confiscation. I think this is something like the strategy that IMT follows.
The elites really believe that ALL property is already theirs by right. Anything that I can do to get better odds of retention, I will at least consider.
That is an argument scammers use. The government is not coming to your house looking for gold. Nor are they confiscating Gold Eagles. After all, gold coins are minted by the US government & sold to consumers. 🇺🇸
Thanks! Could be a possibility, but there are a few arguments against it. In that situation, I think an argument could be made that all coins one collects are "collectible" and the need for pre 33 isn't necessary. The ability to hid any type of gold is also extremely easy. ITM's strategy to sell higher premium coins as "salvation" is certainly genius. That being said, like you, if it works in my favor, all the better. 😎
Solid info on an important topic!
😎
Unbelievable how similar this is to the vintage Star Wars collecting hobby.
Great video. Very informative. 👍
Thanks! 👍
All coins and bars need to check for authenticity. Counterfeit coins and bars, beautifully packaged in plastic boxes, are churned out by the ton.
Great advice! My wife just purchased 2 California gold pieces,I didn’t even know it was a thing. I was thinking of sending both in for grading just to show that they are real. With just a little research, I’ve found that there is a lot of fakes. I was telling her no, don’t buy it and she did it anyway 😅
Yeah, I lot of the extremely rare stuff is faked. I hope the pieces she bought are genuine!
I can't afford graded coins. I mostly focus on Un - Graded Pre - 1933 gold coins. I do have my coins in air tight holders to keep them safe. and I don't ever plan on selling my gold. The history of the coins are more valuable to me then what I could get for the coins should I ever sell them.
My most prized coin is my first and only Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle from 1915.
Is that the one in your profile pic?
@@CampbellsCoins it's the one I have on my profile picture. The date is a little hard to see unless you enhance the picture
Your LIKE button lights up colorful when you said "Like" my video. Was new i see
Oh interesting. Must be a new YT feature.
No one ever mentions cleaning the coin is a substance that you just dip the coin and dab dry, if you did this could you tell? Would it lower the value like polishing the coin where scratches are present?
Many dealers dip coins and bars. It's frowned upon because each dip degrades the coin. A truly unmolested coin is not super common, and if a coin is dipped too much, it will lower it's value because people can see it affecting the coin.
Love that 1863 Indian Head! I buy both raw as well as encapsulated coins.
Thanks! Civil war coins are rare and pretty neat.
@CampbellsCoins Agreed. I'm a collector of Indian Heads and especially a fan of the copper-nickel years. Flying Eagles as well.
@@jasonhartmann3557 nice!
You have to hope you are getting the right coin back and it's real.
I’m just not into the premiums of graded coins. If it was a rare date coin then sure get it graded. But my 1909-d $5 Indians can breath the fresh air
Thanks 😊
Welcome 😊
Thanks!
No problem! Thanks!
I think graded coins are when you approach coins as a collectable numismatic piece, versus something that has its value primarily in the metal its made of (like most modern rounds or coins, though that isn't to say that some coins or rounds might become historic collectibles after some time).
So in that, I'd say if someone is a stacker, they'll have most of their value in sleeves of ungraded coins or rounds, and not in slabs. But they might still own a few slabs for the collectible and numismatic worth they have. Though that is beside the fact that a graded bullion round is beyond ridiculous, because neither the plastic assay nor some piece of cardboard is going to do a better job of verifying its real than a gamma machine.
Beautiful 🤩
Thanks 🤗
Raw doggin-it. 😎
😅
I like raw coins for stacking. Never bought any graded gold. I like to find key date Morgan's in a higher grade that I can still afford. I only buy from people I trust. I like to stick with pcgs.
Solid game plan dude!
I do prefer raw coins unless the price is basically the same as a bu graded coin
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! 😊
But Gold is Gold
Silver is Silver
I personally don't own a lot of graded coins but I to however see their value.
With that said it still drives me crazy when I see a RUclipsr crack out a rare valuable graded coin. 😱😳
I laugh when people do it. Pay a ton of money, then lower the value...smart. 😅
@@CampbellsCoins I know, right 🤨
IMO the graded coin holds more value. Graded by a professional coin company there’s no guess work, you know exactly what the value is.
Do you think a 2023 AGE in a plastic case is worth more than one not encapsulated? If you believe that scam, try selling one & see what you get paid.
@@abrahams.lincoln6749 OK 👍
@@abrahams.lincoln6749 sounds like you got burned.
I believe he is referring to collectible coins, not bullion. Graded bullion is the biggest scams out there, next to the people peddling them.
Very true!
Where’s the videos ?
slabs look so tacky
Graded coins are good for insurance purposes
Keep slabs out of hot cars.
😧 interesting. Thanks for sharing with us.
Why did you critique fear mongerers who say "the end is near" and "gold will replace fiat currency in the next 5 years!" In one video but praise Mike Maloney in another, when he is one of those people? Not hating just asking
I feel 98% of the stacker channels on RUclips are highly uneducated when it comes to the economy. Many copy and paste what a larger channel does and it becomes a parrot repeating another parrot. Even these large channels are quite awful. While Mike Maloney is a fear mongerer (right of you to point out), I do feel he is at least somewhat educated and researches (or did research back in the day) a decent amount of his topic. His earlier videos are actually quite decent. Unfortunately, many channels (including Mike M.) are now just reading wildly dramatic articles someone else wrote, and providing their opinion on it. People see this large followed channel and associate their opinion with fact. It all comes down to, I can like some parts of what someone says without liking everything they do. Same goes for the stacker channels. I might like a certain stacker channel but disagree when they start pumping a certain message. Hope this made sense and helps you understand me a little more.
@@CampbellsCoins Oh okay, also one more question, when the U.S. dollar collapses at some point whether it's soon or far in the future, what's stopping the government from replacing this fiat currency with another one? When William McKinley signed the Gold Standard Act in 1900, he pegged the value of the dollar to an ounce of gold. Why couldn't this happen again?
