  • I sent a bunch of gold that I own into PCGS for grading to make sure that they were authentic and see if we could get some good grades back, and here are the results! Some ended up coming back with great ones, and others less so - let me know if you would have done this differently in the comments. Gold is always super fun to collect and go after, both from a collectible perspective and a precious metals and gold investing one, and I'm happy that I went through this process and paid about $350 to do so.

    Thanks for the share. It is very educational to guess the grades. The no motto gold is a favorite of mine. There is some great value to be had. Happy collecting!

    Some great coins, Christian! Sorry you got burned on that quarter eagle. I can't imagine why they couldn't grade the large cent, either. The date is pretty clear.

    @silvadelshaladin 2 года назад +2

    I'd send the "1804" to anacs. They are better at identifying things like that, are cheap, and the difference in return you would get between that and pcgs should be minimal in that grade.

    Sorry to hear about the counterfeit gold. You should have it tested as it may still be gold. Here’s hoping. But great overall results. Thanks for sharing.

    @silverstackerintraining148 2 года назад +3

    Great video! As for the rejected gold coins, was the gold verifiable but not the dies and date?

    • @TreasureTownCoins
      @TreasureTownCoins  2 года назад +2

      I believe that the False Dies means that it was a struck counterfeit (probably higher quality, and not a cast coin), though almost all of the gold in counterfeits is at least real gold, but often lower purity. Thanks for the question & support!

    It's really easy to get burned by those counterfeit incuse gold coins. They're a lot easier to pass off than a normal strike would be. I see counterfeits of those more often than any other series by a mile.

  • @briannasanford8106

    Beautiful coins! I'm actually looking to get some coins graded. So I will most definitely be checking out your tagged links in your description. You seem to be pretty knowledgeable about coins. What do you know about possibly owning a ungraded $20, 1933 double eagle golden coin? What would someone do with it to recieve the largest payout when selling it?

    • @TreasureTownCoins
      @TreasureTownCoins  2 года назад

      Whoa! It's likely fake, but feel free to send an email to treasuretownyt@gmail.com.

  • @robertfrye5161
    @robertfrye5161 Год назад

    I took one look at the 1910 and knew it was wrong. My mentor in coins made me study all the conterfeit books and his box of mistakes. The gold was graded properly. I do not do much gold anymore. I did run into a guy I made a trade with in 1990. I traded a 1916 quarter in NGC 63 and he had an 1890 CC $20 in MS60 which at that time was one of the few uncs graded. Coin had booming luster but was baggy to say the least. Before I made the deal called my mentor, he made me an offer. We did the deal, some cash was involved and I sold it that night. The guy that bought the 1916 got it regraded and made a nice profit as well

    @jonathandiamond6801 Год назад +1

    Keeping your coins in a bank vault ISN'T as safe as you think. People have lost MILLIONS from banks changing hands. One guy lost his 10 million dollar ROLEX collection. They don't insure or even assure you of your valuables safety. You are better off buying a UL rated safe for a few thousand dollars and hiding it in your house somewhere. ISM safes are the way to go.

    Congrats on 100k subscribers. I’m a coin dealer looking to start my on RUclips channel in Augest hope I can get to 100 k subscribers. The quarter gold eagle scan it. If it comes back 14k it’s fake. If not send it to ngc just in case. I had to coins from pcgs come back counterfeit then ngc graded them both gold coins as well.

    bummer on the counterfeit indian. this should be a lesson to everyone if you are not a good grader stay away from raw coins especially gold. what I am baffled about is you admittedly said you don't do well in grading gold, yet you buy raw gold coins. strange.

    • @TreasureTownCoins
      @TreasureTownCoins  2 года назад +1

      I guess - but the overall results were positive. A good lesson in terms of not buying counterfeits in the future, and also that it's better to buy a lot and lose on some than not at all.
