Ben says: "Little known secret - I used to collect Roosevelt dimes." Wow you scored a 67! That 1859 Indian was a beauty. That 2008 platinum with the blind justice on the reverse could be sleeper as the idea dies in real time before our eyes.
Ben, the SP is a designation for a "specimen" example of a coin not for special. A lot of coins I've seen graded with the SP are burnished coins etc. I've seen it on 5oz ATB quarters to distinguish between the bullion and the collector version.
Hey Ben - another great showing - I am in love with that 1859 Indian - which I can't have - Kind of being in love with Jennifer Aniston - lol - The 1949 - S is stunning no matter what the grader says!!! I like that 1928d SLQ - BTW - you got to work on the Don McLean imitation - Best wishes
That 1909 really is handsome, right? Can you imagine being alive back then (and having enough money, obviously), and you just walk up to the Mint cashier and are like, "Gimme a nice looking half-eagle, please."
With CACG forcing the PCGS and ANACS to grade more conservatively. Do you think that your eye may be currently trained to how they used to grade and not how they are grading? This may explain why you are not getting the bumps in grade you used to get.
A really lovely 1859 RPD [FS-301, Snow-1] Indian Head Cent, Ben. Yes, indeed, let’s see if you can get an Eagle Eye Photo Seal and a CAC sticker on it ? And if neither will give it their approval, simply put Old Pueblo Coin’s yellow and black sticker on it.🤓 If it triple stickers and you auction it through Great Collections, might I suggest a reserve of $4,750 in order that you won’t get hosed again, because that certainly wouldn’t be fun. 😲😳😬 🤣😂🤣 ⚾️⚾️⚾️
Until AI grading starts, it's pointless to submit coins for high grades. It's either a randomizer coin flip done, or just preference for their friends. AI can count the exact number and area size of hits to produce a fair true grade.
Awesome Ben! I like the 2¹/² and 5 dollar Indians, but those incused coins are extremely hard for me to guestimate a grade on. Morgan dollars are easy with practice. Not those Indians!
Great key date Roosevelt, such an underrated series, thank you for sharing.
Your one-liners fit my humor. Standing on a pile of my crack outs, lol😂
Thankyou for showing the variety of coins, especially the Lincolns.
I thought I was just going to watch a little bit, but somehow I watched the whole thing. It drew me in, good video.

Man, you've got a great channel. Top quality coins, info, & narration. Keep on... Cheers.
Ben really does produce the best coin collecting content on YT - huzzah!
I think, if it were me, I would let my Engineer pick lots more coins. Outstanding Video once again Sir.
Some very pretty coins. That 59 Indian is superb as is the 49 S Rosie.
Best chanel on youtube I soak the knowledge up like a pile of sponges 😂

"she's standing on a pile of crack-out cases" - lol. Touche !
Great video please keep up your humor!🔎.
way cool beautiful coins
The IHC left me Centsless!
God Bless the Old Pueblo
“Al-GORE-ithm” guffawed a bit
You put a lot of gore in that one
Your one-liners are increasing the value of your coins!

Was wondering if anyone else picked up on that, and the Alfred E Neumann one.
That Roosevelt Dime is superb.
Hi Ben. I love the toning on the 1909 $5 Indian. I like the SP designation for burnished coins. I love the 1867 Mo Max. Nice color. *-->* 🦉 *->* 🔔🔨

Goodluck with a 1921 Bu Set!
Nice Maximillian. If I recall correctly, they’re kind of hard to come by. Especially in uncirc or uncleaned.
2008 platinum has gorgeous details!
Rattler Crack outs are really painful, I get it but don't like it, but it's what it is...
Ben, stay awesome!
As someone with a large collection of rattlers I'm hopeful it will make my collection more valuable

Keep 'em comin' ben!
Hey Ben! That's not the sample slab in the auction, what are your plans for that one?
That one is mine.
I should have gone through them better. Several coins had toning- I did get one with toning but not the best
I did all the youtubey things. I hope when they look on the google or the RUclips you show up 🤜

That 1928 looks like an ms62. Doesn't even have a FH.
I changed an A- to an A+ on my report card in 3rd grade using a similar tactic. It worked about as well 😅
That's great adding the +.
Can you start grading my coins🎉
That 1859 IHC is absolutely amazing.
2:29 I'd call that a win, considering it's a newer ANACS getting the same grade from PCGS. Another day, it's a downgrade to MS63
Your in depth views and assessments of coins is starting to rub off on me a little LOL !

Ben you should do a submission to Rick snow.
I don’t recall have you ever done that before or had Rick on the channel before?
That 1909 should be a 65 really
