I certainly can't speak for everyone but I suspect that there are several reasons most folks want coins that are what some would consider an obvious grade certified. Many folks have some level of difficulty telling if a coin is cleaned or altered in any way (tooled, smoothed or what have you). I've missed some of these myself at times. Also, most folks just can't grade coins themselves anymore. Possibly because the grading is done for them, so this may be a self perpetuating issue. Anyway I loved the interview. Thank you!
I bought many items at Estate Sales....and the 10 French Franc from D-Day 1944......very interesting..... I have a similar 5 French Franc bill....made up to give to Allies Troops landing in France.....Mine has "D-Day +1 w/ 82nd A/B" and the Morse Code dots and dash for V, Victory on it.....
I hope I can visit the USA, they have fascinating coin shops, I don’t know why they are stubborn about buying online when it’s in the places where you learn the most. Thank you for sharing the video
I haven't trusted our government since i was in the 4th grade back in 1968 when i saved my first penny. a 1968 D and to which i still have to this day.. its just like new. I put it in one of them coin holders about 20 years ago, but its my favorite penny i ever have saved. Even better than my twin date 1909's.
What’s the deal with grading coins, sometimes I see what looks like a perfect coin and the people say no it’s not worth sending it in for grading, then I see a bunch of coins that look banged up get like a high ms grade! There must be something I’m missing about the way they grade coins!
I think the 9999 vs 999 is way off. American gold eagles are 22 karat not even close to 999. However they do contain 1 toz of pure gold. Please add a note to the video. I personally do not care about the difference 22 karat vs 9999. What I do care about is the premium over spot, which hurts the eagle. OMG I love the mexico coins and most south american coins. Love the tokens and half dollars.
I understood the 3 nines (1980-1981 and part of 1982) and 4 nines (part of 1982 and newer) reference pertaining to the gold Maples which he pointed out is popular in our area.
You North Dakota boys are pretty cool. Thanks for sharing guys.
Awesome coins! I love his North Dakota accent too! It reminds me of my family’s own Northern Iowa accent. Hehe

Yeah I don't know about his grading cause I am certain of is that coin grading is subjective!!
👍👌
I want the Zippo token. tell me it is available.
You will have to contact Skip on Monday. I’m out of town on vacation.

@@minotcoinbullion got it
No way I am buying an ungraded coin for $4,400.
Personally I think the banner at the bottom the whole time is distracting and unnecessary.
