George the 6th is probably my favorite foreign coin to find, other than Balboas or Bermudas/Bahamas! Love the design! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers to you!

I haven't seen a red core vault find yet as well. I actually like the coins I got too! I have to admit I did try to sell them last week at my local coin show, but there wasn't much interest, especially with the price I was asking. I'm going to keep them for now. Thanks for the comment! Cheers!

I appreciate the comment! Once in awhile I say something that's "funny". Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!

I think I covet that more than just getting something in the teens w/out a mintmark. You know almost immediately that it's a special find, because they don't happen too often. A '58-D...Yeah, that happens a lot! Thanks Southern Metal for the response! Cheers!

Never thought about that, but you could be dead on with that. Thanks for the analysis! Cheers!

Robin wasn't thrilled either! Me...These are what a lot of hunts happen to be. "Decent...Just nothing too exciting." The 1937-S was definitely the highlight! Thanks for watching/enduring the vid! Cheers!

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to keep them for now. That's a cool pick up you got! I appreciate the response! Salud!

Never even thought about that. Very good point, sir! I actually tried selling it at a coin expo last Thursday, but nobody was interested at the price I was asking. Keeping them for now. Getting attached to them, frankly. Thanks for the thinking...It's appreciated!

Dude! I've never even seen that Elgin half dollar before...Very very Cool! A Capped Bust is always a nice get! I'm jealous! Cheers to you!

Thanks...I like to put a bit of comic relief in my shorter vids, because my longer vids are way too effing long and devoid of any comedy! Thanks for the notice! Cheers!

AND a video made by a character! That's some Alanis Morrisette, "Flies in the chardonnay", kind of "irony"! Thanks for the response! Cheers!

I definitely did not expect the older buffalo nickels coming out of those two boxes, especially since a majority of the nickels were from the teens to present day. I feel very lucky to have gotten one buffalo nickel, let alone four of them! Thanks for the response!

Easily, the most I've ever found in a hunt! Very, very lucky! Thanks for the comment! Cheers!

Thanks! I believe I've decided to keep them for now. I appreciate the response!

OMG Jean, THAT was my overall fear. I'm so glad that didn't happen! Thanks for the comment! 😆

I'm hoping it continues, that's for sure! Love to see some key dates start to come in for Jeffersons as well. I appreciate the response! Cheers!

I get that, Link! I actually like the coins I got! I've over spend in auctions a lot. This time it's just a bit more than I like, but I understood that coming into it. I appreciate the response! Cheers!

@holasoyalejandro9822 Thanks for the question! I'm not one to give a lot of advice on coins, but I'll throw some numbers at you and you can decide. 9.5 for a red IHC basically equates to an MS65 for PCGS (While NGC is a good grading company, PCGS is still the big kahuna of grading companies). They list it at $700, but that's just a guide. If you go to their latest auction prices for that coin, most of them average at about $550, but there are some below $500 and one went for $767! Looking at the greysheet for coins they list it at $490. NGC is going to lowball you on the price...not by a whole lot, but they are! That being said, You may get more going the EBAY route, but you may not. Also, EBay takes a cut of that, so you definitely need to sell it for a bit more to equal the NGC offer. Also, if you do go the EBay route, make sure to let the buyers know that it's a Vault Box coin and try to include the boxing with it. You might get a little uptick on the price with that info. Good luck!!!

@holasoyalejandro9822 Here's the price guide to PCGS: www.pcgs.com/prices

Take the money and run!!!!!

@@royrauch9775 I was thinking that too, but I wanted to give him options.

You got that right, SM! All four I found in this hunt had readable dates...Sweet!

I appreciate the response! I had a ball with it, even though no red core showed up. They're interesting coins to me no matter what. Cheers!

You got that right! You know, the hot water worked decently enough. As much as I like nic-a-dating buffs, it's pretty nice to have a date with the coin! Thanks for the response, Indigone!

LMAO! That was hilarious, but I can't even imagine getting "2" in one roll?! Fantastic! I appreciate the response! Cheers!

Thanks Vincent! I appreciate your response!

I thought so on the 1948 mintage...I found a 1947 Canadian nickel that had the same designation. Thanks a bunch for you comment! Cheers!

I appreciate the confirmation...I thought so too, but the wear on it made it unclear to me. Thanks for the response!

I got the mat from: robfindstreasure.com/ It's in the shop section. It DOES have the KEY dates and errors/varieties to look for, but not all of them. This site has a ton of coin error/variety info to look for on coins: www.varietyvista.com/ Thanks for the question! Cheers!

@@silverchupacabra73 Hey thanks man!

I can not gripe about those boxes, even though I might from time to time. Big time fun with the Buffalos and the proof coins! I appreciate the response! Cheers!

Thanks Bill! I appreciate the comment!

I'm pretty stoked about that JackalopeHerdmaster! You seem to have a lot of experience in mint errors and such! I appreciate your knowledge and know how! Salud!

@silverchupacabra73 Errors and varieties have been an interest for me since I started collecting over 35 years ago. I wouldn't call myself an expert but I do have a reasonable amount of knowledge with them.

@@JackalopeHerdmaster I've been collecting coins most of my life, but didn't really get back into it until I retired 2 years ago. I'm pretty weak sauce when it comes to errors and variety, especially when it comes to DDO's and DDR's (machine vs. the real doubling), but I'm learning. I appreciate the education from you!

Come on! It's purty! lmao 🤣

Haha...For a minute there I wasn't quite sure what you were talking about. Nice little error in the making of the collection book! I wonder what that book would sell for with that kind of error?! 🤣🤣🤣

@@silverchupacabra73 Yeah that stood out very well.I don't know if there is a market for error albums,lol.

Excellent question! I have a pretty extensive coin collection, but one thing I do not collect are proof coins, so my knowledge is somewhat limited. What I do know is that proof coins are specially treated coins minted and sold for public consumption. The minters(?) polish the dies unlike in regular strikes to a high finish so that's how they get that mirror like finish for the backgrounds. They also strike the blank planchets at least a couple times so that everything on the coin itself is clear and concise. San Francisco is the main proof maker nowadays, but other mints have done it way in the past. Proofs also have a limited mint production as well. If any of this info is not quite correct, hopefully somebody will correct me on it. Cheers!

Great question...The one I show in the vid. isn't worth much more than face value at best. If it was graded at an MS70 it tops off at around $30. Once it's in circulation, forget about it. There are proofs that could offer some decent value to you, but that's a rare commodity. While it's not worth much, I like the coin for it's aesthetic quality more than anything else. I appreciate the question! Cheers!

Agreed! I haven't found too many proofs of any kind of coin in boxes and this one is easily in the best condition! Thanks for the response! Salud!

Best looking proof coin I've seen in a box hunt! Thanks for the comment! Salud!

Thanks Lori! It's been since Nov. of last year since my last buffalo nickel find in a box hunt. I'm pretty stoked about it! Cheers!

That's great.

Oh, that was a major fun time! Plus I got to practice looking for DDO's on Kennedy halves! Love that British Columbia commemorative! Cheers!

Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!

Yes I did! I check them off camera. Unfortunately, a no go! Thanks for the response! Cheers!
