    Also...never talk about coin collecting until AT LEAST the third date 😉

      😂😂😂 Yeah, it’s about that timeframe when you start considering whether he or she is a good fit with your collection goals. 😂
      I like the way you think.

    Those were some of the rarest and most expensive coins that I have ever seen. Thanks for giving us paupers a look at them.

    The 1793 chain cents were only struck for 2 weeks,and ran out of planchets.People didn't like the design.They were engraved by Chief Coiner Henry Voight,who wasn't really an engraver.He was a clock maker,built steam engines,and ran wire mill in Reading,PA.He was also close friends with Thomas Jefferson and worked on some of his clocks.Jack Black is a cool dude,huge DIO fan.On the Dio tribute album,This is Your Life,he sang The Last in Line,as Tenacious D.🤘🤘...I like when you say,Murica🇺🇸

  • @alberthanson1971
    @alberthanson1971 Před 5 měsíci

    I can appreciate the beauty and the rarity of these coins. These coins are well beyond my pocketbook and I could never hope to own one or more of them unless I won the lottery.

  • @petesquarterlifecrisis887

    Beautiful coins.

  • @jayburns7962
    @jayburns7962 Před 5 měsíci +1

    Ben, there are 15 chains in the 1793 chain cent which represent the number of states we had at that time. Great pickups! Coins to drool over.

  • @williamguirl7735
    @williamguirl7735 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Gallery Mint Museum made copies of the chain cents the 1795 Half Dime, and the complete 1796 set from half cent thru $10 Gold!

    You're speaking to me... These classics are markers of a special time in US history. Always great to see these motifs.

    Sent me down a whole side adventure trying to learn about Jack Black's collection. Amazing coins, thanks!

  • @tompekarna
    @tompekarna Před 5 měsíci +3

    Adding a comment on the 1/2 dime.
    Each one of these coins were weighed and adjusted if heavy, file marks in two directions indicate the first filling was insufficient and it was redone.There were few of this denomination known until a hoard was discovered in a safety deposit box in the 1880's, this is like one of those,

  • @user-oh2hs6jh5x
    @user-oh2hs6jh5x Před 5 měsíci +6

    I get 15 when I count the links. Maybe Oscar Meyer designed the coin?

  • @davidvandebrake8454
    @davidvandebrake8454 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Wow Ben. This is where I wish I had 100k to buy all of those coins . Gotta love early American coins theres truly nothing like them just beautiful designs on them.

  • @michaelgoodspeed846
    @michaelgoodspeed846 Před 5 měsíci +4

    Hey Ben - I didn't hear you say CAT'S MEOW - so I am going to say it twice - These coins are the CAT'S MEOW!!!!! A fantastic display of American Coinage in truly beautiful condition - yep I wouldn't throw any of those of of bed!!!!! You got a bonus on the gold coin with the cuds - more gold weight in that one. I really can't choose what I consider the coolest or favorite coin - it's like someone asks a parent - which of your children do you like best? Anyway, thanks for showing us these coins and happy for you obtaining them. Did you get these locally? - just curious - whomever sold these to you must have had a hard time parting with them. Best Wishes

    @TheQuickSilver101 Před 5 měsíci +3

    I remember drooling over a pair of 1795 flowing hair coins. One was a dollar the other was a half dime. They were beautiful and to this day I've never seen a 1795 dollar with a nicer overall look to it. They both graded high AU and he paid $5,000 for both. That was in about 1997 or 98. Thanks for sharing those, Ben!

    Tremendous coins Ben. I love 18th Century US coins.

  • @jeffw1267
    @jeffw1267 Před 5 měsíci +2

    Me, I always wanted a Gobrecht dollar. I could afford one if I really wanted it, but the problem with a coin that expensive is that you have to sell it as one unit. $100-$500 coins are a lot more flexible to buy and sell.

  • @dr.osborne7510
    @dr.osborne7510 Před 5 měsíci +1

    That 1795 half dollar displays one of the best examples of a double date I've ever seen. Just a fun coin to own! I bought a cleaned one a few years ago for significantly less, but it's cleaned. That one is a beauty! The 1796 dime is gorgeous, with lots of detail on the reverse. That small eagle is my favorite, but often comes weak. The chain cent appears to have some rim dings, but PCGS didn't think so. If those aren't rim dings, how can you tell which ones are? Fantastic coins! Thanks!

  • @timber72
    @timber72 Před 5 měsíci

    Wait...why does the Red Book lump the 1792 Half Disme with the half dimes of 1794-1795? They're nothing alike. The Half Dismes were patterns, and completely different in design. The first "official" US coins made were the 1793 Chain cents.
