Nice! Type coins are my passion. I have all but the 1796 half. My pre-1800 stuff is in pretty gnarly shape with corrosion, scratches and/or holes, but I can't afford anything nicer. For me it's all about the designs and the history. I love holding a coin that could have been handled by our country's founders. If coins could talk, the stories they'd tell!
@xphobe I traded my entire collection (including the 1797 half) for silver when silver was around $10/oz. Since then I've started a new collection - but only graded coins.
@gtfan7676 They have been touched by thousands of people before me. What are MY fingers going to do to the coin that the last 200 years worth of touching hasnt done? Think before you speak.
@geckster109 ok whatever do what you want i was just asking a question there was no reason for you to get all mad. if that was my coin i would not want the oils from my hand on it. because i no its bad for the coin.
geckster109, You have a very nice collection. I enjoy watching your videos. I am a collector myself but specialize more in Toned coins. Keep up the good work buddy.
Also, if the penny doesn't stick, look at the date closely and see if the 3 looks scratched, someone may have made a 1948 penny to look like a 1943 penny.
Glad to see other collections. I've put up my collection in video parts. Mine dosen't have any of the older classic coins like yours, but great work and great coins.
Love your videos...Canadian coin collector here, and found your videos very informative with a nice delivery.Only U.S coins I collect along with perhaps another 200 million people are the state quarters..both P&D varieties, and both varieties of the Presidential Dollars.
Looks like you got yourself alot of primo coins there.
Thanks for the compliment. Some Canadian issues are very beautiful, and are far less expensive than similar U.S. coins. Consider yourself lucky right now to be into Canadian coinage!
Awesome Collection!!!! I'm envious of quite a few of those. Will your next video cover quarters and up?
How long has it taken you to assemble your collection? I'm taking mine slowly and being selective in my aquisitions. It looks like you have the same strategy - of course, I would need a loupe to determine the strike on each of these.
I would mention my favorite, but there are simply too many!
Thanks. Part 2 will encompass nickels and half dimes. If there is time, maybe dimes too. I plan on having 7 or 8 segments total. These videos are meant to introduce people to our great hobby.
the 1st coin u showed i never saw and got me hooked into watching and learning about all these awesome coins!

@geckster109 you should still only handle coins like that wearing cotton gloves, just a good habit and very basic to numistamists
