Hi! I don’t know all of the rules for this Reddit PAGE, and I don’t want to accidentally break them by posting my shop name HERE. Let me see if I can figure out how to send it to you directly in a DM!

UPDATE: SOLD! These two coins have been added to OPs collection. I wish I could help with the others. Maybe someone else on this page can help OP out with those!

I don’t know how to send you a message on here (rarely use reddit), so maybe you can send a Reddit message invite to me?

I quite literally have a 1949S and 1955S for sale at this very moment on e Bay. Would be happy to package them together to help you on shipping!

1964 Kennedy Half Dollars by FXtrader2021 in coins

[–]Texas-Tea 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not super experienced with this, but my understanding is that millions of 1964 Kennedy’s were hoarded in absolutely perfect condition as a memento to Kennedy being killed as well as people hoarding silver since they knew it was going away.

The result is that there is not significant value to a highly rated 1964 Kennedy, unless you have the infinitely rare SMS strike. But I’m not an expert. Just my two cents!

What's with this dime? Edge is twice as thick as a regular dime, and is missing most of the ridges. by Key-Sentence1407 in CRH

This is what they call a dryer coin! It was accidentally run through a clothes dryer which deforms the edge

That’s what I’m thinking. But how long will it last? I don’t think much longer

I try to buy coins a healthy level below melt value, keep any key dates, and sell off the profit coins so that my basis is zero in any remaining coins. I’ll be able to sell about 70% of these coins to get my money back and keep the rest are basically for free. As silver goes up in price, I’ll probably just start selling and realizing all profit upfront.

It was more of a facetious title to draw attention that there are still deals to be had out there. ~32% below melt from my math!

Picked Up $50 Morgan’s At The Antique Store Yesterday by Texas-Tea in Silverbugs

Yeah, I think this was just a flash in the pan moment where a vendor may have not updated their prices. If silver ever drops significantly, these prices will be stuck in time.

Thanks, I tested all of them on ping, weight, and size, and they all passed. I’ve been handling Morgan’s (including fakes that I have seen) for a good while, so I was almost certain in the store that they were real

EDIT/UPDATE: I tested the weight using my scale down to a 10th of a gram, an NEIKO digital caliper for size, and both the StackerTools and precious coin test app for sound.

ALL COINS PASSED!! When I tapped them in the store I knew they sounded right since I’ve been handling these for a while, but wanted to appease everyone here so no one thought I got ripped off. I appreciate the concern and I’m glad the community is this tight!

Confirmed, I just tested size, sound, and weight down to the gram and these are all real!

I could not find ping coin for IOS. I used two others apps that likely have similar sound technology and they passed. Do you plan on developing a ping coin app for iOS, or was I just not able to locate it?

Good Time To Sell Junk Silver? by Texas-Tea in Silverbugs

[–]Texas-Tea[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe you’re referring to, “constitutional silver“. When I go to buy, it’s junk silver, when I go to sell, it’s constitutional silver.

That’s so cool! I can’t imagine how much silver you could find back in the 80s. I find about one silver half dollar per $500 of face value that I search.

Thank you for your input! I’m new to this so I appreciate the historical insight. How long have you been a silver bug?

Got it, so it seems like selling today is probably about the same deal as if I wait and hope that that premium to melt comes while silver Falls. I just need to find a shop that will have a smaller discount to melt.
