My goodness, Daniel. Every time I have a question about a coin, I pop on one of YOUR videos. Why? Because you tell it like it is even when you know some collectors may not want to hear it. I would much rather learn "the right way" than possibly putting my foot in my mouth. Thanks for doing what you do, you're a blessing to so many. Never mind the nay-sayers !!

When I started collecting again I would look all over the internet for answers as to what a coin was when I found an odd ‘error’. It was exhausting and I usually didn’t find the info I needed. Then I found this channel and all that changed. If I need info on anything I just go back through your videos. Chances are you’ve covered it in a clear easy to understand way. Thanks. Your work has put the fun back into my little hobby.

When you are first starting out, it is difficult to know which coins have been damaged/altered by outside parties, and which are genuine errors and varieties. I was so grateful for these groups when I was first getting my feet wet with this hobby. Of course, there has to be a willingness to listen even if you are being told something you don't want to hear! I have been doing this long enough now to be able to discern the difference the majority of the time. Just makes me sad that there are folks out there in it for a buck and not for the history and beauty these coins represent. Thanks for making this video, Daniel!

I'm also early into coin collecting, but I am realizing I like the oddities as much as regular coins. I have been collecting vintage damaged coins but not newly damaged coins.

I had to leave some of these groups. People want to argue with you. They ask your opinion, and get mad at the truth 😂 Thanks for Sharing my friend

There's many who do and argue with me on it.

Its almost 2021 hope you are still making videos. I'm just getting started in coin collecting & this showed me a lot about what to watch for. Thanks.

I think you are the best person to teach anyone ANYTHING about coins!! I appreciate you very much, thank you !

Love the straight forward no BS approach.

Thanks man! I’m a new collector after retiring from the military. It’s all knowledge. Thank you

You have the most informative videos Daniel...no one else would take their valuable time. And explain at the lengths that you do...great video...

Hi Daniel, thank you for this video. I appreciate the knowledge you impart. Yesterday I got change from a machine and found a pitiful looking quarter. I've never seen so many issues with a quarter. I felt very sad for it. If a quarter could speak it would be screaming in pain. I can barely see it's flattened 1980 date because it's actually now a partial cud. There's a brown spot on it, a jagged crack running across it, and gouges, that's just the face side. I just don't understand this. The eagle side is very weird and ripply and the letters are missing or flat. Why would someone destroy this? Now I'm collecting state quarters and creating a collection for my grandkids. I just feel bad about this quarter. I might send pictures to your website. I inherited an enormous coin collection. Now I'm retired and finally I'm able to enjoy it and learn about all of it thanks to pros like you. Thank you for your help.

I like the fact that you inform and teach people about numismatics. Not just the blah about pm prices.

Hey Daniel, thanks for the video. I'm pretty versed in numismatics after 30 years of collecting/buying/selling, but videos like this need to be made and watched by newer folks!!!

Hi Daniel, I’ve been watching your videos for about a month or 2 now, I’m a quick learner but would still be considered by most in the Numismatic community, A Novice. you’re obviously an expert on the Num. side and just getting started w/ your online presence. I want you to know that I appreciate all the time and effort you’ve invested in your craft but more so developing it in an area where you’re not an expert but u still have the courage to keep going despite all the adverse effects that you’d never expect! U can’t fake the passion u have for coins and educating on them. “U can’t please everyone”, has almost morphed into “u can’t please anyone,?just try to offend as few people as possible” Which is no way to live. Keep doing what you’re doing, I enjoy it!!

This video really cleared up some confusion I had on certain coins. Thank you kindly for all the great info. Because of your enthusiasm and experience on this topic, I now am hooked! Thanks again.

Thanks Dan for all the professional on damaged coins it is such a BIG help eliminating what isn't an error. Thank You

👩🏻And yes, more videos on these damaged coins, please it helps us beginning as a hobby, learn the types of damage coins out there. Hopefully stop people from being lied, deceived and hoodwinked! 🤷🏻‍♀️

My son found a quarter and had us all going. I put it up on Coin Opp's site for Dustin to look at it. He said it was a coin that sat maybe overnight in cola or even longer. I trust and respect his opinion as well as I would yours. Thanks for the video. I really hate it when people intentionally ruin a coin. All the Best ~ Shirl

I just started collecting about 4 years ago so thanks for taking the time to make these videos just to help other people like myself!

One of my favorite coins in my collection is a damaged coin. A Lincoln memorial cent that somehow had about six other pennies pressed into it. You can see all the different dates. It looks really interesting and I have no idea exactly how it was done.

Wow! It's difficult for me to comprehend why someone would do these types of destruction/damage to coins. It is really disturbing to me. Thank you Daniel for taking time to educate me on this very important subject to the hobby. God bless, Louis

Sometimes I appreciate it. When I find copper coins that are badly damaged I save them for electronic projects lol. They make for a great place to ground wires.

Just saw this video and I must say, Daniel you have helped me a ton and I truly appreciate the expertise

Also-some of the damage could be caused by the coin being laid in concrete. Apparently, some people put coins into concrete for some reason when laying sidewalks and patios back around the 1950’s or 1960’s. When we first moved into the house, there were a couple of coins set into the sidewalks around the house. When removed after decades of exposure and wear, they were very damaged.

Hi I'm a new coin collector and I really appreciate the way you put things out there to make people aware. Thank you very much enjoy all your videos.

Thank you for educating me. I’ve been going through lots of coins. It’s been very interesting. Your show has helped me a lot. Thanks again.

Very good ! I've been holding on to so many 'Damaged Coins', not wanting throw away a fortune. My collection thanks you.

Thank you for this video.... I thought I was the only person that got excited about damaged coins... I have 2 binders filled with these type of coins, I also collect them to teach kids at different clubs and have them try to guess how a coin was damaged and whoever guessed the closest gets a 1964 BU Kennedy Half Dollar from me.... however the 1863 Indian head cent made my heart sink.... good job again Daniel

Thank you I've researched so many places online and thanks to this video I have figured out my coin us damaged I thought may be worth something.. very informative and helpful!!!

So glad I found your videos.. you answer so many of my specific questions... seemingly out of love for hobby rather than greed!! Thank you, and wishing you mush success! We will be following during our “coin jar quarantine” and after!! Hooked now! 👍😊

I've been searching a whole bunch of old rolls lately, and I now have almost a full roll of "WTF?" coins. I honestly don't know how anybody can pick out the DDOs that are so subtle, even on a high grade coin under a microscope. When they're old and heavily circulated, I've basically given up, because otherwise I'd just sit and stare at these bloody things for hours (I've yet to see a 1934 that DOESN'T look like it has doubling on the date). But then there are some that are just so bizarre looking that I've scratched my head wondering what could have possibly caused them. A "D" mint mark on the West side of the obverse, strange lettering on the collar above IGWT, all sorts of peaks and valleys on the planchets... I've just started chucking 'em into a pile. Maybe I'll figure them out someday.

g Great info for a rookie (me) coin collector. This video answered some questions for me. Although I do have a really strange coin I would like for someone to look at and tell me if it's damaged or mint error.

Another great video Dan. I love seeing these kinds of topics because it goes over and refreshes the basics as well as some other stuff you migjt not see as often. Id love to see a video on fakes and counterfeits of all different kinds. Ive been collecting them whenever I get the chance just to study for reference but its getting to be more and more of an issue with these online pieces from far off lands getting better and harder to spot. Anyways keep em comin!!!!!

I found a dryer coin and I’ve spent two days trying to figure it out. Once I had an idea what it was I came to you for the definitive answer and here it was. Thank you.

Wow this great to know about damaged coins.Keep up the good work an glad someone cares to take time to teach what's wrong or fake so people don't get ripped off.Lets keep the real coin collecting real,Thank for all your vedio I appreciate honesty!

Hello Daniel, nice crazy video on damage & mint error coins. Keep them comming. Take care.

Still watching and we appreciate you as well.

Daniel, Thank you for this video. I am new to this hobby. and I have a few of the coins you showed here and now my curiosity and questions has been answered.

Professor Daniel, really love your videos. the studies and lessons are absolutely superb. Coins 101. I am learning a lot.Thank you.

Of course it took a couple of years to understand just how manipulating some people are to make a quick buck. I hope this group will heed your candid and informative information in your videos. In a perfect world everyone would be honest : but, this is the real world and it is far from perfect. Thank you for being a helping hand for anyone who seeks help: including me when I was starting out.

Ive sure hoped they were errors, i couldnt find them by searching and i am so darn glade you answered this question for me!! You have saved me a bunch of time. Thank you!!

Thank you for this video! I’ve got something interesting, but doubt it’s a mint error now that I’ve watched this. I wish I could share a picture so you could see this strange coin.

Watched your video a couple of times since there was so much to digest. You do a great job and I appreciate your efforts to get all that information out to the coin collecting public. Thanks again.

Thanks Danial I appreciate your information. Still learning at 54 years old. For others I have only gotten interested in learning about coins this in the past year, I have collected odds and ends most of my life. Now I am learning a good portion of what I have found is fake and not worth anything but face value. I still have my treasures. Just have not found anything to make me rich yet. Your a good teacher Danial.

I really do appreciate your every single video that you've ever had and I am so thankful to be enlighten by such awesome lincoln pennies.

Thank you for sharing your cion show finds. Those finds are in the price range of many coin collectors like myself. It's my personal opinion that our country's first coins are some of the most interesting coins ever minted, and when you find those gems. It's just as exciting as finding a silver Reale on the beach. Thank you again.

I'm horrified at the damage you've taught me a lot thank you

Extremely helpful and educational . Using your experience to help other's , very commendable . I have a few older coins , that after watching this presentation I am still unable to determine if these coins are damaged or actual errors . Thank you , I still learned something even though I am still stumped .

Nice collection of damaged / altered coins. I primarily collect genuine error coins but I also like coins like this, I have several of the types you are showing along with a few counterfeit coins. I do exactly what you do with them, I use them as educational and reference coins.

Thank you sooo much for your videos!! There very informative! Just awesome!!

Thanks for another great video Daniel, I really did enjoy every bit of it I could not fault it in any way!!! Until the next one, Take care.

I had a few quarters that got loose in the washing machine and wound up between the bottom of the tub and sides. When the machine went into it's spin cycle it rolled down the edges of the quarters quite a bit and left a somewhat sharp edge. It looked like it could have been a mint error, but I knew otherwise. I had a heck of a time fishing those quarters out of that washing machine. They spent like any other quarter.

Daniel, The 1863 Indian penny bothers me too. It was such a nice coin. I know of several coins from the mid 1800's and back, that this was done to, especially during the civil war. I know of several that have been found while metal detecting. The soldiers out of need or boredom, would carve out rowels for their their spurs. Thanks for another great video.
