Obviously a breathtaking set of coins but what struck me was your outstanding commentary.

Incredibly beautiful coins. Glad you explained the lines on the 1796 50C. A lot of collectors would not have recognized those lines as adjustment lines for the weight of the coin. Thanks Ben.

That proof $20 Liberty is so beautiful. It's still my favorite U.S. coin. It's one thing to see images of the coins but to see them in motion like this is a rare treat. Thank you both for sharing these!

Hi Julian! Agreed. BTW... Nice channel icon! 😎

Very nice! I miss Larry showing his US type coins. Was a big inspiration for me to attempt a 20th and 19th century proof type set. Anyhow, amazing coins Ben, none of which are close to obtainable in the middle to advanced numismatist. These coins are all wealthy only items. However, I’m not hating on that, I commend those who can afford it and appreciate seeing videos like that for those who can’t! Have a Happy 4th gents!

The 1848 Cal. Quarter Eagle is technically the first U.S. Commemorative Coin ever produced. What an amazing piece (looking for a spare $500,000 to toss at it).

So it's a mint produced coin? I thought the cal fractionals were privately done.

These are beautiful Ben.

That 1848 CAL $2.5 is pretty amazing, wow!

Cool coins!

I'm 65 and been a coin collector 54 years . My 2 best coins are a 1820 dime VF35 and a 1834 VF25 that I won in a high school poker game in the late 70s . My parents had their honeymoon in Reno in 1948 and purchased the CC Morgan silver dollar set . Now the story goes my mother sold the set to her workmate in the sugar company office , around 1960 for face value . I was 2 years old lol . When mom would take me to coin shops in the 70s , she told the owners her story . Not as glorious as items in this video but are tops on my chart

Larry is one of the best! AMAZING coins!

Wonderful!!.. THANK YOU!

Odd on the 1792 Half Dime the "F" is different as to the Obv. and Rev. Love it.

I really enjoyed the video, The coin I would pick is the 1792 Half Disme

Fantastic. Thanks for showing these early American coins in amazing condition.

Wow. Amazing stuff

That Copper Morgan 🤩

That 1848 “CAL” $2.5 is awesome!

Incredible! The half dime is my favorite! And the copper pattern. And the 68⭐️.

WOW !!! Ben, kinda like the day I brought in some Morgans and a 1792 Cropped Bust , etc... how stoked, & excited I was holding your coins ($5K - $10K) that you actually retrieved from your safe to show me the difference between the reeded edges. Also, you do realize that you're holding like $6 - $8 million dollars in just a few of those wonderful treasures. A BIG MAHALO to Stacks & Bowers, and especially the Larry dude 🇺🇸🪙🤙🌵🏄🦘🎨

Holy smokes!

Nice GOOD Job 😊😊😊

Thanks. The .50 cent mini Morgan pattern coin, and the matte finish $20 gold were probably my favorites, but all very interesting and of course it would be amazing to own any of those unique coins.

Awesome!

amazing. things you never get to see. i love it

Be, another excellent video.

Amazing coins lofty goals

Greatly enjoyed this video. Several years ago a friend of mine's friend gave me the opportunity to handle such coins.. Like the 1792 dime and half dime; 1794 Dollar and a 1/2 dollar, among others. It was one of the coin high points of my life, As this may have been for you.

What a DREAM Ben!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! And thank you Larry Stendebach!!!

Epics!

You had the perfect word to describe these coins....Speechless! Just absolutely beautiful coins!

Those coins are beautiful, but I prefer circulated business strikes. To me it adds character to know the coin was actually used many years ago.

Great

Thanks Larry, for letting our man Ben have a look at these absolutely stunning coins, and to Ben as well for showing them to us. Just marvelous coins. Wow!!

Unbelievable!! Have to go get a martini after seeing these!!

The stuff of dreams for sure. Thank you so much!

This is amazing

That morgan pattern coin is cool. I like the reverse more than the obverse. And a half dollar morgan that's fun. All these coins are incredible! Thanks for sharing these with us. Super nice fellow.

Great coins, thanks for all the info with them.

That half disme isss ooooofffffff

Thanks for the video!

Out of my league but impressed! 😊

Ben thanks sooo very much for this amazing fun and exciting video. I really really enjoyed it.! Sincerely yours Bert.

Super well done as usual Ben. I like how you kept the views and the background very objective with a subject that's easy to become very subjective. At the end of the day, market forces are what they are. While most of us have our personal views, none of us are larger than the market and the view and opinion it beholds. The market always has the last word. I think this piece did a great job of respectfully reminding people that there's forces out there larger than any of us. Blake (SCMG).

Ben, it's hard to put into words how amazing all of these coins are, I do love those 2 x pattern Morgans, one in copper which I have never seen before and the reverse of it is phenomenal. Keep up the great work, both of these recent videos on coins we never get to see were just great. Cheers

Beautiful pieces of history. Thanks for showing them to appreciate.

Wow Ben cool as cucumber handling those coins while I'm over here on the verge of cardiac arrest seeing some of those coins... wow amazing content what treat that was watching this video very impressed

This video is of the sweetest I've ever seen, and live !!!

Wowzers!

Amazing coins, thank you for sharing

PS...Imagine being able to hold that history!!

Hi Ben. That 1792 Half Dime looks like it was lacquered at one time. Lacquer was used to protect the coin in the past. The three early 1800s Half Eagles are very cool. The 1830 in 66 is amazing. The 5D/o is neat. I like the 1796 half-dollar. PCGS lists the price at $275,000. 👀BOING! The 1900 Double Eagle with a cameo finish is beautiful. The 1908 St. Gaudens Double Eagle with a matte finish is amazing. It is my fav coin of all the coins you showed. I wouldn't pay any more than face for that gold bar. The 1877 Morgan Half-Dollar pattern is very cool. As you said about the Double Eagle St., the copper Morgan looks like a modern bullion round. I like the toning on the copper. The silver pattern is cool. The 1848 "Cal" Quarter Eagle is sweet. Some say that it is the first US commemorative. It looks to have a slight cameo. Nice! 68* is crazy. The Matte St. would be my single coin pick. Thanks for showing those great coins.

I don't think a lacquered coin would get a straight grade.

This was a true treat to see and watch. Thank you so much !

Awesome vid and coins! But that 68* Cal gold piece has a couple pretty obvious pin-like scratches running horizontal across the cheek….the lofty 68 therefore seems way out of bounds. Wow that ingot is outrageously cool.

@@okgroomer1966 Ben was talking about the extensive die polish lines in the fields NOT the couple of pin-like scratches running parallel on the cheek … the die polish is a normal part of the die prep … but the cheek scratches qualify as marks that should limit the grade.

awesome!

well these are the coins that are out of reach ( for me ) but its so incredible to see they exist, I remember day dreaming years ago about finding a mint roll of 1893 s morgans lol ahhh the good ole' days.

Ben, "If you could have just one coin..." Of course he picks two.

😍

Insane!

Amazing specimens indeed! Thanks for sharing. 🙂👍

Greetings Ben and Larry - All of these coins are the UULTIMATE - CAT'S MEOW !!!!!!!! While I was watching this I kept thinking - Ben be careful you are going to scratch the slabs holding them together - LOL - This is why I love the Slab Lab type videos. Choosing one coin from this group would be difficult - So Ben aren't you going to buy just one of them? Best wishes and thanks Larry - an exciting 2 minutes

Back about 1961,I found a 1797 $1,in a roll of bank wrapped $1's. Being only 12, I almost peed, my pants. Fine with a small scratch on cheek. Rest of roll just common dates. I often wonder how high grade,antebellum coins,survived in such nice condition. The oldest ms coin in my collection,is a ms63,large 1c. Not my most valuable coin but amazing how lovely it still is.
