I've seen about 20 of these unboxings and what I've noticed is that everyone of them has either been 3 silver eagles combination of proof and ms or 2 eagles and a $5 gold eagle except the 2 channels that I saw heavily promoted them so with the average being about $300 in value so these aren't investments but house wins gambling boxes in my opinion, investment of $600 should get close to that and the average is about half borderline scummy

Wow So TRUE

Found you on T the silver Stacker video ,, we got a couple of Equinox 800 we ENJOY getting out and digging ❤

My box weighed 323.184 grams and I tested it with a Garrett Pro metal detector. One end was 10 points higher than the other. Ended up having 2 silver eagles & 1 $5 gold coin.

Enorabuena, por lo menos tenía una moneda de oro de 5 dólares , se sabe para cuando la segunda serie de Vault Box ? Un saludo desde Málaga 😊😊😊

Thanks for taking one for the team, P.T. Barnum underestimated.

hmm, weird how in the official PWCC unboxing video that they just casually pull out a full ounce gold proof AGE and just keep non-nonchalant talking about the specifications of the coin. Maybe if these boxes were $300 instead of $600 then maybe I would be less mad but this is just obvious bait and switch at this point.

I feel like NGC is cheapening or at least discrediting their brand with this. The concept is fine, but not for an investment. There's already "mystery boxes" on ebay, but no one looked at those as an investment. If we're using a grading service to judge investment grade coins, do we want them also involved in what amounts to be glorified betting?

If you want to feel like a total rip off then open up a $595 box of trading card wax....At least you got some actual value in the box.

For 2400 you could buy a graded gold Buffalo

@The Coin Show Podcast so true thanks for taking the beating for us

I have seen a few people get really lucky best video was a young man unboxing one with his kid and pulling a MS10 2023 1oz gold eagle

Thank you guys am glad I missed out

This was fun! Thanks for taking the shot to do this. However, Mike, an ounce of gold does not weigh more than an ounce of silver. An ounce of gold may be a smaller mass, but it weighs the same. It reminds me of the old Riddle. Which weighs more, a pound of feathers, or a pound of nails? Thanks guys!

BUT a 1oz gold eagle being only 90% gold does weigh more than a 1oz silver eagle because of the 10% copper in the gold coin.

Both are correct.. 1 Oz of gold weighs the same as 1 oz of silver. However, 1 oz gold "Coin" compared to 1 oz Silver "coin", depending on the metal content: 90% or 999 or 9999 fine, or Morgan/Peace dollar .. Yada Yada you get it..

I saw two unboxing where the guys got 3 silver eagles. I am sure there are many out there who rolled craps.

This was great. I saw it posted and couldn't wait to watch it.

Learned you can't check batteries in a metal detector... hitting on a clear tile floor. LOL

You could feasible return the ones you know are all Eagles with enough data (or sell them on eBay). But great video.

The QR code just gets you to the website. You still have to manually enter in the serial number to look up the offer from what I’ve seen.

After watching a few openings where weigh-ins were a part of it . . . . . 324g is 3 Silver Eagles. Now I will watch and see if I am right . . .

Hello I just subbed

NGC just sent me back to PCGS. This short-term profit-taking signals me they must be struggling. Especially with trying to twist the grading scale. Did they just undergo a management change or something? As more video unboxings come out someone will compile enough data to piss a lot of people off. No more greedy NGC - ever. How else are they padding their bottom line I wonder? THX 4 taking the hit for the rest of us, it is what I feared but expected. For those paying up on eBay - really? LOL I am a buyer@ $100

Actually the gold eagle has more than 1 oz total weight. It’s 22k. The silver eagle is pure, thus making the gold eagle 3.1 grams heavier.

Not quite. A gold eagle is 10% heavier than a silver eagle because gold eagles are made of 90% gold and the silver eagles are made of 99.9% silver. The gold eagles actually weigh 1.1 oz but contain 1 oz of pure gold. The rest is 1/10 oz of copper.
