      Yep, he acted like a jerk, trying to play hardball with Rick. Market value is what the market is willing to give you for it, end of story. If you think it's worth more than anyone is willing to pay you for it, then don't sell. This isn't rocket science.

      This is the same guy who tries to sell $50 Morgan dollars for $1000 on eBay after marking it down $600 and calling that 60% off. He calls himself an author because he wrote a pamphlet directing people to his coin store. He gives you a certificate of authenticity with every purchase. He has a huge inventory, but he sells it for 10x what it's worth. What he was asking for here is almost reasonable.

Remember he said ~30 days before his death? That means that they were only made for about a month, as coinage cannot be produced with a dead emperor on it, with few exceptions (this isn’t one).

      @jugjivan 5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      This is extreme wear for even this coin. I found one with the dictator part still fully visible going for 15.5k after a price reduction. And it seems like this coin is pretty readily available as far as collecters coins go in the heavy wear to decent condition range. In fact there was quite a few results for this coin in much better condition in the 30-55k range and some semi decent (which isn't something I would ever use for this particular coin after seeing the online results) coins in the 5-15k range. This coin also is one of the more abundant one's from that time. The one one in near mint condition I could find seems to be one in a Australian museum with very little wear (which is also just limited to the edges mostly along the top of the coin). I can see how this voin didn't go for much.

    I'm kind of amazed that something that old would be valued so low. However, it apparently is more common of a coin than you would think compared to other coins on that era, also the condition is an issue.
    I'd buy the thing for 1500-2000 just because it's so cool

    Let me call someone and I’ll tell him you’re asking $4,400 so he can appraise it lower than that.
    I don’t know why people say exactly the amount they want. I’d ask for 15k so Ricks expert can say 8-10k.

    The coin is not in great shape. It looks quite worn. Look on eBay, 1500 seems quite fair based on its condition. The only ones that go north of 3000 are in good shape

      even if he said it sold at 4000 i doubt rick would go much higher than 2000 for it. Pawn Shops are notorious for low balling you, they are not there to pay you full retail value, in the end if they cant make 50% profit off you they wont buy it.

    • @jugjivan
      @jugjivan 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      He's the expert. And a quick google search proved that he was in fact right. In fact it took me 2 minutes to find a coin with the other half of this strike still fully visible going for 15.5k. There was quite a few results for this particular coin. As far as collector's coins go these seem pretty abundant (which makes sense seeing as how this was one of the more common coins when compared to say the uncommon bronze or hard to find gold coins with ceasers portrait). I found another in slightly better condition than this with some heavy wear (but all the letters still present) going for 3k. 1.5k seems to be the going rate for these coins in similar condition (although this particular one was worse off than the one's I am finding online) although not a lot seem to be selling. Mind you that these aren't exactly the most rare coins out there. The ones that do go for 200k are in fact quite great indeed. In fact there is one in an Australian museum I found that is near mint condition (for a coin this old) with just some slight wear along the edges (but not on the strikes) and I couldn't find any other online results for any of these coins in "great" condition. Just because you have an opinion doesn't make it true. There is a supply and demand curve on every market and the experts that deal with type of stuff daily are going to be pretty accurate with every thing they say.

    • @jugjivan
      @jugjivan 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@MrTerror923 pawn shops don't low ball bevause they need to make at least 50% profit. They low ball because these items don't fill immediately and will sit for a while as the shop owner pays out of pocket. On top of that they need margins for authentication, repacking, storage, upkeep, and auntion. If you really want full value then you'd sell it yourself. People that go to pawn shops go for the convince and to save the hassel which means in turn they have to give something up. With the large numbers this shop deals with per episode especially in the market that they operate in you'd expect these guys to be rich in the tens of millions especially seeing as how they have "50%" margins but when you see that despite being in the game for as long as this family has they have a combined net worth in the 8 million range despite also being TV celebrities you'd quickly realise that these guy's don't make as mucb profit as you think (or should I say assume).

    • @MrTerror923
      @MrTerror923 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      thats the whole point of making 50% profit because things sell slowly especially niche and expensive stuff unless you have a go to buyer.
      Obviously the more expensive the item the lower profit % you would go.
      However buying something at or close to its value that you know is not gonna sell is very very stupid, and bad as you never know if it will go down in value or sell at all.

      There are loads of these on earth. Mostly in used condition. If not then they are special. They find buckets of thousands of them fairly often in the UK simply by metal detecting. They used to chuck them in wells. Hide them in jars. 1/4 of all humans on earth used their coins. NOW this is a extremely notorious coin. Very much so. But have no illusions : I suspect Rome minted a half million of these bad boys even in 30 short days, and shipped them from Jerusalem to London and paid salaries with them. Hence the uproar over the face. Rome was INCREDIBLY rich. It's not even a joke to say it. They were ROLLING in it.

A hoard of ANY Roman coins is an extremely rare find, often valued in the hundreds of thousands and displayed in the most prestigious museums we have.
