"I still have a 2000 dollar offer on the table" from 20 years ago...lolz
I'm the 400th like
So ur supposed to pay me 400$
Isn't that how it works
Just dm me and we'll figure it out
Insta : J6VV
Honestly, that sounds right to me. Pay the man.
Prolly worth more if he did the offer back when it was given due to inflation
Thx TrainingDruid7 I’ll make sure to PayPal u 20% of that 400$
lmao hahaha
Rick: I can offer you $500.
Customer: No, I think I’m going to go rip off my friend I haven’t spoken to in 20 years.
Yeah, pretty much.... but very few ever yell about that.....
@John Nichols or what you can get them to over pay for it, if they are unaware of the real value.... You don't do much buying and selling in the equities markets, I will assume....
Lol
_very funny_
😁😁😭😁
"Let me call my expert who will lower down your expected price "
Envy ML these experts they call in are probably just random guys from neighbour businesses on the same street
Yeah at 1:31 I thought a Rick-looking guy with a wig and fake mustache would come back around the corner.
Cole O'Brien no these experts are paid to unhype the things brought in and lower the price. They are co-operating with the show...
Those guys wouldn't go in the store for free, I'm sure they get a cut from Rick
Paid expert on the payroll
Legend says he is still looking for the $2,000 offer
I hate people that say someone offered them something for a certain price
Word is he's negotiating with the guys grandson up to 775.00 now
Yeah he better get to the guy who offered him 2k before he sees this episode....
@@williamking1905 my thoughts exactly
@K S What they offer will be less than they can sell for, yes. That is how you stay in business. And what THEY can sell it for is it's true value insofar as they are concerned, What some nutjob offered for it 20 years ago is irrelevant and certainly does not reflect its APPRAISED value let alone its TRUE (subjective*) value.
*Subjective based on various intangibles like sentiment, collector's mania on the part of any buyer, whether or not it is just popular at the moment and could be worth nothing in two weeks.
So he's going to call up the guy and say " hey you remember that offer you gave me 20 years ago?"
kyle Gustafson lmao
The offer still stands. 20 years is practically last Tuesday. The guy wouldn't have forgotten that quick.
Yeah if you were going to put 2k on a coin you don't forget that.
Inflation, baby!
Yeah and hes going to also say to him "well i just had the coin evaluated by an expert and he deems it to be worth about 700 or 800 dollars. So I will gladly accept your offer of 2k right now."
Hopefully the guy with the $2000 offer doesn’t watch pawn stars!!!
t mac he watched after he paid 2 grand
If that was me I would not even bother with this show cuz he had that $2000 offer b4 he came on Pawn Stars & don't know why he didn't take it.
Mr. Allen C. Sokolik Jr. He wanted 2200 atleast, tryna get every cent he can
@Bicc OG it doesn't matter if it's fake. It's informative and entertaining.
His friend died 10 years ago
Ricks laugh sounds like a car struggling to start😂😂
Accurate
A cartoon car.
This is the second video I've watched on TH-cam today and the last one was all about Seth Rogans laugh in the comments section. Laughter conspiracy!
You'd think that with all that coin he'd get it tuned up.
Only when he laughs at his own jokes
Unfortunately for him, the guy that offered him $2k for the coin 20 years ago is probably an avid Pawn Stars watcher. Never misses an episode.
episodes get aired like 2 years later xd
Are you that guy?
Pawn shop parking lot there's a good looking guy in that car wrote on the windshield yelling come get me Vegas baby lol
I'll offer 500 but gonna be a H st high quality coin to bad I'm in btown on probation house arrest lol
Honestly, with such a fascinating backstory behind it, youd think they would be worth a lot more than that.
Here's the thing-value is determined by two things: the rarity of the coin in that particular condition, and how many people are collecting that coin. I've got a US coin where the mintage was less than 6000, but because it's not something a lot of people collect, it's only worth about $100.
It's not American and made in England for the US, doesn't appeal much to a lot of collectors.
It was never a certified, ratified coin. It wasn't a 'coin' at all but merely a sample. It wasn't in circulation or made in America so while it's Historical value is quite high its actual value is not as good.
Rick: "How about a bruised avacado and a ride home ? I'm taking a huge risk here."
LMAO 😂 😂
AND THIS WAS MEANT TO BE FUNNY?!! IF SOMEONE LAUGHS PATHETIC "JOKES" LIKE THIS, THEY NEED TO GET LOBOTOMY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE...
Computers I laugh at them so do I need a lobotomy ?
@@hardtarget1517 miserable :D
Lmfao. I almost died laughing at the bruised avocado comment lmfao.
Other guy: "I saw the show, my offer is $501 "
😂😂😂
Nah, it's my offer is $500.01
The Banjo playing at 3:47 along with the look of disappointment on the sellers face. 😂
'I'm going to get a guy I know who knows coins"
"Can you call Rebecca instead?"
I’d book her down for sure.
Rebecca is doing great
The Rebecca thirst in pawn stars comments tells me many of you guys never lived close to water
I walked into a pawn shop with an old antique, was offered 50 bucks, I said can we call an expert, I was then told to leave.
lmao!!
Lmfaooooo
😂😂😂
"It's worth between nothing and god knows how much. ". Why even call an expert Rick, you got this..
"Let me call a friend who knows how to screw you off"
- Rick
“So we made sense”
Not gonna lie, I laughed lol
Same🤣
It was a stupid dad joke that made me laugh as well.
Lets CHANGE the subject
It's not "sense" it's "cents".
“It’s worth a lot more than I thought it was”
*Offers $500*
Rick’s saying he thought it was worth nothing
before Rick left to phone his friend, he was barely able to contain himself. he prolly told the appraiser to quote low...
that non-coin is rare.
@@michaellucero3118 You people are hilarious.
"It's worth somewhere between nothing and infinity." - World class knowledge like that has made this show what it is. Rick's next show is going to find him being a weatherman: "Tomorrow we will get anywhere between 0 inches of snow or 14,000 feet of it" ... Yup it'll probably be between those two values.
"I'm gonna find the guy that offered me $2,000 and rip him off".
I could listen to Dave talk for hours about coins. He is the best of the best.
"Let me call my expert who I secretly told to say its worth $750 because I want it for $500"
That would be fraud and it would end peoples careers if true. Even joking about it is in very poor taste.
Gilhelmi ftgvu
ive seen items where they guy is only asking 10k and it turns out ot be worth 100k, they dont need to scam people. there is always haters out there.
It’s actually not even worth that...
Ikr you know how easy it would be for someone to strike one of these, i think the pawn shop and that guy are in on it to say it's real
Thank you Pawn Stars for making my day better and for the educational aspect as well. It's a great get away from the turbulence I experience in life from time to time. Love this show since it came out on TV.
What channel?
I know all these transactions are staged in order to have a show, but I do like learning the story on this stuff-the story of that coin was interesting.
They are only staged to a certain extent. The seller is real, the deals are real and the items are real and actually sold by. But the price has already been agreed upon usually a few weeks before shooting so they get time to arrange the production team and guest expert. So the haggling is often just an act. But the transactions are real
It's not staged. This is a real pawn shop with a hidden camera.
@@jasonmichael3676 you think this is hidden camera? So they just have sixteen 40mm cameras hidden all around the seller ready to zoom and pan everywhere? It's 100% not hidden, and the scene is setup with cameras rolling to make TV.
@@danielhenderson762 r/wooosh
@@nounm5465 sorry. Nothing about this comment chain is whoosh lol
Person who made original $2000.00 offer watches show. Waits patiently for a knock on the door.
Pawn shop guy:
"That is NOT a penny....it's a plastic pull out from the underside of a 2 liter Diet Pepsi screw on bottle cap."
It’s not difficult to look up a coin’s value and research about it. Pretty straight forward. If you know what you want for it, then ask that price, no explanations required. And also...go to a coin shop, not a pawn shop!
1:18 That is the walk of a woman not looking to buy anything and just getting screen time.
I was going to comment on her as well. I waited patiently. She then turned around a little later. I'm glad I didn't. My desperation is still my dark secret. lol
No complaints here.
I'd be happy to purchase that coin for around $500. So cool to think of who handled that coin through the years.
Expert: "This coin was struck in 1791, as it says."
Customer: "Re-he-healy?!"
Expert:"...in Birmingham, England"
Seller: Reaaallly?
Many coins were made later than the date on the coin. No 1804 silver dollars were made in 1804, all were made after 1835
@@frankprovasek5394 Reaaallly....?
And only an expert can decipher that
"This coin is flat"
"Reaaaaaally ?"
Thanks to David for bringing his knowledge to us!
Rick: I have to spend 2 dollars and shipping, and 20 dollars in grading costs... I'm taking all the risk here....
Grading costs more in the neighborhood of $100 (or a percentage of the value, whichever is higher).
Yeah, it is very expensive and hard to justify sometimes.
Legend has it this man is still trying to find the guy who offered him $2,000 for it to this very day.
When Dave was giving his little speech about the coin and the fife was playing, it reminded me of when Oliver Wendell Douglas on Green Acres gave speeches on farming the fife always played as well..😁🤘
“Quite frankly it’s worth between nothing and god knows how much.”
Thanks for the insight Rick
Saying it’s not a penny is probably the douchiest thing he’s ever said
Not at all. Strictly speaking, Rick is right. It's not a penny, it's a cent. Pedantic, yes, douch, no.
And one of Rick's hobbies is coin collecting, he is a professional coin collector, so he does have an idea of what coins go for, and their terminology.
Same as calling a Magazine as a clip
Dude, the US does not mint a penny at all. It's a one cent coin. Yes, people call it a penny but a penny is the name of a coin used to denote fractions of a pence. 8 pennies is worth 1 pence. The US started minting coins of 1/100ths value cause it made counting easier.
@@scottwpilgrim you are a big league clown my friend!
@Lock Bresnar Lock, scripted or unscripted, it wasn't funny or entertaining. However I'm willing to compromise with you by taking it for what it is, which is ol' Rick being a piece of work as usual!
Supposedly calls his friend to drive down. Same shoppers are in the background after friend arrives.
If he got $2200 about 20 years after an offer for $2000 then he actually would have gotten less than he could have.
Gabriel Vieira ?
V1ruXX inflation
@NoPain NoGain inflation means he would have got the value of 3000 in current day so not really that much, a lot sure but yeah
That's neither a coin, nor American. Always a great opener.
rick: says anything
rick: *wheezing*
The expert is one of the most undervalued experts here
“I won’t take less than 2200”
“ how much you want for it”
“2000”
Calls his friend: “Hey, I’ll take $2000 for that old penny now.”
Friend: “ Dude, I’m flat broke. But if it makes you feel any better, I’d have given you $4000 when I had dough last year.” 😂 😂
2 days later:
"So we made cents"
"So we made sense"
OHHHHHH
Buddy is probably sitting at backstage reading a script. Lol
i love coin episodes wish they'd do more
(Says he won’t take anything less than $2,200)
Guy: I’ll take $2000
Customer : do you have a bathroom I can use
Rick : Sorry the best I can do is Corey's half empty soda bottle... I'm taking a long shot on that
He will still sell it to the other guy for $2000 even knowing its worth $800 lol.
Quantum Studio Creations as if that guy is gonna give him $2000 after waiting 20 years
Maybe he will think it was worth that much, just like what the experts says it's worth up to 5k in prestine condition
I would never give up that coin.
Rick you are great person
I'm going to go there one day and when Rick says "Let me call a buddy" I'm going to "Don't bother, I brought my own buddy"
Think he'd take my buddy's appraisal?
"I still got a $2,000 offer on the table" That I declined 20 years ago
I like how Rick cleverly asks how much you want for it.
Anyone else checking out the blonde in the background, haha
I was wondering what Edward Norton was doing now. Turns out he's a coin collector. 😂
the more that I think about it, the more i find it unprofessional for rick to refer to experts as his "buddy" cause it questions the validity of their estimates. it's like he's openly saying, let me bring in a friend whose gonna help me lowball you
that being true, the seller always can decline an offer... if i had any antique piece, i would go to this guy, then have it appraised by his "buddy" expert for free and get an idea of how much it sells in the market and then go back home n put it up for sale online...
the estimates are fake. if you look up the businesses the buddies represent most are out of state. unless you believe these guys would travel 4 hours because rick called them, the opinion and estimate and the history they give is all fake.
so rick can call them anything he wants.
@@MrYfrank14 eh the coin actually sells for 4-500
@@markusbonnet439 - it doesn't matter what the coin sells for, it is still a staged estimate.
If you bring a car to Rick for an estimate to have it repaired. Rick doesn't repair cars but gets his mechanic buddy from CT who looks it up and sees what it would cost to fix your car.
It is a real estimate in the sense that the price quoted is correct but it is fake in the sense Rick's buddy is not going to fly in from CT to give an estimate then fly in again to repair your car.
OK for all the people that call Rick a scammer, this guy, now knowing the actual retail value, is still willing to go back and SCAM the other dude for 2 grand. Ladies and gentleman presenting a genuine scammer.
It's my favourite show... "I'll give my buddy a call"
“That’s not a penny. It’s a cent”
Yeah...he knows that. It says it right there on the coin. But colloquially it’s pretty common to call a one cent coin a penny.
I wonder how much I can get for my autographed photo of Benjamin Franklin.
It predates the invention of the camera so it's really rare.
do some research first before going there
Lucas Z LOL
“Ok” *goes for handshake*
“Oh not a problem.”
Y’all are awesome
"Those damned Brits" 😂
He got burned, badly. He's in for 2k and now knows he'll never recoup that.
Very old 1791, my friends front door, in Cheshire in England is older than that.
I know right, I think sometimes that yanks forget there was a world before 1776
Customer is quick with the comeback @ 0:24.
Love coins!!!!
He won't be getting $2,000 if the guy who offered him that watches this episode first.
“ it’s worth anything between nothing and god knows what”. That’s an accurate range for pretty much anything.
Expert : it's worth 700 - 800 dollars
Rick : best i can do is 'one cent' and i'm taking ALL the risk
So why didn’t he take up on that offer 20 years ago if he was going to go with that same offer at a pawn shop owned by the biggest con artist in Vegas?
One keg sent to senators & congressmen over 250 years ago.. extremely rare.. should definitely be worth more than 2k..
How much would you pay for it? The only way that coin is worth 2k is if someone is willing to pay 2k.
man I love this mf show, this deadass teaches me about history 😭
I remember seeing a coin like that when I was young good watch..👍
4:21 exactly what I would offer for it $500.
Got a to sell it in six months to make money.
😂 how much we betting the guy comes back for Ricks $500 offer as the mystery buyer has vanished 🤣😂😄
every person who said im not taking any less than that. end up getting way lower than that 🤣
I find it hard to keep friendships for long periods like 20 years.
Brits: "Lets get the Americans to *pay* us to make their money"
Legend has it that he is still looking for the guy who offered 2k
Jesus Christ the legend has it line is played out.
Why do you guys always repeat the same old “legend says” comment on every section? Can’t you be original and make your own comments? Don’t be a liberal NPC who repeat each other.
lol the way he pronounced Birmingham 😂
That intro was great
Rick doesn't hide his dislike for the British does he? Lol
I’ll give you a 2018 shiny penny and that’s me taking a big risk
I LOVE❤THIS COIN
“I still have another Offer of 2000” lmao some guy from 30 years ago hahaha
Its hard to believe that it was worth only 750. That coin was one of the first American coins ever struck, and was struck by a foreign government. One year before we actually struck our coins.
Part of the reason is that it's a copper coin. Prices rise with silver coins of the period, particularly as denomination rises.
No way that guy waited 20 years for that coin lol
Depends. If the dude's super duper passionate about his collection, not even time will faze him.
Hw he passed away last year bruh
Time is relative
Rick: "I'll offer you $500!"
Seller: "I've got to go see about a girl I asked out in jr high and a $20,000 offer 20 years ago!"
Antiques Roadshow goes America - @ 3:41 ... just look at that reaction.
I’ll take it for free and I’m taking a big risk here
That expert looks A LOT like my brain surgeon…
I always wondered what happened to him after retiring from neurology
Seeinf if the offer is still on the table 20 years later lmaoooo i actually lol’d
its funny after all the years ricks been doing this he still has to "call a buddy of his" lol
Twenty years ago three was no internet to research the value of things. The $2000 offer is 100% going to reevaluate the worth of that non-coin.
20 years ago, there was internet.
2:06
Expert - "In Birmingham England"
Seller - "realy? Birminghaming"
OMG THIS IS SOOO LIT
Very interesting.
