@@eloiloranger7362I'm primarily looking through very circulated coins. If I was looking through BU coins, I'd likely want to use gloves. Thanks so much for watching!
Use to use a butter knife. Turn the piggy over with the butter knife in the slot. Shake the bank while trying to get the coins to fall out with the knife.
Very thoughtful of Tim. Someone's piggy bank treasure is now yours. Couldn't believe you had those silver coins. Normally if it was a kid's piggy bank it would have the lower denomination coins in it. Was glad to see those wartime tombac 5 cents. Happy holidays.
@CADRollHunter well first off you woukd still have that cool piggy. But seriously each and every coun removed is a reward as you go. When I was a kid we never knew how much was in the bank till we counted it. And that was always fun! Anyhow I was just saying it's pretty easy using a butter knife
The vibe when you had to smash the old one reminded me of all those TH-cam videos about "dispatching" crabs and lobsters. "It's the only way, and we'll do this cleanly and humanely."
This video was awesome, going to be hard to top this with a coin roll hunt I sorted all my metal detecting pennies, 93 copper 63 zinc/steel, all the zinc/steel were wasted except for a 2006 in good shape, but it wasn't a rare one
I wonder what would have been if you found 1921 50 cents or 1936 dot or 1944 nickel tombac..💣 Flintstone run & jump : )) Amazing find👏👏👏🤜 Thx for sharing ❤
@@CADRollHunter the 1917 quarter & 1919 dime were really sweet finds. I've never seen a Tomback nickel before either. Were they minted for just that year?
@@DWCNCThe tombac nickels were, essentially, war nickels. Partway through 1942 they started minting the 1942 nickels in tombac, with the regular beaver design. In 1943, they continued the tombac nickels with a modied "V" design for victory. In 44 and 45 they nited the V nickesl, but changed the composition again to chromium plated steel.
@CADRollHunter oh......ok. So mid way through '42-45 Canada has their own War Nickels!! That's so cool. I just learned something new. Thank you, James. 🤙🏼
No problem at all - I'm still learning, too@@DWCNC We actually had war nickels in the early fifties as well, with 51-54 made of chromium plated steel again, as well demand for nickel was high during the Koren War.
I inherited my grandfathers coin collection and it was much like the one you were showing coins that were just put away while they were still new. My grandfather moved to Canada in the early 50s and so some of it was really beautiful dimes and other coins from that time. That obviously had not been circulated for very long. It was cool to go through his collection and see money from all points of his life, and as he traveled later in life money from all over the world.
@@therevolutionscript I had much the same experience when I inherited my uncle's collection. He had international coins from his travels, and lots of coins he'd put away when he was younger. A glimpse into his past.
Now that would be a great way to preserve the antique pig, and ensure that one could get the coins in and out easily. I'm sure you could even find a piggy bank plug to plug the hole. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching. This is exactly how Tim got it as part of the estate purchase. The fact that there was nothing super-rare in there is a strong indication it's legit. It was pretty cool to see what a child (presumably) would have stuffed away almost 80 years in piggy bank.
🤣🐖🔨
Please give me all those coins please this is Jaxtyn the 10 year old that loves you
@@timpuls4425Thanks so much for watching, Jaxtyn! I'm glad you're enjoying my videos! All the best for 2024!
Hi! Why don't you use gloves to take your coins?
@@eloiloranger7362I'm primarily looking through very circulated coins. If I was looking through BU coins, I'd likely want to use gloves. Thanks so much for watching!
@CADRollHunte
Today that piggy bank is in haven 😂
Turn it upside down and work the coins out with a butter knife but it's apparent I had a creative childhood
I'm sure with enough time and effort that would have worked. I've used that technique before. But the hammer was much more expedient!
You don't have to break the bank, use a dinner knife to work the coins out, we often did this with piggy banks.
That would certainly have been one way to do it! thanks so much for watching!
Imagine every average 1st grader, who is able to do it, without leaving a trace. This guy though doesn't seem to be much of a handy man
@@Michel-7.7.7 But what fun would that be?! 🤣
@@CADRollHunter watching you fumbeling and curseing would be quite funny😉
@@Michel-7.7.7There might have been a bit of that, off camera!
Use to use a butter knife. Turn the piggy over with the butter knife in the slot. Shake the bank while trying to get the coins to fall out with the knife.
How much fun would that have been?!
Boo hoo! Poor little piggy! Should have tried the old butter knife trick we used to get into our siblings banks for a quick withdrawal.🤪❤
I tried that, but I didn't have the patience for it. The hammer was, well, expedient!!
Very thoughtful of Tim. Someone's piggy bank treasure is now yours. Couldn't believe you had those silver coins. Normally if it was a kid's piggy bank it would have the lower denomination coins in it. Was glad to see those wartime tombac 5 cents. Happy holidays.
Thanks, Ogir! The silver was a lovely surprise, for sure!
What a great pickup. That poor piggy really guarded a fine treasure. Congrats
He did his job well. I'm sorry he had to pay the price!
I till have one of these piggy banks... Haven't made up my mind to break open it yet. Anyways great video! Hope you have a great day ahead!
Thanks! You too! Always appreciate you watching!
@@CADRollHunter thank you! The pleasure is absolutely mine!
That’s very cool finding really cool coins in an old piggybank! I’d love to see what your albums look like now. That would be a great video!
Thanks, Julie! Some day I might give an update on my collection. This was a fun one, of course. So many old coins! Like a time capsule!
OMG!!! I had the same piggy bank as a child. Probably worth more now than what was ever put into it. LOL!
And they're getting harder to find, what with all the hammering! ;0
Such a great and hilarious intro!
I'm glad you enjoyed that! Thanks for watching!
Great score, James! You whacked that piggy bank Tony Soprano style! Coming from New Jersey, I would have done the same!😂
I'm just trying to figure out what to do with the pieces. Burlap sack and a brick? A little concrete job?! They'll never find him!!
That piggy bank was like a time capsule...wow
Exactly - it was so cool to realize it really had been filled almost 80 years ago and sat untouched that entire time!
Wow, awesome finds! Thank you for sharing - hope you had a great Christmas!
Thank you! You too!
Very cool "Time capsule". Nice finds. Happy Holidays to you!
Thanks, Tom! Happy Holidays to you, as well!
Man, this was awesome! That Newfoundland quarter is awesome! Super fun video! Thanks for sharing! 👽🤙🏻
Thanks a ton! It was lots of fun, and I certainly wasn't expecting silver like that!
Amazing silver and tombac nickels! It was really fun to go through it with you, of course,
the only regret is the piggy bank itself...
Thanks! This was lots of fun. Just feel a little bad about our piggy friend!
Amazing!!!
I had one of those solid piggies. Hate to say... you could get them al out with a butter knife
Yeah, but what fun would that be?!

I still had to close my eyes!
That is awesome thank you so very much for sharing hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas 👍👍❤️
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Mr. Piggy for your sacrifice. The pennies you contained were awesome. Make sure Mr. Piggy has an honorable memorial and burial.
He will be fondly remembered. He did his job diligently for nearly 80 years, keeping those pennies safe!
Hey, did you get the envelope I sent?
@@nicolerichter-smith2573I checked the mail after I saw this message and it was there! It's a bit worse for wear, but hopefully everything was there!
@@CADRollHunter cool. Hope all the coins are there.
This video was awesome, going to be hard to top this with a coin roll hunt

True enough - not likely to get these sorts of coins in a coin roll hunt!
What a great little hunt! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Merry Christmas, Emanuel!
Very cool hunt!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks @WalkerMagnet63! Merry Christmas!
Incredible score!
Thanks, it was lots of fun, and there were lots of great coins in there!!
I have that same Newfoundland coin, love the channel.
Glad you're enjoying my videos. Thanks so much for watching!
Ive seen the mercury and i used to own one. Didn’t know it was silver until Sep 10:36
Thanks so much for watching! I really appreciate it!
I just finnished watching this I am glad i did AWESOME PICKUP
Thanks @cweedcoins! This was a fun one, for sure!
I wonder what would have been if you found 1921 50 cents or 1936 dot or 1944 nickel tombac..💣 Flintstone run & jump : )) Amazing find👏👏👏🤜 Thx for sharing ❤
Any of those would have been incredible finds! But, it was already pretty cool!!
I also saw you getting several King George VI
It's always good to see some old coins!!
Great treasure hunt James. I feel bad for the poor little pork chop, but it yielded quite a few goodies. Especially the silvers.
The silver definitely made up for that guilty feeling for smashing him to pieces!!

R.I.P. piggies!😪
Them 20.s are very slick for in a bank since the 40.s!! I say they was not in there near as long as u think. But cool find.
That's possible, we'll never know for sure!
Nice finds.
Thanks 👍
Kind of sad, those early pennies actually took drops of sweat to earn
True enough! Thanks so much for watching!
Use a butter knife. I could empty it in 5 minutes
It's a bit too late for that now! lol! Yes, I could have done that, but that wasn't going to be dramatic enough!
Great video!
Thanks so much for watching! I appreciate it!

Cool George V quarter
Full of funny money. That’s what I call Canadian money.
Thanks so much for watching! Feel free to check out my other videos on funny money! Have a great New Year!
Did you find any King George v in that piggy bank
I did! But you'll have to watch the whole video to see what I found!!
get the glue. lol
Lol! I think he's beyond repair!! Thanks so much for watching!
I think i would use a small hole saw to carefully drill out the belly of the ceramic piggy bank
Now that would be a great way to preserve the antique pig, and ensure that one could get the coins in and out easily. I'm sure you could even find a piggy bank plug to plug the hole. Thanks for watching!
@@CADRollHunter great info. New subscriber
@@bcbigfoot112 Thanks so much - I really appreciate it! I hope you enjoy my other videos. Have a great day!
@@CADRollHunter thanks. Happy hunting
Not seen it
This is gonna be fire. I found some Buffalo nickels in my parents but nothing else
Thanks for watching!!
@@CADRollHunter yw
Ive done this plenty of times to get coins out of a plastic beer bottle with a much smaller slot. Just an fyi
Thanks so much for watching! I hope you enjoyed the video!
R.I.P PIGGY
Lol! He's seen better days! Thanks for watching!
That Mercury dime is not a 2 over1 is it??
No - that would have been great, though!
🤔You can buy cheap diamond tile hole saws for $3, the pig was worth more than the coins?
I'm sure the pig would have been cherished by someone!
For years I got coins out of my bank when I was young by using a butter knife.
That works, for sure!
People have probably asked you this but would you ever make a video touring your collection?
It's something I'd consider. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for watching!
Who did the stuffing lol
The piggy bank was part of an estate purchase, so I'm assuming the person who passed might have been the person to fill it up as a child in the 40s.
Please send me the pieces of porcelain
Butter knife works
Woah! How this is the most viewed video you have!
I know, right? I guess people wanted to see the piggy get it!
mmmm Bacon
I love the smell of bacon in the morning!
Those coins could have been removed by sliding them out, one by one, on the edge of a butter knife.
That is correct. But what fun would that have been? Thanks so much for watching!
You know there is a 1995 doubled die worth quite a bit
Yes, I'm always looking for that one!
Not sure this looks little sus would been easy get bunch cents put in old bank but anyway not anything super rare
Thanks for watching. This is exactly how Tim got it as part of the estate purchase. The fact that there was nothing super-rare in there is a strong indication it's legit. It was pretty cool to see what a child (presumably) would have stuffed away almost 80 years in piggy bank.
Use a tweezers
Rubber-tipped ones, of course!
You spend so much time saying nothing ….
It's an art. Thanks for watching!
You had some good fun, I can tell lol
I certainly did - I hope you had fun watching!
Next time think Kintsugi 😅😉🫶🏼✌🏼 amazing finds though!
Getting the glue out now!!
