I’d say anyone who would accept silver as “payment” in a barter situation would already recognize what Pre ‘65 constitutional silver is... I personally would trust the Pre ‘65 silver for authenticity over the modern silver proof coins. Good video!
Dan Max There’s a massive post-SHTF “education” coming. Scales will be popular. Wear will MATTER folks! And while I love the old stuff as much as the next stacker (and stack plenty of it) if I can’t pick and choose my constitutional silver, I’ll go proof if it’s cheap! Thanks guys!
@@danmax7456 This isn't something I would lose any sleep over. I still think its a no-brainer to go with the silver proof quarters over the standard junk silver quarters, as long as you can get them at about 5-6% or less over melt. They have much more going for them.
Speaking directly with Tim was very helpful. He was very kind within his time. He explained to me that these quarters had to be removed from a pure silver set of the major coins of any given year and just the quarters placed in a tube. This was a rare find Yankee. Well done!
My argument against the quarter proofs is that in a barter situation you'd have to educate them past the 25 cent perception. The advantage of fractional round silver in barter situations is that the perception barrier is removed and you're just bartering with an uneducated trade partner in terms of pure silver and not a recognizable legal tender that they will apply past experience to. I had to explain to my wife how an American Eagle silver dollar was valued more than the face value and it took some doing. Her response was something like, "well if it's worth so much, why did they make it only a dollar?" I almost pulled the last of my hair out. Obviously that argument goes away if we encounter sustained SHTF periods where people come around to understanding what you and I already do but early on, I'm not so sure we want prolonged debates about quarter values.
I’ve run these tests in the past too, James. Even did a video on trying to buy coffee with an American silver eagle!We’re not there right now in our society, but when our very lives depend on it I believe the education that you speak of will happen quite rapidly! Thanks for the great comment.
Plus it's much more difficult to counterfeit slightly worn silver quarters as opposed to silver bars, as in a SHTF situation, you also have to consider that most people you'd be bartering with (farmers, hunters, beer makers) won't have one of those metal identifiers to screen for silver clad counterfeits.
@@YankeeStacking You're an optimist Yankee, and I love that about you. Personally, I agree with James. I think people are so disconnected with what money really is, and what history really is, that they'll be the frog in the pot of boiling water and never understand what happened. Hope I'm wrong, but I don't think so.
Yep, as long as the government doesn’t assign an official value to it and people trade it more than face it is barter. Someone might want to negotiate a different price if all you have is slick or under-weight silver.
I've been buying 90% silver quarters and dimes. I think it's good to understand the price of copper is at a 10 year high. So that also effects the price of these.
I apologize for not mentioning that I bought these quarters from my local coin shop dealer, Tim! 1) He is old-school so you need to give him a call (no purchases via his website) 2) He does ship! 3) He had three tubes but they’re gone. 🤷♂️ 4) Here is his info: Tim Marschner Coin & Stamp Shop 300 Granite Street Manchester, NH 03101 (603) 624-4400 Tell Tim Yankee sent you!! They are also called "90% Modern Quarters - Statehood/ATB Proofs". Just be careful about the .999 Silver Statehood/ATB Proof Quarters from 2019 and on.
Weight differences: Finally someone explains why my quarters kept coming back out of the arcade machine mechs when I was a kid. 🙂 Some were probably real silver!
I completely agree junk silver is definitely the best SHTF /bartering / or as I call it “survival silver”! It’s a shame the fractional bullion has such high premiums, because that technically would be the best due to clearly saying 999 fine silver on the round. But constitutional is where’s it at! Great video Yankee!!
I just bought a bunch of "Constitutional Silver" from a local coin dealer and found a 2009S Guam Proof Quarter! I began thinking exactly what you explained in this video.
Interesting option for sure! I can't say that I've seen these at any LCS which makes sense if there is not a demand for them. I just wish the mint would add a 90% Silver on the inscription to avoid confusion and increase trust when bartering.
So glad I bought a roll of 40 silver proof state quarters 5 months ago. Paid $150 at the time. The wear is really becoming an issue on constitutional silver. My proof silver quarters have so much silver weight I can only fit 39 in a 40 coin tube!
I'm 31 years old and when I started my stack back in late 2009 Early 2010... I got up to 331 silver quarters. I bought the best stuff early on. I only have stuff that is trusted like ASE's, Englehard W and P 10 Oz bars, Johnson Mathey 50 Oz bars, Pcgs graded low mintage year gold eagles 1/10 OZ, Washington silver quarters. All my stuff is choice and ANYONE would be willing to accept it be it's the most trusted stuff.
I buy BU Rosie pre-64 junk dimes. Divisible, 1 roll has 3.pure troy silver if not sliders., Cheap, $1.40 junk dimes, quarters in any combo has 1 oz, of pure silver. These are constants. Alll you need is spot & a calculator.
Update: got three tubes of it last year. I am glad to have this as an option now that I know about it! I would tag the video "90% Modern Quarters" along with other things to make it easier for people to find this when looking around for this kind of silver. I tried to get some yesterday at my local dealer, but they were out..... Definitely going to try to grab these in the future when physical supply settles in and I have my core stack of just American Silver Eagles setup.
Unknown? Like current constitutional silver is with 99.9% of the US populous? Yeah, there's a GREAT "EDUCATION" coming, Heist. 😉 Thanks for watching, my good friend! 👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking Hey, the public is DUMB! I had a friend nearly arrested at the mall for using a very legitimate $2.00 bill! They're still made and you can still pick them up at the bank!
too much money though 280$ @23.5 spot for a roll when you can get junk silver at 210-220$ the really worn out quarters should be dumped first.. they will not complain but will be happy to get "some"
Great video. My LCS has, in the past, included those state silver proof coins in with his junk silver. I bought as many as I could at the time (this was a couple of years ago). I didn't see any more state proof silver quarters in his junk after that. After watching your video, I went down to his shop and asked him if he had any state quarter silver proof sets. He had 18 sets (97 quarters)! He sold them to me at 3% over spot. I am happy.
The sound of silver plinking on the table or against other silver is one of the identifiers of silver coins. It's a cheerful, authentic sound, instead of the generic metal sound made by today's quarters and dimes. Today's coins could just as well be electrical box knock-outs, from the sound of them.
It is key to stack and hold thus always improving your position. It is cool to have goals and favorites. Don't give up silver for silver. Diversify your stack by adding different types of silver. Silver means you always have discipline, vision, options, security and victory.
Yankee don't be surprised that the proof quarters weigh more since they are struck on thicker planchets! The proof Half Dollars are also thicker than regular Half Dollars!
What a coincidence! Just placed order for $5 face value silver dimes and $10 half dollars yesterday! Just liquidated some Silver Eagles and will replenish my stack with these "junk" silvers. Will definitely take a look at silver statehood quarters.

I've been avoiding those State proof quarters for a long time like they were the plague, but since you logically explained there's no wear on them, and there's more silver weight to them, I'm going to buy some. At least a tube of them, or more.
Prepper friend, that’s not how I roll. I advocate buying your PMs and keeping them. I don’t play the ratio or trade. IMO, Just keep it and shift focus! 👌🏼
I pick up rolls of 90% dimes at melt or less all the time. I also have a good number of fractional 999 silver rounds. It’s all about finding deals, not focusing on a certain “type”.
Bit the bullet and got the last 120 ASEs to finish of my 2nd monster... But all that really matters, is that I gave my heart, my life, & my eternity to JESUS‼️
Hey. I want to buy at least 1 tube of modern 90%. Your 100% right. This is super! If it is hard for the LCS to sell I am interested. Proofs at 90% with zero loss. 100% Solid Victory!
I'm stacking Mercury dimes now. Ordered a roll last week, another one on Monday, and another one last night. I'll keep ordering as long as the price keeps dropping. Dimes seem like the best way to go for bartering in my opinion...
i love the mercury dimes as well. I also love the liberty half dollars as well. i only have 2 barber dimes and i found those in a suitcase someone threw away.
Constitutional silver is what I started my stack on I will definitely benon the be lookout for these I've also been thinking about adding the 1984 commemorative olympic dollar they seem to still have a low premium
All these people giving thumbs down need to leave a comment explaining why!! Haters! Keep doing what your doing Yankee! Your awesome love what your doing here! Starting to inspire me to open a channel, i need to express my beliefs on why metals will skyrocket in my opinion, and the catalyst have nothing to do with printing and monetary policy. Truly i am not hearing anyone talking about it, but its coming very soon!!!
@@YankeeStacking haha I only say that in theory, it's addictive. Reality is I'll probably be adding to gold, silver and bitcoin until I think it is starting to over value and swap some silver and bitcoin for gold if ratios improve. Great channel man, enjoy the videos
Dimes and quarters are the best because of the small denomination. I buy all 90% junk depending on what looks the best at my LCS , and I love getting proofs from the junk silver bin
I thought about this during the lockdown months ago and picked up $10 face of proof quarters. Feeling better now that I see someone else got into the same thing. Another great video! Thanks Yankee!!
In my opinion, you're gonna have way more education to do in a SHTF situation trying to use 2007 quarters and convince people of the silver content. Pre-65 stuff is well known.....these aren't, and then throw in the .9999 2020 coins and it adds a new layer of complexity. Personally, I'll take a ragged pre-65 coin any day.
Constitutional silver is the best way in my mind to stack fractional silver. Great for bartering and other low cost purchases for SHTF scenarios. I always buy the frosty pre 64 cause it has all the silver there and none of the metal weight has been rubbed or worn off. My goal is to have at least a minimum of a $1,000 face value. I'm about 16% of the way there. So a few more years and goal complete. Thanks for the video Yankee. It warms my heart to watch your videos and I appreciate the hard work it takes to make these videos. Hours of time spent that we appreciate you for doing.
Keep buying quarter rolls from my credit union. They must have some machine that separates the silver from the clad, as I haven’t found a silver quarter in almost a year. Perhaps Brinks does it. I am amazed.
what I like about the pre 1965 quarters is they have that authentic look as it is hard to imagine that someone could counterfeit the pre 65 coins and then add the years worth of wear. When I see those new proofs and other newer silver coins (like american eagles) I get worried that I am going to be scammed on my purchase and am concerned that I may have trouble convincing others of their authenticity. I am working on getting a rare earth magnet and trying to educate myself on the other ways to have confidence that I am not buying fakes. At any rate thanks for the video! Good Info
I actually prefer getting the proofs instead of the older ones. One time I ordered some junk silver dimes and the guy asked if he could mix proofs in. I was very happy. I told him heck yeah.
Just so yall know if you didn't, from 2019 onward, the silver proof coins in mint sets are made with .999 instead of 90%. The half dollars, dimes, and quarters. 5 of these .999 quarters ads up to exactly 1.02 troy oz of silver, and it just so happens 5 come in each years' set! You can actually get a 2019/2020 silver quarter set on ebay rn for less than most places are still selling a single ASE for! A lot of people are buying them open to flip the 2020 bat quarter (going for $10 by themselves on ebay) and stacking the rest in tubes as 1/5th fractionals. This has kind of flown under the stacking radar imo and hopefully more people realize the potential of this going forwards. 5 quarters to make a solid troy oz will add some nice simplicity to bartering that normal constitutional silver has been lacking. Still high premium, but honestly worth getting at least a few if you can imo.
Up until recently, I was buying the 5 coin silver state quarter proof sets on Ebay for a little over melt including shipping using Buy It Now or Best Offer. You have to be persistent and keep checking the new listings daily to find the better deals. I accumulated lots of these sets at what I consider to be a steal of a price over the years. I figure that seeing as how these proofs still retain all of their metal content, they should sell at a slight premium over regular junk silver quarters which always have some wear on them.
You are on to something. I’ve buying these since February 2020 for the exact reason. In fact I ran he idea by Silver Dragons and he kind of dismissed it. It was his opinion and I chose to ignore it. You rock Yankee keep up the great videos.
I do love my Junk, but I am not convenced that the average pleb understands it's true value. I do have a number of rolls of Mercy dimes, but I buy mostly Rosie dimes, Wash. quarters and Kennedy 1/2s
I live in Europe So what you call Constitutional silver is quite rare. So I buy Vienna's and Brittania's. Bartering such large weights would be difficult so I store tobbacco and alcohol for bartering instead.
What people don’t understand is if (or should I say when) we have SHTF RESET it will only take a New York minute for the uneducated on Constitutional silver to get educated. Their own survival will depend on it. This is a great find Yankee. I’ve been stacking pre 1964 constitutional silver for 2 yrs and this is a great alternative! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I work at a lcs and i love the job. Just so awesome.. I started 2 years ago and ive learned so much. I buy 90% constitutional coins every week, i try to. Its the best premium and easy to trade. Times are hard now, silver is a great commodity to have and its bettet than fiat! Buy silver gold anything you can. You cannot go wrong!!! Watch for Low premiums !!! God bless everyone. Stay safe.
Thanks for the video and info. Was gonna ask if Tim had any more tubes of these...then saw your follow up comment: gone! But I’ll keep searching for them, and will check out Tim’s other items too. Thanks again
As they may be nice. Most people wouldn't see them as silver because of the date. Pre 65 is for more known as 90% silver. But as a stacking stand point silver is silver. Most 90% is sold face value so shiny means little....
“Most people” don’t have a CLUE as to what a pre-65 coin is! The post SHTF education will be across the board IMO. And shiny is just a Yankee-thing. 😜 But weight loss isn’t. 😏👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking I totally agree in a post SHTF situation. But the date is the easiest form of knowing if it is silver. Shiny is a nice thing coins,,,cars,,,and women
@11:45 - At first listening his coin dealer paid $195 which was only $1 above the then current melt value. However, Tim must have had the coins for some time to have know they were hard to sell, so it’s likely the spot silver price, and therefore the melt value, was somewhat lower at his time of acquisition. Nevertheless, a highly attractive coin at a highly attractive price/premium. Great video! 🧨
Its been a year to remember. I bought a tube of 2020 ASE. The premiums were 20.5% over spot. Most of them are going to be gifts. A silver lining to a turbulent year.
When silver goes up to $75.00 it won't matter what kind of silver you have. If things get so bad we have to barter, I don't think people will turn down any silver you might have to trade.
I just called and had a very good chat with Tim. He's very informative and I am going to stay in touch with him and the coin shop. Will most likely be doing some near future business with him. Thanks for his info.
You can get the 2020 ATB .999 silver coins on eBay for $7 below what the US Mint sells them for with free shipping from eBay. Have bought a few of them. The 2019 are available as well but only for a few dollars below what the US Mint is selling them for. A little better deal a few days ago but still a good price.
Silver husky told me that these were a better option than pre 65 coins, only thing I can say is that some people may not recognize the newer quarters as silver. The rims look silver but anyone could refuse to take them saying that they are painted if they don't have a magnet.
“If they don’t have a magnet?” Not sure I understand. 🤔 The .999 silver “slide” method I get, but junk doesn’t do that very effectively. And next to no one knows that pre-65 coins are silver, never mind modern silver “junk”. The education is coming across the board and weight will be a big factor IMO. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 👌🏼👌🏼
The jacked up price starts to be added because they get a that a numismatic value as well. Pretty coins like that if slabbed up. Would go for $15-$25 a coin.
I saw those on sd bullion! I almost got them too. So cool! Those are the state quarters. We all collected them in the day. Where’d you see them with low premiums? I would like some.
Yankee gotta give it to you ! You’re an excellent educator! I don’t watch most videos from start to end but your videos I can’t stop watching til it’s over ! 👏👏👏👏🤣🤪🚨😎
My local coin dealer recommends silver dimes! No premium now on silver dimes but if silver shoots up in value then there may be a huge premium on fractional silver dimes. If silver prices continue to be manipulated on the downside, I recommend collect silver coins that have a good numismatic value from the 90% bin (low risk)
I’d say anyone who would accept silver as “payment” in a barter situation would already recognize what Pre ‘65 constitutional silver is... I personally would trust the Pre ‘65 silver for authenticity over the modern silver proof coins.
Good video!
Thanks for watching! 👌🏼
I’m kinda with ya! I trust the old stuff. I’d worry that the new stuff was 40% or something

Way easier to explain that value
Just a thought... If we’re using money to “barter” for goods and services... Would it still be called “bartering?”
S V, “real money”? I wouldn’t call it that, but the government probably would! 😂
This got me thinking so I looked it up. It’s actually called expenditure (the act of spending money) 👍
Yep, as long as the government doesn’t assign an official value to it and people trade it more than face it is barter. Someone might want to negotiate a different price if all you have is slick or under-weight silver.

“We’ve” been doing this for years.
Look up bartering services/organization in your local area.
There’s this invention called the Internet
I think so, considering money is really just a construct that grew out of debt and allowed for a more pragmatic way to pay for goods and services.
I've been buying 90% silver quarters and dimes. I think it's good to understand the price of copper is at a 10 year high. So that also effects the price of these.

Prepper friend, that’s not how I roll. I advocate buying your PMs and keeping them. I don’t play the ratio or trade. IMO, Just keep it and shift focus! 👌🏼
Au for Ag. Ag has more upside potential. Just from an industrial stand point. Never mind the monetary side. Cheers
sarge27271 No argument from me! Silver is a far more speculative metal.
I pick up rolls of 90% dimes at melt or less all the time. I also have a good number of fractional 999 silver rounds. It’s all about finding deals, not focusing on a certain “type”.
Thanks for watching! 👌🏼
Bit the bullet and got the last 120 ASEs to finish of my 2nd monster...
But all that really matters, is that I gave my heart, my life, & my eternity to JESUS‼️
OK.....first things first......AMEN BROTHER! Glad to meet another brother in Christ‼️
Now...SECOND monster box??? 👊🏼😲👌🏼
Wow 2nd monster box! That's a high percentage of assets in silver
Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah for God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son
And Q , right?
Hey. I want to buy at least 1 tube of modern 90%. Your 100% right. This is super! If it is hard for the LCS to sell I am interested. Proofs at 90% with zero loss. 100% Solid Victory!
Thanks Carl! Tim’s out, but keep looking!! 👌🏼
I just want to say thank you Ive been stacking less than a year and you showed me so much and open my eyes to how unreliable paper money is
I’m humbled to have been of some assistance to you, Mark. Thanks for the kind words. 😊👌🏼
I had a similar opportunity to pick up $7 face of these, I'm so happy with them!!!!
Yankeeeeeeee, you speak the truth!
Good to see you, slow! How are things going for you and the family?
@@YankeeStacking Dude. Big news coming soon.
I'm stacking Mercury dimes now. Ordered a roll last week, another one on Monday, and another one last night. I'll keep ordering as long as the price keeps dropping. Dimes seem like the best way to go for bartering in my opinion...
I LOVE DIMES!! Have a ton of em. And if they had modern 90% silver dimes I’d snag them too! 😆👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking I don't have a lot of dimes yet... But that's what I'll be spending my next stimulus check on! LOL
i love the mercury dimes as well. I also love the liberty half dollars as well. i only have 2 barber dimes and i found those in a suitcase someone threw away.
90% quarters & dimes, for when you need to make change.
You got it! 👌🏼👌🏼
I am watching most of your videos, also those getting back to 2020... with many various subjects on silver touched. Thanks Yankee!
I need to get my hands on some 90 percenters constitutional silver
Go for it! And thanks for watching. 👌🏼
Constitutional silver is what I started my stack on I will definitely benon the be lookout for these I've also been thinking about adding the 1984 commemorative olympic dollar they seem to still have a low premium
I picked up several rolls of 90% yesterday during the dip. 😎
VERY smart, Amelia! 👌🏼👌🏼
Where do you buy them from?
Jayson Edwards I got them from my LCS dealer Tim!
@@YankeeStacking Is Tim an online dealer? Or just a private friend?
All these people giving thumbs down need to leave a comment explaining why!! Haters! Keep doing what your doing Yankee! Your awesome love what your doing here! Starting to inspire me to open a channel, i need to express my beliefs on why metals will skyrocket in my opinion, and the catalyst have nothing to do with printing and monetary policy. Truly i am not hearing anyone talking about it, but its coming very soon!!!
Thank you SO MUCH SaltLife! Yeah, haters have to hate. 🤷♂️
I scored a 1989 panda 1oz
Last night for $20 over spot lol
1850$
Nicely done, Tom! 👌🏼
Wym 1850?
? Sounds like you pay too much
@@blaccsilverstaff5484 im guessing its gold not silver
@@judgestacker9472 oh ok😆
I was born in 1980 and I remember the bank was selling bags of $500 face value junk silver for face value , I was 9 years old with my grandfather.
Bought 5 more kilo bars last night when silver was at 22.10. Got me to my final stack goal of 2500oz . Now just sit back watch
Wow, you're set for life. Great.
But the REAL question is just how long will J Snow “just sit back and watch?” 😂👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking haha I only say that in theory, it's addictive. Reality is I'll probably be adding to gold, silver and bitcoin until I think it is starting to over value and swap some silver and bitcoin for gold if ratios improve. Great channel man, enjoy the videos
@@Reidar911 Not sure I'll be set for life unless we hit some of those crazy numbers, here is to hopium!
Hope you're able to sell those kilos when spot goes sky high.
Dimes and quarters are the best because of the small denomination. I buy all 90% junk depending on what looks the best at my LCS , and I love getting proofs from the junk silver bin
I thought about this during the lockdown months ago and picked up $10 face of proof quarters. Feeling better now that I see someone else got into the same thing. Another great video! Thanks Yankee!!
WTG!! You were right in my opinion! 👊🏼😁👌🏼
The wear is why you use .715 to determine your price. If you do that, you will make out just fine on what you are paying for circulated junk.
Good point! 👌🏼
Meanwhile us in Europe: 20% premiums on silver and 10/12% on gold😅
OOF
OUCH!!! Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
Hey there! Would 40 of these ($10 face value) at $255 be a good buy? So sorry, just starting my stacking process and need a bit of guidance
In my opinion, you're gonna have way more education to do in a SHTF situation trying to use 2007 quarters and convince people of the silver content. Pre-65 stuff is well known.....these aren't, and then throw in the .9999 2020 coins and it adds a new layer of complexity. Personally, I'll take a ragged pre-65 coin any day.
Constitutional silver is the best way in my mind to stack fractional silver. Great for bartering and other low cost purchases for SHTF scenarios. I always buy the frosty pre 64 cause it has all the silver there and none of the metal weight has been rubbed or worn off. My goal is to have at least a minimum of a $1,000 face value. I'm about 16% of the way there. So a few more years and goal complete. Thanks for the video Yankee. It warms my heart to watch your videos and I appreciate the hard work it takes to make these videos. Hours of time spent that we appreciate you for doing.
I so appreciate those VERY kind words!!! You’re support of my channel means a lot. Thanks. And yes, constitutional silver ROCKS!
Keep buying quarter rolls from my credit union. They must have some machine that separates the silver from the clad, as I haven’t found a silver quarter in almost a year. Perhaps Brinks does it. I am amazed.
what I like about the pre 1965 quarters is they have that authentic look as it is hard to imagine that someone could counterfeit the pre 65 coins and then add the years worth of wear. When I see those new proofs and other newer silver coins (like american eagles) I get worried that I am going to be scammed on my purchase and am concerned that I may have trouble convincing others of their authenticity. I am working on getting a rare earth magnet and trying to educate myself on the other ways to have confidence that I am not buying fakes. At any rate thanks for the video! Good Info
I think it was a very smart Investment...I will be adding that to the stack...(does mr. Tim still have anymore tubes???..as always..great job
I actually prefer getting the proofs instead of the older ones. One time I ordered some junk silver dimes and the guy asked if he could mix proofs in. I was very happy. I told him heck yeah.
SWEET! Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
Just so yall know if you didn't, from 2019 onward, the silver proof coins in mint sets are made with .999 instead of 90%. The half dollars, dimes, and quarters. 5 of these .999 quarters ads up to exactly 1.02 troy oz of silver, and it just so happens 5 come in each years' set! You can actually get a 2019/2020 silver quarter set on ebay rn for less than most places are still selling a single ASE for! A lot of people are buying them open to flip the 2020 bat quarter (going for $10 by themselves on ebay) and stacking the rest in tubes as 1/5th fractionals. This has kind of flown under the stacking radar imo and hopefully more people realize the potential of this going forwards. 5 quarters to make a solid troy oz will add some nice simplicity to bartering that normal constitutional silver has been lacking. Still high premium, but honestly worth getting at least a few if you can imo.
Thanks James. I mentioned that fact in the video. 😉👌🏼

Up until recently, I was buying the 5 coin silver state quarter proof sets on Ebay for a little over melt including shipping using Buy It Now or Best Offer. You have to be persistent and keep checking the new listings daily to find the better deals. I accumulated lots of these sets at what I consider to be a steal of a price over the years. I figure that seeing as how these proofs still retain all of their metal content, they should sell at a slight premium over regular junk silver quarters which always have some wear on them.
See my pinned comment. Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
GREAT video. Adding this to my "Community Classics" playlist. Cheers!
I've been buying these silver Washington quarters for about a year now. Most dealers are sold out and prices available are going up significantly.
You are on to something. I’ve buying these since February 2020 for the exact reason. In fact I ran he idea by Silver Dragons and he kind of dismissed it. It was his opinion and I chose to ignore it. You rock Yankee keep up the great videos.
I talked with SD about it too. He and I don’t always agree, but that’s the cool thing about our community! It’s still SILVER! 👌🏼👌🏼
I do love my Junk, but I am not convenced that the average pleb understands it's true value. I do have a number of rolls of Mercy dimes, but I buy mostly Rosie dimes, Wash. quarters and Kennedy 1/2s
Yankee, your videos are so informative.
I live in Europe
So what you call Constitutional silver is quite rare. So I buy Vienna's and Brittania's.
Bartering such large weights would be difficult so I store tobbacco and alcohol for bartering instead.
What people don’t understand is if (or should I say when) we have SHTF RESET it will only take a New York minute for the uneducated on Constitutional silver to get educated. Their own survival will depend on it. This is a great find Yankee. I’ve been stacking pre 1964 constitutional silver for 2 yrs and this is a great alternative! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
If the SHTF includes the grid going down, and the Internet going dark, nobody will know what spot is (or was).
I work at a lcs and i love the job. Just so awesome.. I started 2 years ago and ive learned so much. I buy 90% constitutional coins every week, i try to. Its the best premium and easy to trade. Times are hard now, silver is a great commodity to have and its bettet than fiat! Buy silver gold anything you can. You cannot go wrong!!! Watch for Low premiums !!! God bless everyone. Stay safe.
Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
Pretty brilliant, if you can find it at all, even better if you can find it at a reasonable premium. Good luck!
Thanks for the video and info. Was gonna ask if Tim had any more tubes of these...then saw your follow up comment: gone! But I’ll keep searching for them, and will check out Tim’s other items too. Thanks again
Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
As they may be nice. Most people wouldn't see them as silver because of the date. Pre 65 is for more known as 90% silver. But as a stacking stand point silver is silver. Most 90% is sold face value so shiny means little....
“Most people” don’t have a CLUE as to what a pre-65 coin is! The post SHTF education will be across the board IMO. And shiny is just a Yankee-thing. 😜
But weight loss isn’t. 😏👌🏼
@@YankeeStacking I totally agree in a post SHTF situation. But the date is the easiest form of knowing if it is silver. Shiny is a nice thing coins,,,cars,,,and women
I want to thank you for drumming into my head the principles of watch the premiums
The proof quarters are great, really hard to get now, slight premium but worth it.
Very nice coins, definitely a good value!
@11:45 - At first listening his coin dealer paid $195 which was only $1 above the then current melt value. However, Tim must have had the coins for some time to have know they were hard to sell, so it’s likely the spot silver price, and therefore the melt value, was somewhat lower at his time of acquisition. Nevertheless, a highly attractive coin at a highly attractive price/premium. Great video! 🧨
Australian 1966 50c is the best. Beautiful size, very hard wearing, 80% silver, 3 equal one ounce of silver, only one year to worry about.
Cool Dean! 👌🏼
3:15, I’m jiggling coins in my hand as I watch 😂😂 I LOVE the sound.
Its been a year to remember. I bought a tube of 2020 ASE. The premiums were 20.5% over spot. Most of them are going to be gifts. A silver lining to a turbulent year.
I sure has been a challenging year! 2020 coins will possibly have a nice premium one day! 😂
When silver goes up to $75.00 it won't matter what kind of silver you have. If things get so bad we have to barter, I don't think people will turn down any silver you might have to trade.
I think this is a very good idea. Thank you for showing me this option. I will go and buy some now too.
See my pinned comment. Thanks for watching. 👌🏼
I just called and had a very good chat with Tim. He's very informative and I am going to stay in touch with him and the coin shop. Will most likely be doing some near future business with him. Thanks for his info.
@@jasonjanis814 Excellent! I'm so glad you linked up. He is a WEALTH of PM knowledge and a completely trustworthy man. 👌🏼
I’ve never even seen those proofs in 90% only the .999 proofs
Learn something new every day
Thank you Yankee
I do too, Savage! 😂👌🏼
You can get the 2020 ATB .999 silver coins on eBay for $7 below what the US Mint sells them for with free shipping from eBay. Have bought a few of them. The 2019 are available as well but only for a few dollars below what the US Mint is selling them for. A little better deal a few days ago but still a good price.
Thanks TB! Was WAITING for your comment and you didn’t let us down! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Silver husky told me that these were a better option than pre 65 coins, only thing I can say is that some people may not recognize the newer quarters as silver. The rims look silver but anyone could refuse to take them saying that they are painted if they don't have a magnet.
“If they don’t have a magnet?” Not sure I understand. 🤔 The .999 silver “slide” method I get, but junk doesn’t do that very effectively. And next to no one knows that pre-65 coins are silver, never mind modern silver “junk”. The education is coming across the board and weight will be a big factor IMO. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 👌🏼👌🏼
Yeah, my local dealer isn't selling them so cheaply. Maybe if they sit in his inventory awhile he'll reconsider. Nice deal!
Great idea man!
The jacked up price starts to be added because they get a that a numismatic value as well. Pretty coins like that if slabbed up. Would go for $15-$25 a coin.
Thanks for watching! 👌🏼
Good call. I just found a roll for a great price, and a few "sets" of 5. Thanks for the tip!
I saw those on sd bullion! I almost got them too. So cool! Those are the state quarters. We all collected them in the day. Where’d you see them with low premiums? I would like some.
At Tim’s!
Yankee Stacking bummer his online store not up. I’m at work. I’ll try to check around. Thanks
Yankee gotta give it to you ! You’re an excellent educator! I don’t watch most videos from start to end but your videos I can’t stop watching til it’s over ! 👏👏👏👏🤣🤪🚨😎
My local coin dealer recommends silver dimes! No premium now on silver dimes but if silver shoots up in value then there may be a huge premium on fractional silver dimes.
If silver prices continue to be manipulated on the downside, I recommend collect silver coins that have a good numismatic value from the 90% bin (low risk)
I can’t find any local dealers in Dallas that deal in these at all...can u tell me ur dealer info?
See my pinned comment. Thanks for watching! 👌🏼
I have 107 rolls of silver dimes. Can’t wrap my head around quarts or halves , especially proof. Counter productive to me. 😮
Is there still a place where you can buy these quarters? They look cool.
I love that sound👂🥰
Cool.. thanks for the heads up. I'm in..
