Being a coin collector myself, this video is like watching a fantasy dream come true. Most of the pennies & nickels you showed are pretty much face value. But, any of those dimes, quarters, half dollars, and any dollar coins 1964 or earlier are 90% silver. At today's spot prices, just the silver content alone in the pre-65 dimes is $1.70+ a piece. And, even the half-dollars that are 1965-1970 are 40% silver. Really cool poor man's collection worth thousands of dollars. That's what you found. I did see, just in this video, enough to pay the $3,000 you paid for the locker. So, you certainly made money. Great video! Thank you for sharing.
RIP to the previous owner.
To coin roll hunt that collection would have taken years.
They never would have just let it go, it was there passion
Was my first thought, so sad...
I was thinking the same thing, somebody spent a lot of time putting that collection together.
ocd and a love for history will do these things to a person
That's why when people say this is mine that's mine . It really isn't all of it is left behind in the end 😂😂😂
coin roll hunting isnt the only way btw
Would love to see a follow-up to this where you sit down with a collector and go through the entire collection including a comparison of quantity/value of coins that are basically face value over ones that have appreciated in value.
Yes need
I agree that would be a video I would like to watch
Great video
I bet he took them to coin star
I DO COLLECT. HE MAY HAVE A LOT MORE THERE THAN YOU THINK! THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW IS TO ACTUALLY SEE THEM!!!
My two cents ;-) - - I'm glad to see that you did not break open the encased coins. I've seen too many you-tubers do that kind of thing, and IF the coin had value, then it just plummeted the moment it was opened.
Kudos for wanting to get proper valuation.
My guess of this collection, it was someone who was just a step above a basic novelty collector. Maybe someone who inherited an existing collection and followed up on it for a while, then lost interest, or had health or financial issues and couldn't continue (or continue to pay the storage rent).
An absolute gem of a find for any basic collector.
10:28 “that’s a peace dollar!”

Yah, i hope he is going to do a follow up.
Yeah there could be tens of thousands of dollars l worth of coins
Thank you for the likes 👍
You are looking at 23 ish bucks per $1.50 face value of the silver coins
@@tugboat_actual it depends some are worth more then face value.
This was surprisingly very interesting
Didn't expect you to be here
@@theelectrocompany777 ikr
Why you following me
@Hans same
How does it feel to be verified
The Coin at 7:23 says: "Otto, King of bavaria" and the other Side says: "German Empire 1913, Five Mark" (Mark ist an older Type of Coin that was used before the Euro has been introduced in 2002 and it's equal to Five Dollar)
Near as I can tell, these go for about $10-15 dollars and up, depending on how worn they are.
I'm 12 years old, from Ireland, and I've been collecting currency for 3 years, I think it's such a good hobby! If I had those I'd actually suffocate of happiness lol.
I would too

Plost twist : he tries to find a coin collector and it's the guy who owned the coins he found
Came to see the coins, got so mad when you found antique guns and has them destroyed. Bro, wtf.
I mean why would he do that
They can earn good money selling the guns
Except the holster one, they were all definitely made after 1898, guns manufactured before 1898 are termed as antique guns, meaning you don't need an official trading license to deal in them, unlike guns made after 1898.

Thank for telling me
Was there an update on the coin collection?

Lol when you called the walking liberty half dollar a peace dollar, I just had to laugh a little

Just so you know anything 64 and older is silver except for the nickels and pennies nickel silver is 42-45 and keep all pennies older than 59 those are your coins that are worth a lot more than their actual US value! Hope this helped you
Exactly!! 👌🏽 I coin collect from time to time and the other day I got a silver dime when I went to go recycle cans and bottles and was like “Yup, automatically a keeper!😌” haha
@What's Inside no problem btw I loved the video and I am super jealous because I have a collection and wish I could get stuff for that cheap 😂 anyway nice finds
There is a penny that is sliver and I do not remember the date, its worth a cool mill.
@@SupuhSel First of all, hi, I have the penny of the 1985 year, so if you want to buy it, you can write to me.

That 1916 dime could be worth thousands if it’s has a Denver mint mark.
A cashier at work found a 1916 dime. I've been collecting 40+ years. Turned the dime over........Philadelphia. Very fine .👍👍
Hey Dan, I'm a coin collector, and those Benjamin Franklin half dollars are priced at $12 each, while the Walking Liberties can fetch up to $50! You're really fortunate. Once you fill your coin book with all those cents, you'll have $100. By the way, all coins before 1964 are silver. I also noticed that you can already grade the coins and determine their value with those red books in that box. If you've seen, the Jefferson Nickels are war coins, and they're all silver too. Just by looking at those boxes, I can tell you didn't waste your money. However, be aware that when PNG grades your coins, it's going to be costly. So, don't expect to get a lot of money after grading. I wouldn't be too confident about letting someone grade your coins for a fee. Just grade them at home with a book.
Watching you guess that nickels from the 50s and 60s have silver content was priceless. That's only war nickels from 1942-1945
watching you comment this even tho there were 1950 1960 1940 so there was 1940s LOL
Watching the comment section more than the video LOL
But they do have nickel in them.
Alot of nickels are collectable. Probably many worth more than the silver ones.
@@zinknot actually know, something as small as a silver half dime sells for $43,000. But then again, those are extremely old and rare. But a 1960 silver dime sells for around $9 but even a 1920 nickel will only sell for like $3
As a coin collector myself. I can easily see a $20,000 - $30,000 collection just from this video alone. If you take your time to find the right coin experts, your in for a full scale home run. Well done on a marvellous find.
Yes I love ur videos
@@fluffy131 Thank you 😊
Yes. He Needs to find a reliable source. Sale some as collection and other individually .
Hey I need some advice on my part, can I send u a picture of my collection so you can evaluate the value of it ? (Some coins dating before 1730's)
@@juliusprstfilms Yes of course, pop over to my channel and grab me on any of my socials 😊
The excitement in your voice man, keeps me watching haha. good video man!
Indeed
@@theelectrocompany777 yes, yes indeed
"Is there coins?" ... proceeds to read label currencies ... "OMG I see a coin"
😂Exactly
The big German coin you found is a 1913D Funf Mark (5 Mark) in what looks like VERY well condition. It would be great to see a follow up video on this collection to see what a coin specialist says about it.
Being a collector myself I see no where near $10,000 worth of coins there
Finally a person who isn't either lying about stuff (like "10:25, 17 million dollar coin") or some person with bad grammar saying stuff like "for sell $400"!
I remembered the show "Storage Wars " when i saw those lockers 😌🥺🥺
Yes history tv 18🙂
yah i wahtched it
The time effort this person has put into this collection is just shocking
Well he got his money back for sure 😊
@@rebeccamiller3600 I don't know if you are being sarcastic, but I think Faizan is talking about the person who initially owned the collection. He lost a lot of money, as he left all those stuff just in a random storage unit.
Mate, that is a collectors dream. To have that in my or anyone’s collection, I/ they would be so pleased.
By now, you must have found out that all the dimes, quarters, and half dollars dated pre-1965 are worth about 23 X face value, due to the fact that they are made of 90% silver.
13:30 these rolls usually go for around $100-150 anywhere. nice find!
the halves go around for around $12 a piece
(64 and earlier)
the silver quarters go for around $9 a piece
the dimes go for around $4 to $8
Amazing find! That box with all the pre 1964 dimes are worth at least 2000$. You’re definitely making your money back.
The dime box basically paid you back for the unit
How do you know
The one with all the 1964 and before dimes was all 90% silver dimes. Which is about $1.8 per dime.
Yeah looked like at least a grand in silver there
that spider that you found worth alot too, lol
10:28 im in pain after he just called that walking liberty half dollar a peace dollar
Sincerely speaking investment in crypto and forex trading is easier when you have the strategies and knowledge, I tried trading but lost totally. I advise you place your trade with an expert who knows how to trade.
Absolutely, investing with an experienced expert is the best way to get started in the trade market, am making huge profit on my investment since i started trading with Mrs Katherine Anderson her trading strategies are top notch.
@@bestintesla_ny Katherine Anderson is a well known bitcoin and forex broker, She taught me the ethics of trading I know today.
7:27 is the pre-EU currency from germany, a 5 "Deutsche Mark" btw :D
All I can say, being a coin collector my self, is silver, silver, silver........ nice find & good eye.
Chris from Missouri
Definitely go through them all. Dont get impatient and just sell them. I use to collect alot of coins. Some depending on when they are made can be worth 1000's of dollars. Also depends on where they were made as well. I'd definitely pay an appraiser to go through the whole collection. You could potentially have over $100k in coins. Potentially more. The guy clearly knew what he had. Looks like he took very good care of his collection. Minus leaving them in a storage unit.
I love collecting coins
Great find... A dream find. I would of loved just finding the Revolvers and Derringer.
I’m a coin collector and I would have to say this is upwards of 40,000
When you value coins you really need to look at the coin see if it’s rare and it condition and silver content. Coins are difficult to value at times. I buy and sell coins.
Sir, you are not a coin collector. Watching these videos as a real coin collector makes me laugh/feel sad for non-collectors that get so excited over old coins they think are worth something. Sure a silver dime that's now $1.80ish is a huge profit from 10 cents, but a box of a few hundred is not thousands of dollars. It's funny, because everyone of these videos, there is always something more interesting that they gloss over and you want them to look at longer.
@@MrRowskey I agree with you in full.
@@MrRowskey actually a dime is more around $3 in junk silver, a quarter is around $6 and a half dollar is around $10 now a days.
I think this a rough estimate just based off what we see it could be way more or way less
Reminded me of Doc from Back to the Future with all his money from different times 😂😂😂😂
I used to do that, you can go trade cash for rolls of half dollars to pull the 90 and 40% silver from them and take back the rest.
I’m so envious of your find! That is a coin collectors dream come true!
That's my dream unit.. a coin collection. A friend hit the jackpot and had a dream unit like urs, full of coins and jewelry. Congrats. I'm super jelly
The silver is there and definitely worth the most. Everything else is generic change and worth nothing above face. The old Jefferson nickels from the 30-40s may have a key date and be worth more but not generally. Had a decent amount of silver, 1964 and before is 90% and Kennedy halves from 65-69 is 40%. Decent lot but cutting it close coming to profit. I’d have to see the coins closer to determine rarity and value however. One may be lurking and yet unfound. I do not know enough about stamps to comment about them. Sad to see those antique firearms be destroyed. History right there.
I’d even buy the collection from him, but the chances seem fairly low. Would be nice to fill out some nickel albums for the kids.
agree about the guns. In a previous video he said that he could not keep any guns he found in a storage locker. I would love to know why. I mean, I know that in every state handgun ownership is restricted by certain laws and in CA they are very strict but still, if there's a specific reason I would love to know what it is.
@@rickcimino5483 If I have to guess, it's probably because the storage locker auctioneer isn't a licensed gun dealer, so they can't legally "sell" those guns to him with the storage locker, or to follow the procedures for gun sales.
Also, the police would likely also be interested in knowing about guns that are involved in a crime and would likely confiscate those as evidence for the criminal investigation.
NOT SO IF HE HAS SOME DOUBLE DIEs & OBVERSE DOUBLE DIEs!!!
@@FranzJosephLP key word, IF ... you make a point though.
what you should do is bring only a few to get inspected at a time so they don’t see you with a lot of coins with a lot of value.
Dan you need to do a follow up video! Them coins are very rare!
If you are still viewing this, the stuff, on the surface, is mostly post 1900 American stuff, a large quantity of which is silver. The bayern coin is a pre ww1 German Empire Bavarian silver reichsmark coin from 2-5 marks judging by the size. Overall a quality lot of coins. Definitely worth getting it reviewed but the books themselves could provide lots of insight.
Yep that's a coin collectors paradise
You should look more carefully at the ‘junk’.... occasionally people hide valuables in there.... insides blankets, books, dolls, sawn into old clothes ....
Ya agreed I was thinking of that
I was just thinking about that
Maybe ask Silver Picker to look through your collection for you. He's one of the biggest coin/silver youtubers and often buys coin collections.
rft too
10:28 bruh “peace dollar”

I’d love an update to this! How awesome!
I wish I had that many coins I’m a coin collector and those are good coins
I’m a coin collector, this is amazing.
Hi, numismatist (coin collector) here. Not looking to buy or make an offer, but happy to answer any questions you (or anyone reading this) might have. I specialize in US coins so I can't be of much help with the foreign issues.
Will quickly point out that those rolls of dimes at 13:32 appear to be pre-1965; if they are, they're 90% silver and worth about $100 each in melt value alone (as of this writing). Looks like that covers the initial $3000 investment by itself!
That’s a mega score. You definitely made your money back with all those coins
Most of the silver dollars tend to go for 30ish bucks US. If you can get a $5 gold piece in good condition can go for around 650-700 dollars US
Oh man, the collector could die in his own tears...
can't believe you turned those guns in! the colt revolver was worth more then the entire coin collection, and all the guns were obviously old enough to not need paperwork or permits to own.
Hopefully Dan sees this as I was so surprised to hear he was going to get rid of them!
The guns are worth a good amount but not worth the same as the coins, a lot of it is silver. The pre 64 dimes are worth about 1.40 each he made his money back just there
That coin collection is worth about as much as a blued python in 100% condition
If there was a rare make and model from that era of guns definitely could be worth way more then then coins. Looked all old rare and curio guns so he could have legally sold those to any gun shop even in California.
No way the coins are more money it's the rarity of the coins which some of it might hold.
I don’t know if it was just me but was anybody else just sitting here jaw-dropping to the floor of how much those coins were worth I collect coins myself and have a mediocre collection but as I was watching this video my jaw just dropped lower and lower as each coins value increased I am just in shock right now of how incredible that all of those coins are Great find definitely worth the money😮😮😮😮😁😁😁😁😁
Would have loved to see the projectile devices in close ups. Most of them look pretty trashed, but the one in the holder (not using actual device names) looked like it was in OK shape.
$3000 is a lot to spend. Thank You so much for spending a ton lot of money for us to enjoy❤️
Uhh $3k isn't nothing on a locker like this. That coin collection is probably in the $50k range.

Meh, it's common sense when valuing things to have different people and people you trust look at it. Some people for sure want to undervalue and then buy it off them.
@What's Inside Now my comment lost all credibility... 😂
I think he is just going to go back and forth between storage lockers and amazon/apple returns.
The coin at 7:27 is an old german coin from 1913, called "Mark". The one you have is a 5 Mark one. On the back is the "Reichsadler" and around it it sayes, routhly translated, "German Empire 1913 five Mark". On the front is a portrey of "Otto von Wittelsbach" he was the Bavarian King at the time the coin was made. Around it it says, again routhly translated, "Otto King of Bavaria. I'm from Germany so please excuse some mistakes. Great Video as allways

I’ve been collecting coins for a few years and can tell that some of what you found is very valuable.
Old dolls in nice packaging are also worth a lot. Especially if they are Barbies or from Disney. That Tikerbell doll could sell for 30-50.

POV: You are looking in the comment section to see if someone knows the value of the coins, but you failed as they don't have the time to comment
Hello mark, this is my garage you went through and wanted to request that if I could have the big coin in acrylic case back?
Those dime rolls are worth over $50 a piece!! Just those rolls are. All those silver dime rolls together are worth thousands!
All the dimes, quarters, and halves you found dated pre 65 are 90% silver! Also halves made 65-70 are 40% silver.
The coins alone are worth upwards to $50,000! This is called a JACKPOT!
Um no, not remotely, and especially if you don't spent the next decade selling each individual one on ebay - where you would likely get the most money. One of those silver dimes is worth less than $2 in silver ... awesome for a dime, but you could probably make more selling it on ebay to someone that believes it to be worth more.
@@MrRowskey I would say the collection is closer to $40,000
@@MrRowskey even just a few key dates or rare errors in there could change everything
One good way to not get ripped off is have Two guys who don't know each other at the same time appraise them.
Nice finds im jealous LOL great coins
being a coin collecter, this is fun to watch. I can tell which ones are silver, and you have A LOT. Quarters, silver would range between 1964 and back. And half dollars, 1864 and back are 90%, and 1964-1968 half dollars are only 40-60% silver.
7:27 is a coin from Germany
It is five Mark
Dude,camera and quality of these videos is awesome!
I work at a coin shop so this made me excited to see
Where’s part 2? I wanna see the value and cool finds of the coins!!!
Damn things got better the moment you found a silver 5 mark coin from 1913.
very cool video but don't cut open all those rare coins to see what's inside!
pls follow up with episode 2 of selling those coins
Do way more on abandoned storage lockers!!
Soo much silver! Who knows how many errors and varieties are in there! Daaang lucky ! Yes take them ALL HOME!
This is a lifetime collection of a person. So much effort and passion.
I would love to come across a coin collection like that.
Hey Dan! I’m really interested in some of the -Silver Dollars- that you have found! I live in SLC and would drive down to Saint George in a heart beat to pick them up. Please consider, love your videos!!! 👏
SPOT on...You have an idea , they surely do NOt!
Let’s go another storage locker video!!! 🔥 🔥
Once in a lifetime timd find! congrats!! Hope theres some real gems in there. Looking forward to seeing the results.
I am sooo late to the party, but here is a quick way to see if a coin AT LEAST has silver content:
1964 and older dimes, quarters, half dollars, and large dollars are all 90% silver content. At today's silver prices, that is about 19x their face value (so a dime is worth 1.90 in silver alone)
1964-1970 half dollars are 40% silver
1942-1945 nickels MAY be war nickels, which contain 35% silver. If the mint mark is above the building on the back, it is a war nickel
There are many other factors that will contribute to a coin's value, including, but not limited to, mintage (such as a 1916D Mercury dime). That looks like an amazing score.
Colab with RobFindsTreasure. See if he wants to go over the coins with you.
He really should
Yes!!!! Do this
Finally after Dan losing so much money on these storage lockers, he finally scores a big one!!!
I am a silver stacker, and I didn't go through the whole video calculating the prices, but that box of dime rolls is worth ~$2400+
Yes, just the melt value, right?
@@davidho2977 Uh, it's been a while since I've watched dthis video, I don't remember 😂
I would've loved to find this. I'm early in my coin collecting career and don't have much, and I could've turned the face value coins into unsearched (hopefully) bank boxes and that would've been fun.
I’m a professional coin collector you need to check for errors on the coins or a 1964JFK half dollars because they are 90% silver
Edit:but I don’t think it’s 10k
