    Great learning on the ICG and for people thinking about submitting them. its all an education and the more you know the more you will make down the road... it is always an advantage to know something going in then just buying bullion and sitting back because you can sit for years waiting for bullion but when it comes to numismatics it does take knowledge and why not God gave us all a way to figure out values and learn to make more in life.

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Exactly... that is exactly why i got into numismatics... it continues to keep rising in value, meanwhile my silver and gold stack just sits and goes up and down like the ocean. Happy to jump in and learn numismatics and having fun doing so!

So many people are in this position of stepping into this area with very little knowledge. These kinds of videos will be really helpful to those who are just starting out. Good stuff! Keep Stacking!

  • @tridentstacking
    @tridentstacking ปีที่แล้ว

    My takeaway is ICG is great for a lot of coins just not up for submission to the big guys, but are worth having an expert look at em. Who knows, maybe you submit coins to ICG and you get a straight on a sketchy coin and you can now submit for crossover…
    Good video and information Pirate

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I mean technically if icg straight graded something that shouldn't have been, i think pcgs or ngc would catch that... But I do like confirmation of coin values and them securing the validity of the coin itself. At the $10 price point, i think there's value there...

    • @PirateStacker

  • @YFZMoto
    @YFZMoto ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think it was cool and if you hang on to the coins that cost you more maybe in the future they will break even or make money they don't make these coins anymore so you have that going for you. But over all I think it was worth trying them out.

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Totally a worthwhile experience In my mind. And holding on those "losers" i'm sure would be smart as at some point in time they'll break even or even be profitable... fun stuff!

  • @PistolPackingPilot
    @PistolPackingPilot ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Nice job on the 1857 H10C. Whizzed and scratched? WTF. Okay coin two sucks. Looks like a loss on coin three too at least you got the coin for free. Ooof…. Coin four blows. The 1820 is decent. At least you’re not losing too too much. Haha. Columbia’s expo’s a kick into the balls. Barber details? Ooof! And the hits keep on coming. And coming. And coming. Lol. The best lessons in life are the ones you learn the hard way. Finally a MS! Score! Great video bro. Aargh.

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, a big learning experience without a doubt! But it all feels a little better that at least the pricing was cheap and service was great. I actually think i'll probably use them again in the future! Thanks for watching!

    Hi
    I have to say, ICG grade is better than PCGS, ICG still gives a grade to scratch coins worse than PCGS, not gradable for scratch coin!!
    PCGS damaged my coin and did not give any grade!!??
    I'm very disappointed with my first submission!!?

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว

      I was also pretty disapointed in PCGS. So expensive and bad service too! I also dislike that PCGS & NGC don't give a grade on "details" coins, that's lousy. But Anacs & ICG both will still give a grade. Thanks for watching!

  • @philipraimondo
    @philipraimondo ปีที่แล้ว

    ICG is great. They are hard on their grading and do a great job overall. Randy is their head grader and sits on the board of directors for the ANA. I think they are actually getting harder as well since the last few years they get a bad rap. They are really good for modern coins. They are also great for validating and protecting your coins. Were you at the Collectorama? I usually go to that one twice per year. I was not impressed at the one this summer… It has been great for years. Ill probably give it one more shot in the January show. It is usually a week or two before the FUN show. Cheers!

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So i feel like both ANACS & ICG may actually be grading harder than PCGS now, trying to build back their reputation maybe? I've found they haven't let anything slide! I didn't go to Fun Show this summer, i didn't want to have to fill out my personal info to enter in. We'll see if I make it in the spring or not. Thanks for watching!

    • @PirateStacker
      @PirateStacker  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The issue is that it's a $60 coin in a pcgs holder... Not worth any resubmitting really, doubtful i'd get $30 - $40 more for it in a pcgs holder than what it currently is being that cheap. It's a nice coin though!
