Exceptionally rare pump-handle in window DDR of the Homestead quarter. This will bring about $500-$700 on eBay if you manage to locate one and get it slabbed & graded.
I’m going to give you a short and limited rundown of the offerings in our necklace & earring department today — you can see it all at the gallery, and there are EIGHT coin merchants now operating in the gallery.
What the customer gets is a perfect U.S. State, Territorial or America the Beautiful Quarter in a sterling silver bezel, contained in a double-bag marketing package, ready to hang on your Master Pegboard.
Each Pegboard can have, and should have, its own theme or common thread, such as “Water” or “Birds” or “Travel” or “Love & Romance” or “Revolutionary War” or “Civil War” or “Protected Environments”, and so forth — the choices are far & wide, and the selection process down to “What Pegboards Will I Bring to the Fair???” is worth the time & effort.
A Pegboard can be framed, generally a 16″x20″ will do, and the frame will soon get dinged, so don’t worry about putting a used frame on it, just get it up there. In a shop, people will not be so forgiving, and there, you’d be well-served to put a new prettier frame around it.
Your Pegboards can also be mounted on an easel, or built onto a commercial stand, or put up a dozen different ways, and you can use the rotating merchandising trees on a counter-top or table to supplement the wall displays.
Let’s examine the result of your coin searches:
You now have a back supply of “Worthy” coins, coins that are DNM, or “Damn Near Mint”, which have been plucked from the Karmic Wheel of Death & Rebirth, meaning “Circulation”, and they now appear dressed in their new raiment of clear bags, which are now displayed attractively on the Pegboard racks.
Okay, so what is the customer supposed to do?
- First of all, you have the SUBJECTS of the coins separated, and the coins arranged by said subjects.
- Secondly, you’ve arranged the coins so that the customer can easily see them and decide which one or several to have you mount into a piece of jewelry.
- Thirdly, you have a display that shows the customer what the product will look like, except that his or her coin selection may be different than the one on display.
- Fourthly, you have communicated to the customer what’s on each of these coins, which supposes that you yourself actually have looked at them and absorbed what you saw on and in each coin in the series. In short, you know your stock.
- Fifthly, you are able to take the coin from Pegboard Rack to Jewelry Bench to Customer’s neck, ears or shopping bag.
The real stock, your real strong suit, is the back-stock, the pile of “ready” coins you have in reserve back home.
The meat and potatoes of the enterprise is the packaged coin display on the Pegboard and the finished jewelry display on the mannequin bust on the table or pedestal next to the Table Display, which consists of one glass-topped aluminum “Carryall” jewelry display case, in which you have all your prepared “ready to go” jewelry.
Keep in mind that you can easily replace any coin in any item with the simple turn of a miniature screwdriver, the use of which you have presumably previously mastered.
It’s a skill, that simple mounting of a coin into a bezel. Seems like nothing, no big deal, but wait ’til you see how many ways people can bung it up, including you.
There’s a definite “Right Action” way to mount a coin into a bezel, and it includes being careful to only touch the coin on the edge, and to secure it snugly, but not overtightly, into the bezel, without destroying the screw mechanism in the process, something all-too-common in the beginner.
So your actual offering is a combination of pendant and earrings, with hundreds of scenic subjects and dozens of different combinations, including the use of “Dime” earrings, which can manifest as solid silver “Mercury” dimes, or business strike alloy, or special edition .900 fine silver coins as well.
Anything the size of a dime will fit into a dime-sized locket, and that goes for quarters, too. The only problem is going to be to get across what choices there are, and getting the customer to make a decision to buy and then to decide what specific coin he or she wants mounted in a bezel.
Don’t forget that this is the crux of the issue — you can’t get anything remotely LIKE $39.95 from a raw coin, unless it’s a Mint Error, in which case, the sky can be the limit.
The fact is, you’re selling pendants and earrings, not coins. The coins are free, and you don’t sell them in the raw — they’re all intended for application, either in a piece of sterling silver or 14k gold jewelry, or in a protective archival acrylic capsule as a highly collectible pocket charm.
FURTHER ADO
With further ado, and we have plenty of that on hand, let’s take a look at exactly what it is we are offering here, making the assumption that the coins will be of the highest quality possible, meaning MS-60 or better.
AU-57 is too low. It’s got to be Mint State, period.
That means no dents, no dings, no buffs, no scratches, no scrapes, no thumbprints, no stains and no wear & tear.
In short, the coin looks as if it just popped out of the stamper at the U.S. Mint.
By the way, let’s take a look at the U.S. Mint for a moment. Let us not forget that collecting U.S. coins is part of the heritage of U.S. Mints — they make a TON of coins that are intended ONLY for collecting, not at all for business exchange.
I specialize in collecting IN-CIRCULATION coins, coins that can be obtained at “Face Value” at any bank, at least until the banks are closed by Trump, to secure his victory as world dictator, which is scheduled for this coming mid-term election year, when he decides he can’t afford to lose the House, which is the party to whom he’ll have to answer when he’s being impeached again.
Yes, again.
This happens the same, every time. Haven’t you been paying attention? It’s always like this before you get past the Minions into Baal’s Throne Room.
By the way, has it yet occurred to you that when you search quarters, it’s kind of a “Coin Safari”?
You’re hunting for the “right” coins, and you’re doing the taxidermy work, too, by strapping them into a bezel to become a pendant or an earring.
Heavy?
No, he’s not heavy, he’s my Buddha.
What I mean is, the alloy quarters are much, much lighter than the silver coins. Silver is almost as heavy as gold, volume for volume, but the alloy is light as a feather, and you’ll have no trouble wearing them all day.
These glittery coins are visually fascinating, and have a story to tell.
The quarters show large and dramatic, and the dimes are elegant, cute and dainty. Between the two, you’ll have a fantastic wardrobe of multiple significances, with many scenes containing images of the actual StarGate Portal, such as the Chaco Culture quarter, and the Grand Canyon quarter, or the Gettysburg quarter.
Gettysburg is the most haunted place in America.
When I worked as a trail guide on the Arrowhead Trail, I always managed to take my clients through the best-known battlefields of Gettysburg, and almost everyone who came through that experience also picked up images from having lived and died at Gettysburg.
Don’t worry, if you missed the First American Civil War, you’ll be in plenty of time for the Second Civil War, if Donald Trump has anything to say about it.
I love Civil Wars, precisely because a civil war is an oxymoron, an absurdity — it just can’t happen. Most wars are downright rude.
The First Really Rude War? Rude War II??? But then, ALL wars are rude, so there’d be no way to distinguish one from the other by name alone.
Have you ever tracked human warfare?
It is a proven fact that there has never been a single day without there being a war somewhere among the human population.
We can go pretty far back on that one, although the so-called “Creationists” — also known as “Pro-Life” although they kill animals rather casually, and force kids to attend Sunday School for brainwashing & popularity — won’t let us go any further back than 4004 B.C., and that’s not nearly far enough back in time to account for most of what’s happening today.
In short, the Creationists are right, the universe is much younger than anyone thought, but who knew it was only a few seconds old?
That’s right — the entire universe is about 9 feet in diameter, and the time-loop is currently set at 60 cycles per second, which is pretty doggone fast, in my far-too-humble opinion.
Okay, now that we’ve established who and what and where we are, let’s get to the business end of the reality-spectrum, shall we?
As I said before, here’s a rundown of what we offer. Keep in mind that there are many images from which to choose, and that those images were selected by committee, which guarantees popularity.
It’s up to you to provide the rest — a GREAT coin and a GREAT story to go with it.
Wait a minute — what story?
Jesus, have you not been paying attention the past several centuries?
Every coin has a story to tell — it’s got an image on it, and that has its own story, and then there’s the coin’s personal story, the history of its passage from mint to your work bench and on to its mission or assignment on Planet Earth.
You’re putting these coins to work.
Their ordinary fate would be that of a commercial coin. You have put them to work in a special spiritual way.
Of course the coin is the CONNECTOR to the Being you’re helping, just as a personal object or picture might be used in a seance, to connect with a particular spirit in the Afterlife.
In my case, when I tried to contact my Uncle Frank who used to work as a waiter at Lindy’s Delicatessen and was now enjoying a few days off in the Afterlife, he wasn’t able to get any closer than 25 feet away, because it wasn’t his table.
Habits will carry you through, to the usual place.
Want a different place? Change your stupid habits.
Change your habits to those which will bring you to the Chosen Place — hopefully it will be a Work Station, and only you can make it so.
Nobody can do it for you, although most people are trained to believe that someone special to whom you send money can do it for you.
You gotta do it for yourself.
One big head start foot in the right direction is to set up a Coinology Booth with a Pegboard and a Display Bust that shows off the pendant and earrings — mine is the black velvet variety, but there are many display systems and you’re welcome to investigate all of them.
You can start out with just the Pegboard and Display Bust, and ship all products after the fair or event, which eliminates the need for a table, or you can put in a table, glass-topped Jewelry Display Case and Display Bust, allowing a little space to put the bezel on the coin, or using a second smaller table in the back of the booth for your jewelry work.
I did promise you a rundown of the product, and I’ve not forgotten that pledge — here it is:
Charter Oak, Connecticut. The oak tree has many connotations in American history, but it also has Druid connections and connections with the Ancient Mysteries. Spirits of the tree and Guardians are also associated with the Oaken Tree. The World-Tree connects the lower and higher and forms a pathway to the stars.
Figure of Liberty Imbued with Virtue and Independence is on the 1999 Pennsylvania — “Penn’s Forest” — quarter. “Sylvan” means “Trees” or “Woodsy”, and where there are trees, you will find woodsy spirits and gathering places for Electrical Beings.
Additionally, “Liberty” assures the Four Freedoms guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution:
- FREEDOM OF SPEECH
- FREEDOM OF WORSHIP
- FREEDOM FROM WANT
- FREEDOM FROM FEAR
It’s the last of these that people miss the most in Trumpworld, although they are all now in clear and present danger.
The 1999 “Georgia Peach” is a stunningly beautiful design, with the round thing in the center and the budding leaves surrounding, withal, espousing “Wisdom”, “Justice” and “Moderation” — the last of which is my cup of tea, as in, “Just … just … just take it easy”, a great coin to carry or wear to avoid conflict, connects quite well to the “Omphalos” or “Navel of the World” — planetary belly-button, as it were, of the Ancients, notably the Oracle at Delphi, also a good connection for this coin.
You’ll note that the peach is “clefted”, which of course refers to so many things it’s impossible to list them all, but you can start with anything that has a cleft or is in some way riven, get the idea?
Magical uses and applications are limited only by your ability to observe and objectify.
The 1999 Delaware quarter features “Caesar Rodney” — great for horse-country like ours, this horse & rider can be worth up to $5,000 if you manage to stumble across the variant with the double name “Caesar Rodney”, celebrating his famous nightride through a powerful storm in order to break the deadlock vote on American Independence on the night of July 1, 1776, arriving in Philadelphia to vote in favor of the resolution.
This is a terrific coin for horse-lovers, but also has a magical purpose to take you through the storm so you can make your mark, enter your plea, do your work, generate peace and freedom throughout the land.
This Year 2000 Virginia Quadricentennial quarter is a profoundly great coin to represent a line of ships in a battle game, and can be used in Tic-Tac-Toe or Checkers as a team. Ideal for a chess set — these can be the pawns of a naval battle chess set, or include forts and scouts, and create a full battle chess game scenario.
This West Virginia Bridge at New River Gorge is an amazing coin in and of itself, but it carries all sorts of magical and quantum entanglements, among which is “Connection” and “Traversing”, but also “Overcoming” and is a powerful deterrent to bullying.
One important factoid while searching for this coin is that there is a very valuable Doubled Die Reverse in which the words “New River Gorge” are quite strongly and clearly doubled, making it easy to spot, albeit somewhat on the rare side.
Here’s an example off eBay of an MS-67 in a flip, selling for an EASY $25!!!
I’m telling you, if you have the eye for it, you can turn upwards of $1,000 a night searching State, Park & America the Beautiful quarters!!!
I get a yield of about 100 “perfect” MS-65 or better coins from a bank box of 2,000. If your standards are slightly lower, you can triple that yield.
I never relax my standards, which are entirely objective, based on strict rules and regulation.
My coins are ALWAYS perfect, totally perfect, or your money back.
I make SOME small exceptions in the case of very, very rare coins, and state that the grade is lower, when and where appropriate, although the cases of exceptions are unusual — mostly I rely on luck to find the perfect coin.
Error coins are the best grade I can manage, but I have ZERO control over grade when it comes to error coins.
I have several error quarters if anyone’s interested, and there are a number of slabbed “Remote Healing Power Slabs”, MS-66, 67 & 68, available.
In my experience, in general, the higher the grade coin, the clearer the image, the better the duplication and therefore the quantum entanglement, “Like Affects Like”, Second Law principle.
I have a number of “Remote Healing” slabs priced at only $50, although there are some much higher, with grades at MS69 — no 70 has turned up yet, but I’m hoping.
A tough one to find, American Samoa celebrates the American Dream of holding territory all over the world, which we can do because WE have a flag!
If you want more than one of these, you’ll have to wait — they don’t turn up often, and when they do, they’re spoken for, so get in line.
I do take requests and will find coins at whatever grade you indicate, plus I’ll have them slabbed and graded for you as well, starting at $50 per coin, depending on the coin — I have to pay based on the value of the coin, so you get charged accordingly.
The double keyboard error on the Duke Ellington quarter will bring somewhere around $400-$500 in good shape, and more in excellent condition, the higher the better.
If you can’t find the double die reverse DDR error, no problem — make earrings out of them, pendants out of some more of them, and sell them to musically inclined jazz fans, and do the same with the Nashville “Grand Ol’ Opry” quarter as well.
You’ll find dozens of great images to play with, and every one of them yields to the PSL Technique, so use it freely — “What do you see? What do you know? What’s The Story?”
I have high-grade examples of all dates and variants, just let me know what you need in the way of coins and merchandising supplies — I’ll either get them for you or tell you where to find them.
The object is NOT about money — it’s about spreading Coinology and getting people to do their own coin searches, their own Soul Rescue Party.
Don’t overlook the healing aspects of the “Deflectors”, those coins packed in slabs — they are high-grade and can be effectively employed in all manner of healing circles and medicine wheel rituals.
If you want more info on what’s available, get the MEGA RED COIN BOOK 2018 and review all the state, park and America quarters — you’ll be amazed, surprised and excited, I guarantee it.
When you’re ready to get started, $300 gets you going, with a full display rack of 100 fabulous coins, all ready to be packed into sterling silver lockets and earring bezels.
I make six different display racks on Pegboard, each carrying its own special theme, each one designed to be attractive to the greatest number of customers.
It’s EASY to turn your spare time into money, and remember — Coinology is the only world religion that pays off in hard, cold cash!
Get out there and recruit!
The coins in silver lockets sell for around $39.95 apiece, which produces a grand total potential retail of $3,950, almost $4,000, if you manage to sell all 100 items.
Of course, there is the expense of the silver bezel, about $10 for small orders, less for much larger orders of over 100 bezels, and don’t shrug it off — I’m betting that you’ll sell thousands.
You should seriously consider re-ordering when you’ve sold 25% of your backstock.
$300 for the coins ready for sale, plus the display rack, including 20 pegs, pegboard and frame wired for hanging.
$10 each for the sterling silver bezels.
$39.95 retail.
Do the math, then get in touch.
See You At The Top!!!
