Free Inventory for your Coin Shop

I spoke too soon…or too late. The other day, I warned that serious consequences would happen soon related to the US penny; well, the day is here already, and it’s too late to do anything about it. Here’s what’s actually happening: People are hoarding copper pennies, thinking that the US government will soon authorize their melt-down, and they’re probably right. What that means is that there will be no pennies in circulation before 1982. That’s the functional end of free coin searches. With any luck, you have a maximum of a year, before you can’t experience FREE coin searches anymore. Of course, if you buy a bag of coins at a premium, you can get the experience that way…sort of. Thing is, circulating currency is different from vintage currency that’s supposedly “unsearched”, yet they know which dates they are…hmmmmm…. Anyhow, here’s how you can get FREE inventory for your coin shop, right at your local bank!!!

History + Coins + Children = Winner

Tie History to Coinage and Kids, and you’ve got a winner. Nothing gets a kid’s attention more than an interesting physical object, and if it has definite “street value”, such as a bright, shiny penny, so much the better. In order to teach a child anything, you HAVE TO have his or her attention first, or whatever you think you put into that kid’s brain will NOT BE THERE when you check the contents with a spot-quiz or a verbal test. I can tell you how to teach history and make it stick. Check this out….

Black Bart, Lola Montez, Lotta Crabtree & Empire Mine

 

Lola Montez is probably the most famous of all Grass Valley Nevada City inhabitants past and present, although many of the rich and notorious and famous have come through, including Mark Twain, who stayed at the Holbrooke Hotel, the oldest continuing operation hotel since the Gold Rush. It was built in 1862 — a fortunate date for a coin merchant; 1862 is a common Indian Head Penny date and can be had in nice condition for a song. But let me tell you how to turn this single penny into a small fortune in no time at all…

You Are Losing Your Freedoms

You are losing your freedoms. This is not a political issue. It’s strictly cultural. Very soon now, you won’t be able to engage in Magic Find Coin Searches anymore. I’ll explain why that is at the ICW this weekend, along with exact instructions on how to perform the practice and how to make a fairly good living at it. After several dozen successful trials, I’m totally convinced: a Noob will make $10 or nothing, or even lose money, in a single night of MF (Magic Find) Coin Search. A Novice will “see” slightly more, maybe $25 in a night’s effort. An Adept could go through a box a night, and easily turn $500-$800 from the same number of hours as a Noob put in. A Master will not do it for the money — it will then be strictly “impossible” challenges, such as building a complete set of GEM BU ONLY Lincoln Memorials from a single bank box in a single night. I’ll take that challenge anytime.

Buy Me!!!

How would you like to buy 100+ hours of my unbroken & undivided attention? It suddenly occurred to me as I was working on a Lincoln Memorial set that you might not realize that I have hand-searched every personally searched collection I send out, and that this involves at least a hundred hours of highly focused attention with the additional overlay of my coinology experience and grading skills. I sell my Lincoln Memorial collections on eBay — they typically will go between $300-$400 apiece for the 144 coin set with 1960 and 1960D small dates plus the 1970s small date. Naturally all the 82 series is there as well. Continue reading

Do You Like Surprises?

Do you like surprises? If you do, you’ll enjoy my plan. Most of the very wealthy people I know, including my mother and step-dad who had many millions of dollars, are both bored and boring. What I was looking for was something interesting that transcended all classes and economic levels, something that’s fun for the very rich and yet is accessible to anyone rich or poor. It should also provide an opportunity for the poor to become rich, to satisfy my requirements for a great Work Tool. Read on…

Dreaming Coins

Dreaming Coins can be used both as dream-catchers and within a dreamcatcher array. You can charge up your Dreaming Coin by placing it on the Dreamcatcher Charger while running the appropriate Chargeup Orb. A fully charged Dreaming Coin in a sealed electrostatic acrylic capsule can be placed under the pillow or where that isn’t possible, it can be placed nearby on a small bedside table. Dream Targets can be by date or by association; Laws of Contact & Similarity really apply here! I’ll post a list sometime later today of the Dreaming Coins available.

Using Coins as a Buyer’s Premium

Photo of E.J. Gold by Leon Ames, circa 1972

My friend Leon Ames owned Leon Ames Ford in Los Angeles. His manager, Ralph Williams, bought the dealership and then sold it to his manager, Cal Worthington. I knew them all, and all three of them said the same thing: “Offer a huge stuffed teddy bear and they can’t refuse the deal.”

I have such an item for you; the teddy bear doesn’t work when selling art, but coins will work, because the same people who collect art are aware of the value of coins in a legacy collection. The collection must be very interesting to cause someone to want to buy it. My History Gift Sets are the perfect solution to a Gift Problem! Continue reading

Bonnie & Clyde Historical Coin Set

Bonnie & Clyde Historical Coin Set — $225

Each of the 3 copper Lincoln wheat back Good to Fine pennies in this deluxe presentation set represents one of the figures in the Bonnie & Clyde shootout on May 23, 1934. Bonnie is represented by a 1910 Lincoln Cent, her birth-date. Clyde is represented in the collection by a 1909 Lincoln Cent, its first year of issue and Clyde’s birth-date. Their death-dates are of course the same, 1934. Without teenager Bonnie’s sexy photos, the couple would have been ignored by the press. The pennies are contained in archival capsules and mounted in blue velvet presentation box with slipcase & gold labels. A very fun way to present and preserve history! Makes learning fun! Collect them all!

Introducing “Quantum Contact Coin” Sets

Most folks don’t have coins minted in their honor. I wanted to offer an opportunity to acquire coins of interest to spirit mediums and anyone using the Prosperity Path Oracles or Seances. These coins are associated magically with the individuals by a variety of connections and coupling factors, the most obvious of which is the date of the coin.
