Ep.10 – Valuable Coin Varieties: Registry Set Secrets w/Jadon Dannehl #numismatics #coincollecting

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Hey, folks. Welcome back to another episode of the KAPTCoins Podcast. I'm excited about today's podcast because this is the first guest that we have, which is just a true bonafide collector of US coins. So Jaden Danell, welcome to the podcast. Tell us a little bit about yourself and what got you into coin collecting.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. I started off getting into coin collecting actually initially through metal detecting. I had an aunt and uncle who they had done it in the nineties, early two thousands, and as a kid, I got really interested in that. And when I couldn't find many coins, because I was pretty new to the hobby, I started wanting to buy them instead. So I started going to my local coin store, looking online, and, got really into the Indian head scent series.

Jadon Dannehl:

From there, discovered the flying eagle scent. I was just blown away by the design. I just thought it was so unique, so different, and so short lived, and that kinda slowly spiraled the obsession of searching down all the different varieties and trying to eventually put together a top rated set.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. So Jaden reached out to me through Instagram. I was looking specifically for a guest to talk about PCGS registry sets. So for those who don't know, we're going to take a look a lot about this here just in a second, but PCGS, which is the one of the main grading services and certification services for US coins, they do a particular thing where they have what's known as registry sets and you can take a particular series of US coins and you can build a set and compete against other collectors for coins within that set. You're given awarded points based on the, how like, you know, the quality of the coin, how, whether what the grade is of the coin, you earn more points.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And it's a great way to obviously create some, some competition within the space and for collectors. And it also, I think drives a lot of the market for US coins and specifically for high grade examples. And so dealers and and collectors like to get together at the large major shows and folks like Jaden are walking the floor trying to find the particular coin they need to add to their PCGS registry set in order to increase the overall score of the set. And I wanted to talk specifically to somebody who was in the top five of the registry sets for a particular type of set type of series. And, this is going to be the first of two episodes.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

There was another gentleman who has agreed to do an episode as well. So we're going to do that here in a couple of weeks, but, Jaden reached out and he's built one of the top five finest of all time for the flying eagle scents complete variety set for circulation strikes from 1856 to $18.58. So what got you interested in registry set building? You mentioned a little bit about the coin, but any other particular reason why you chose flying Indian scents? Sorry.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Flying Eagle scents, not flying Indian scents.

Jadon Dannehl:

It's okay. That that's actually common listen. Yeah. Yeah. Specifically with the varieties, I initially started with the set registry.

Jadon Dannehl:

I just was using the PCGS website to add inventory. And from there, that's where I discovered you could actually put together a set. So once I started looking at some of the other sets people have put together, I was really impressed by seeing some of the flying eagle scents. And I noticed that it was somewhat of an unattainable set because there was only 20 in the entire set. And I already recognized so many of the varieties that I had already accumulated just through cherry picking and finding things.

Jadon Dannehl:

So and that really then drove me to go search for the other ones that I didn't have originally.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Interesting. Okay. So, what I want to do is I want to give people kind of an intro or allow them to take a look at this kind of early on. Usually we would talk a little bit more before we get into some of the visuals, but I'm going go ahead and share my screen now. Okay.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So what I'm on here is I'm on the the main page for the Flying Eagle Scents complete variety set circulation strikes. We could actually take a look at what the set is composed of. We'll do that here in just a second. There's 20 required coins for this set. So, I mean, if you guys can see this is kind of like the whole, you know, it's like Pokemon, like collecting them all, like you gotta try to build the entire the entire set.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And so there's an objective here. It's very similar to the old women folders that everybody kind of grew up on having little folders of dimes that they plug into the album and you're trying to complete every single one. This is a similar concept, but it's all digital, it's all on the PCGS website, and there's a lot of there's scoring involved and there's points involved. And so if we looked here, Jaden has Danell's Eagles and this is the number five all time finest from all periods of time collection and set. We also have the current finest kind of going down and it looks like there's 17 sets that are represented here.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Now you've recently just recently, like, retired this set. Correct? And and you took it to auction. Is that right?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. The last of the coins, besides a couple that I hung on to, just closed at Great Collections yesterday.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. How did it do?

Jadon Dannehl:

A few lines of cash. Yes. No. That's a very valid question. Some win some losses.

Jadon Dannehl:

It's that's one thing I wanted to talk about. You know? When you kinda lose somebody in that community who's helping to drive a lot of these auction prices, who's now taking a step back and is in the seller's seat, it's interesting to then see who else is out there trying to put the these together sets together and try to acquire some of these coins. So now that you're moved somebody who is bidding these up to pretty high retail prices, Now, what does the market look like? So I think it was a good indicator of what people still want and what people maybe not be as hot about for that variety sets.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. It's something always to factor in and consider when thinking about what to collect or people ask that question, know, what should I collect? And the best answer to that question is whatever it is that you like. Obviously this particular series, these flying Eagle scents really appeal to you as a collector.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

You love the design. There was a tie in with all of the metal detecting you're doing with finding Indian head scents on your property. And so, but there is that question of, you know, from a financial perspective and investment perspective, what should I collect? What will do well in the long run? And if your particular interests and pursuits are too specific, then you have to think about, how many other people are really collecting this particular thing?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And when there's an auction and people get together to bid up the value of this thing, if I were not to be in on the bidding side, if I were to be on the selling side, then are there going to be enough kind of other participants to help keep the prices to be really strong and really high? And, something kind of to always keep in mind, especially when you get into the really, really high end coins, the $100,000, $200,000, $500,000 coins, million dollar coins. There's a possibility that coin reached that level because yourself and this other person wanted that coin that badly and you kind of kept competing and going back and forth, back and forth. So, when it comes time for you to liquidate that, and if you're not there at the, at the auction table, you know, the question is, you know, who else is, who else is going to be there? And for some series, there's plenty of participants and willing people that want to get a chance to acquire that.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I digressed a little bit. I don't want to steal the thunder here of talking about specifically your set, but it's one of the things to be always thinking about from an investment perspective, market perspective, about selling, selling strategies, kind of that component. So talking about the set composition, would love to take a quick look. So for your set specifically, so there was 20 coins that made up the set. You have various weightings here based upon, I'm assuming the rarity of the particular coin.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So, so walk me through what I'm looking at because the, the, the, the coin was only produced for three years, '56, '57 and '58 and the '56 was mostly a proof issue, but there were some business strikes. Is that right?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. There is a few varieties that are recognized as business strikes. There's a few others too that are recognized by Rick Snow that PCGS doesn't recognize yet. So there is a business strike for the $18.56, and as we can see, that is the highest, weighted coin of the entire set because that coin alone, you know, outpriced the entirety of the set together. So Okay.

Jadon Dannehl:

That one definitely has the highest rating there. And then we can see some other strong weighted ones. We have the $18.57 S7 and we have the $18.58 over 7 S1 as your next highest up for weight.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. And so what am I looking at with these F FS four zero three S7? Is that a, is that a die marriage? Is that, is that correct or, or the special variety? Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Those are, yeah, the FS numbers are relating to the variety numbers And for the four zero two, four zero threes, those are gonna be the the die clashes we can jump into later. But commonly with flying eagle scents and Indian scents, most people readily refer to them by their snow number off of Rick Snows catalogs. That's where we'll see the S1, S2, S3, etcetera. So that's usually in that community, the quicker identifier versus some of the other, cataloging systems.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. And so are the varieties tied to the dyes that were used to produce those coins? All of these different varieties basically are the, the, the breadth of the dyes that were used to produce them?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So yeah, all the S varieties are going to be different dye varieties for that respective year. For example, you can have an 1858 S1, you can have an 1857 S1. Those are both different varieties. So yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

So they're year specific as well. So

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Got it. So, I mean, so what we're talking about here folks is that through the course of minting coins, especially something like pennies since there were millions and millions of them made in order to produce, you know, support commerce. So as they're making all of these coins, as you imagine, the die starts to break down and they eventually need to get another die. So every one of those dies are going to have certain diagnostics, certain characteristics that are ever so slightly different from one diet to the next diet to the next diet.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So when somebody is trying to collect something like flying Eagle scents here and they have like, let's say they have a bucket of them of a 100 of them that they've kind of compiled, which is a lot for flying Eagle scents, but just bear with me for a second. And they have this bucket of a 100 of them and they're flipping, they're looking through them. They may notice that there's particular differences between the exact design from one eighteen fifty seven to another eighteen fifty seven. They, they, they noticed that there's something slightly different about this one and then they find another one that has that unique kind of characteristic. This is a way to kind of catalog or all the different varieties of those dies that were used to produce the coins.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Did I get that right?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yep. That sounds an explanation.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. So, we'll talk here about your particular set and then we'll go into Danelle's Eagles. So, so cool that these guys get to kind of compete and what are we looking at in terms of you have the GPA with top bonuses, GPA weighted. Does this stand for a grade point average? Is that is that the same?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Kind of like a school GPA. What it does is it it's based off the grade of the coin. So obviously, a perfect GPA set would be at 70. I mean, that's impossible for flying eagle cents, obviously.

Jadon Dannehl:

Nothing, I believe, goes above a 66. However so what they do is they'll mix the weighting of the coin with the respective grade. So for example, how we looked at earlier, the $18.56 Flying Eagle cent had a weight of six. So the higher grade you could get that coin, the more impact it has on your overall GPA versus some of the coins have a rating of one, you know, you're just common $18.57 Flying Eagle cent with no varieties, a pretty common coin to get. Really then you're just shooting for a higher grade, but really you want to put the emphasis on the high grade on the coins with the highest, highest weighting so you can affect your GPA.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Okay. So we have a listing here of your, of your coins and it looks like just from a pure grading perspective, I mean, looks like you had a couple MS64s, MS64 with a CAC sticker for the 1857. Is this a particular a special variety or was this basically the standard $18.57 that, you know, myself, I might put in my in my in my inventory or the one that's most most most available?

Jadon Dannehl:

That specific one right there, that one is actually one of the three mule dye clashes. The flying incense variety is kind of broken down, I'd say into three major varieties. You have your mule dye clashes, which are going to be the most prominent and I think visually impressive of the varieties. You have multiple, multiple double diabruses and you also have some repunch dates. So those are going be the main varieties that PCGS recognizes for this specific variety set.

Jadon Dannehl:

So this specific example is a really interesting one. This is a mule obverse die clash with a seeded half dollar. So what happened was back in 1857, a normal die clash, it's when the obverse and the reverse of the dies strike together without a coin in between, leaving an imprint on each respective die. However, somehow there's been some speculation on how, but the obverse die of a ceded half dollar clashed against the obverse die of the $18.57 Flying Eagle cent. So what this does now is leaves the imprint of a Seated Liberty half dollar onto this Flying Eagle cent.

Jadon Dannehl:

And we can see here at first glance, there's some stuff going on. Most prominently, you'll see through the a to a on America, there's a line running through the R I C A there. Yeah. That's gonna be Lady Liberty's arm. Yep.

Jadon Dannehl:

And then you'll see some lines coming off the eagle's most forward most wing, and that's part of the, I believe, her the flag that she's holding up there as well. But, yeah, especially in hand in a mint state example, yeah, you could see kind of the characteristics of a die clash, but obviously one that doesn't, you know, correspond to its normal reverse die.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Interesting. Okay. So just to just to recap real quick. So die clashes, this happens a lot in coins and you'll find them through almost every single series is if there was no planchet, there was no blank that was within the press when the two dies came together to strike the coin, the dies essentially struck one another. And so the image or the design on the obverse die on the front of the coin would wind up imprinted on the die from the reverse of the coin and vice versa.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So it's very well possible. You're looking at a cap bust half dollar and you start to see like, doesn't it look like kind of the shield from the reverse side of this thing? That's a die clash. They're really interesting. They're really kind of cool.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And, know, I recently got a phone call from gentleman who was saying that he had a Lincoln cent where Lincoln was on both sides of the coin, he thought that he just really, really struck it rich, really struck it big. And it was like a $19.72 or something. Lincoln cent, I took a look at it, and it was just an obvious eye clash that occurred. All right. So super interesting, super cool.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

You mentioned a second ago about mules and that would be, this is an example of a mule die clash because the mule aspect is that it comes from two different series, right?

Jadon Dannehl:

Correct. Yeah. Similar, like if you had a mule coin where it had like the obverse of a dime reverse of a cent that's referred to as a mule. These are mule die clashes where you have two completely different host dies that should have never come into contact with each other somehow ended up striking each other. And I believe there's six different mule coins that exist, three of which are on the flying eagle sense.

Jadon Dannehl:

One of them actually you could still find the mirror of their so for the flying eagle sense, we have the one shown here that is die clashed with the seated half dollar. We have a reverse die clash with a seated quarter. And for the seated quarter series, you can actually find the corresponding die clashed to seated quarter, which is a very cool coin. And then the sort of king of the series for the flying eagle sense is the obverse die clash with a $20 gold piece. And that one's the most visually striking with

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay.

Jadon Dannehl:

Lady Liberty's face on the obverse of the flying eagle.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And so do you have one of those

Jadon Dannehl:

I do. That is that is the one coin I did not sell off with my set as well. That's that one's staying with me for quite some time.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. So let's get back and let's see if we can find this thing here. So which one would that be?

Jadon Dannehl:

That would be the s 7 for the $18.57. It's also the highest weighted $18.57 for the series. If we go down a little bit more, it should be with the other that one right there.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yep. Exceedingly rare and high grades. Okay. Perfect. Let's take a look.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. I believe the highest grade in existence for that coin is an AU 58 example. And then there's like, I think a couple of XF forties, and then it's kind of just falls off very quickly from there.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Alright. So where am I looking to start to find the the die clashes?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So this one, it's I'd say out of all the dye clashes, it's definitely the most dramatic and visually striking. Right away off the eagle's beak, yeah, can see Lady Liberty's hair curl coming down there. And if we look at America on the right hand of the coin, you could see Ladies Liberty's chin coming off the tail of the eagle's feathers, and you could see her lips coming up after that as well. And then her nose is kind of running through the M in America.

Jadon Dannehl:

And PCGS has a really good composite image they posted to showing the overlay the $20 gold coin and how it would have looked and been struck.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. I'm definitely gonna try to find a copy of that image and try to kind of bring it up on the screen right here for for folks to, to take a look at that. So this is super weird. So we're talking about a die for a $20 gold piece, a Liberty head $20 double eagle. The die for that somehow clashed with this flying eagle scent die, which is, I mean, one's a large coin, one's a very fairly, you know, very small coin assigned to the penny.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Any speculation? Any possible ideas of how that could occur?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So the original theory that was discussed was someone at the Mint had created these errors intentionally because you had three right away from 1857, all involving the 1857 flying eagle scent. So there was a theory about someone at the Mint in the middle of the night running around and doing things they shouldn't. I think kind of similar to the stories of the eighteen o four Drake Bust Dollar, I think it was, that there was some counterfeit ones made or on Yeah. Not ones that weren't supposed to be getting out.

Jadon Dannehl:

So I think they kind of attributed they thought it might have been the same person. However, people are starting to come to the realization that it might have been just during normal routine dye changes while swapping out the dyes. One could have been left in and then accidentally struck the other. I'm not as familiar with the actual minting process and how they rotated and swapped the dies, but that has kind of been the new widely accepted story of these were just a genuine accidental creation, which I think is a little bit more interesting than an intentional creation. But either way I

Tony Gryckiewicz:

kinda like the idea. I kinda like the story of there being like, you know, Moonshine Mondays and the people at the Mint hung out and they drank quite a bit, and they just made stuff. I don't know.

Jadon Dannehl:

That would have fun. Yeah. Who knows what else is out there waiting to be found Yeah,

Tony Gryckiewicz:

exactly. You remind me of something that I've never been able to really identify or confirm, which was that it was not uncommon for the Mint to create fantasy pieces for people, for collectors who came back and said, hey, I really wanted a Goldberg dollar and I can't find one today. So I think like, you know, years later, they've had they didn't make additional, like, kind of copies or restrikes of that for collectors. Have you ever heard that before?

Jadon Dannehl:

I I know there is some restrikes coins, like, with some of the different large scents, you'll see, like, PCGS holder and they'll say a restrike and they have different die characteristics and some of them aren't as advanced. You know, my my real bread and butter and focus is on the Flying Eagle Scent. So I know there is some stuff I believe that out there, but it's really not my expertise. So I'm sure someone else would be able to weigh in a little bit more on that'd be a whole fun series to jump into. It's just Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

Things like

Tony Gryckiewicz:

would you say this one that we're looking at right now was one of the hardest ones for you to to obtain and find?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So I've been very fortunate to cherry pick some of these in low grades in the past, just because it's a little easier to see in low grades, but it can also be harder to catch at the same time. But this this is definitely the hardest coin to find in high grades just because the absolute highest one there is is an AU 58 example. I don't believe there's any other AU examples, then it goes, I believe there's an XF45, maybe some slightly higher VFs I've seen, but for the most part, you will be very hard pressed to find one of these on the market, anything above maybe a g to g. Those can come up every now and then, and the market has just been really crazy on these pieces as well.

Jadon Dannehl:

PCGS recently published an article I wrote about these pieces and how they've just been really performing well. This is the coin that You wrote I'm your own holding Yes. I did write that recent article on these.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

That's cool. Do you remember when that was published?

Jadon Dannehl:

I believe early May is when that late May was just published. So it was a pretty recent one.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

That's super cool. That's super cool. Jaden mentioned a word at the beginning there, cherry pick. And this is one of the fun aspects of the hobby. This is one of the aspects that can lead to profits for for those that are that know exactly what they're doing.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Cherry picking basically is is that you look through lots and lots and lots of coins. You go to coin shows, you look through kind of inventory, you look through raw coins. This is usually a great place to to cherry pick coins. Something like this, this $18.57 is, this is just a standard flying eagle, you know, not caring about the variety at all, just a 57 flying eagle in this low of a grade. What is it?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Probably a $20 coin, dollars 40 coin?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. This coin, you know, this one is a great VF 20. If you had it in a PCGS holder, maybe a $100, but really you can find a coin like this for 20 to $40. Yeah. Was no variety versus with the variety, you know, I think I paid over well over $2,000 for this coin, and it had previously even sold before for 3,000 before that.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. So all you people that are calling me about those $19.72 Lincoln cents with the special variety you read about on the Internet article, you don't have that one. But what you can do is you can go to a coin show, you can look through all of these old 1857 flying Eagles that are in low grade, can buy for $20 or $40 or whatever the amount was. And you can cherry pick the one that is the special variety and then you can sell it potentially for, sounds like Jayden paid over $2,000 for this particular variety.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So that is an actual, you know, business model or a strategy, not, anyway, I get, I get too many of those phone calls. So, so it's, it's one, it is one of the downsides of, of publishing your, your, your, your number and calling yourself a coin dealer is you get a lot of those types of calls. So I digress, let's get back to more of your, your, your, your set here. So if we're talking about other coins that are kind of the real cream of the crop, or I should say the real highlights of this registry set. What else would you say?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I mean, that one was really, really cool. Else would yeah. Be Another one that was a real highlight.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So the we can just start with the two ones that I kept because I like that. The s 7 was one of the ones I kept just. And then if we go to the eighteen fifty eight mint state 64 down below at the bottom there. Let's see.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

It's little bit of letters. That

Jadon Dannehl:

one there. Okay. So that was probably say that's the only other coin that I actually kept from this entire set. So this coin by itself, you know, it's just a normal high grade mint state flying eagle scent. You know, it doesn't have a high rating because you can find an eighteen fifty eight large letters flying eagle scent pretty readily.

Jadon Dannehl:

However, this coin in particular has such impressive toning that I'd be really hard pressed to find another one nearly this nice. I wanna thank Eric Lindholm. He was the one that sold me this coin, I believe, about a year ago. He's been pretty instrumental on getting me a lot of these flying eagle scents. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

He's a Sublime Sense, I think he is. And Yeah. Sublime Sense. Great guy. He he has been really good on, you know, pointing deals out my way, helping me find some stuff for the set.

Jadon Dannehl:

And yeah. So this one came from him. And tone flying eagle scents, if people don't know, are exceedingly rare. They're almost never come to market. And when they do, they do exceptionally well.

Jadon Dannehl:

So I was really happy to get this one in a non auction house setting. You never really know what the prices could be, but this one has some really nice orange and purple on the reverse kind of that sunset toning and the obverse has got some really bright oranges. So, you know, if it didn't have this color, it would just be your typical high grade flying eagle scent. This one does also CAC certified. If you want to talk a little bit about that, not everybody might not know what CAC stickering is and how that process works.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Well, we just did an episode about CAC stickering, but just as a short review, so this coin is an MS64 according to PCGS. There's a lot of coins that can be graded MS64 because, know, there is a spectrum in terms of the quality at the MS 64 grade. CAC exists in order to basically certify those coins that they believe are on the higher spectrum or the upper end of quality for the stated grade. So, this particular coin, this is an MS 64, and they've put their CAC sticker on the on the the slab, on the plastic slab of the coin, basically to say that this is, in their opinion, one of the the the premium examples for an MS 64 grade. So then they typically bring a higher price and premium within the marketplace.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So this kind of relates to a question I wanted to ask you about strategy and approach with building a collection like this. Did you keep did you what was your kind of your your your strategy about finding these coins? Did you have like a a a plan per se, or was it a little bit more opportunistic? Did you just kind of start going to shows and when you saw a particular variety, you know, you you grabbed it. I mean, you got 20 variety you got 20 coins.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

You got a lot of different varieties. It would be hard for me to keep it in my head like, oh, I've got that one. I don't have this one. So how did how was your what was your approach like in in finding these?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah, this is definitely a really hard series to put together. If enough people had the drive to do it, the, you wouldn't be able to get them all. Cause some of the populations are as low as eight for some of the graded coins. There's a couple of the double dice where there's eight coins, and if all eight are in collector's hands and don't come to the market, there's no way to get it other than an occasional raw cherry pick, which was my initial start off in this series as kind of going through flying eagles, finding some of these varieties raw, getting them graded, and then putting them into the set. So initially, they weren't high grade purchase pieces.

Jadon Dannehl:

But as I started to get really more interested in it, then I started being willing to pay for already found varieties. So really just because of how obscure some of these are and difficult to find, I heavily relied on online sales and auction houses. I constantly have alerts for Heritage, Great Collections, all the major coin auction companies. So I routinely keyword triggers on there for different snow varieties. And then so it's one of those sets is if if you had all the money in the world and you said, I'm gonna buy this set, it would still probably take you a year or more of just waiting for some of these to come to market.

Jadon Dannehl:

And if they don't, then you can't put set together just because

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

Some of the populations are that low and that scarce.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And it sounds like you also you also collaborated and you worked with a dealer like Eric, for example, who helped find some of these coins for you, which is, you know, obviously a really great strategy for anybody out there trying to build an incredible, you know, collection, you know, reaching out and working with a trusted dealer and somebody that has a good eye and knows exactly what you're looking for and so forth, you know, is a, is a big, is a big part of that. Let me ask you, are we looking at this, this set here, we're going to go back and I apologize. My, my internet's a little bit slow while we're doing this recording. So that's why it's taking so long to load. But if there's any of these, which of these did you have the biggest win in terms of it being like a cherry picky situation where, you know, you just happened to stumble upon this really rare variety, looking through low grade flying eagle scents, and then, you know, you end up stumbling upon a really kind of a high end, you know, variety for the sake of your collection.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Cherry picking the mint state ones are definitely a little bit more difficult to do because some of the premiums can be a lot higher, and they are a little bit easier to recognize. For the s seven, the die clash we looked at, that is one I did purchase. However, that is one that I've been able to cherry pick and put into some other people's sets. So I believe some of the other Flying Eagle sets that are registered have some of the coins that I cherry picked, graded, and then ended up reselling as I've upgraded the set and replaced things.

Jadon Dannehl:

However, probably my most exciting cherry pick, we scroll down to the $18.58 over seven, as that is one of the king of the The strong? Yep. The strong. Yeah. So this is the most exciting one that I've been able to cherry pick.

Jadon Dannehl:

And fortunately, I've been able to cherry pick a few of these. There's a few different die characteristics that identify an eighteen fifty eight over seven. However, most collectors want what's referred to as the eighteen fifty eight over seven strong because there's a late die state of this coin where the overdate isn't very apparent. So the key characteristics for identifying an $18.58 or seven, the quickest thing I look to is actually not even at the date, it's at the wing. We can see the overdate at the on the eighth there, but if you have we look up towards the wing, we can see there is a broken wingtip.

Jadon Dannehl:

It is cut off towards the top there, so you can see it's not all the way complete. There's kind of you can see the field starting to peek through on the wingtip. So that's actually a very common hub variety. Many of the different dye varieties will share a broken wingtip. So that's usually a quick identifier when looking through the flying eagle scent series of there might be a potential variety here if you see a broken And I believe on eighteen fifty eight large letters, if it has a broken wingtip, I don't think there's one that isn't an eighteen fifty eight over seven.

Jadon Dannehl:

However, it might be a late dice date where you can't see the overdate, and then the values kinda can plummet pretty quickly. Because most collectors, they want to see if we look at the eight there coming off the top right of the eight, you can see that little line coming up in the field there. Yep. That is the overdate. So that's gonna be the remnant of the seven there.

Jadon Dannehl:

So this is the

Tony Gryckiewicz:

No kidding.

Jadon Dannehl:

1858 over seven. So this is the most sought after variety for the the 1858 year, I would say. And they're pretty difficult to track down in high grades. In your mint state grades, they're going for $10.20, $30,000 on some of the really nice ones. Finding this coin, even if I were to try to get AU, I would still be several thousands dollars versus, you know, this coin graded, I believe this was v f 30 CAC and photo sealed.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. This one, I think I probably paid $20.40 bucks for. So and I've been able to find multiple of these. So these are my favorite ones to cherry pick, and this is where the money can be found is finding Is this one

Tony Gryckiewicz:

of the ones you keep at the auctions?

Jadon Dannehl:

This one, actually, I was gonna hang on to it and keep it just because it's a, you know, a coin as well, and it was a nice grade. Eric is taking this one off my hand, so he's gonna be getting this one. So I'm sending a couple coins his way. So this one, I'm I was sad to let go, but I'm I'm keeping the the better ones in the series that I like.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

But Yeah. Still a Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

A nice coin. Someone's gonna really appreciate this one.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Let's go into a good home. I like Eric quite a bit. Yeah, we we actually we celebrated his birthday at the ANA, at the grading seminar at the the summer seminar in Colorado Springs. It was his birthday and a few of us took him out to dinner and, yeah, he's a great guy, really great guy. I like him a lot.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So let's go back here to the the collection. Let me ask you this question. Have you ever sold one of these coins or sold a coin you loved, but because it didn't quite fit your set goals? So, you know, you were building the set, you had a duplicate or you had a coin that didn't really fit into this particular, at all, but you loved the coin, you still just got rid of it because you were, you know, wanting to put your money towards the other ones or whatever.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. That's an absolutely great question. So one of the first coins we looked at was that mint state 60 four obverse die clash with the seeded half dollar. Okay. That one in the

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yes. 60

Jadon Dannehl:

So prior to that, I could get you a picture and we can put a picture up, but I had a really nice v f 30 or 35. I can't quite remember. CAC, photo sealed. Just nice, perfect brown, low grade coin. It wasn't very expensive, but it just had that perfect eye appeal that you wanna see from some of your lower end coins.

Jadon Dannehl:

And that coin, you know, I didn't really wanna sell it, but because I could get a mint state example like this coin here and really boost the set rating and that this was actually the coin that pushed me to that top five spot. So that was one of the reasons where I really, yeah, drove for this coin because it's a it's a die clash. It has a good weighting, and it was a available mint state coin for not a crazy premium compared to some of the other coins in mint state. So this is one of the ones that I, I believe I won this at Stack Bowers, and this is what pushed me to that top five set. So I I I sold a VF coin that I took out of set.

Jadon Dannehl:

It fit the set, but it didn't fit it to where to be a competitive set. Because to really to be a competitive set with these flying eagles, you need almost everything in mint state with the exception of the coins that just don't exist in mint state. So this was one of the this was one of the coins that I upgraded that I really wish I would have kept it, but it went to a good home of a person who actually all almost all of my duplicate coins are as I've upgraded. He's taken a lot of the lower end ones that are a lot more affordable. He hasn't had a registry yet, but I'm hoping to get him started into one.

Jadon Dannehl:

Where I'll see a lot of my old coins eventually probably come back into the registry at some point.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Nice. I got a great I got a great question here that I I found here for you on this one. So have you formed friendships or rivalries through registry set competition?

Jadon Dannehl:

Unfortunately, not much for face to face rivalries and friendships. I've had some nice messages from some of the people on here, but as you can see, there's not a ton of people competing on the flying eagle variety sets as much. It's one of those ones is you will be there will be the competition manifests itself more so in online auctions where you start seeing things go for even above the published retail guide because you know someone else is Yeah. Trying to put together a set that they might not have published yet, or they might be kind of slowly building in the background before it becomes a published set. So that's really where the rivalry comes in is more on the auction block type of thing.

Jadon Dannehl:

But else has been very supportive. I believe the one of the second highest sets there is the Screaming Eagle collection. I think he posted some nice comments in regards to my set. So everyone for the most part is, I feel, trying to help each other. But at the same time, you know, when those coins do come up, people don't hold back if they can have

Tony Gryckiewicz:

the opportunity to get something they will. Any any scenarios you or any situations you wanna talk about where you were at a show or, you know, scenario with another registry check set collector kinda going head to head for a particular coin that for the set?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Nothing in person where I've encountered that just because these coins are really hard to even find at shows. You're more I feel, to come across a lot of these specific niche varieties in an online marketplace. But there's been coins I've found myself bidding up on great collections or heritage, and I I throw a high bid out just to start thinking I can sit back, just wait for it to sell. No one else is gonna be kind of throwing a bid towards it, and then soon enough, someone snipes it at the last second and outbids me, and I know it was probably somebody that's putting together a set as well.

Jadon Dannehl:

So I think that's really where you're gonna see that where people go head to head. Just because if I already feel myself, I'm paying, you know, retail price for a coin that just because I as a collector, I need to have it, then seeing someone else go and do that as well. And we can even see it through some other auction history. You can almost follow the auction history and realize when collectors for registry sets are trying to get a coin or because what some of the times you'll see one of those coins that is recognized in a registry set, and all of sudden, it way exceeds the price guide. I believe one example on great collections, you have an 1857 Snow One variety.

Jadon Dannehl:

That's the obverse of 1856. It's got the same die characteristics because of '56 we could talk about But it was a coin in, I think, VF '20. It's probably a couple $100 coin and end up, I think, getting close to $500. So almost doubling, you know, it's kind of published price guide value. So that was an instance where I know, hey.

Jadon Dannehl:

The person who acquired this likely was a variety set collector. And sure enough, if we look at, I believe it's Michael Hassler set, that was one of the coins he wanted put in his set. So you do see that competition bring itself up online for sure.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. In my opinion, there's nothing that helps get you out of bed in the morning as like having a nemesis. You gotta if you have somebody that you're competing with by anything, something that definitely motivates you to get out of bed in the morning is to go go compete with the nemesis. Anyways, I don't stop goofing around here.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

No arch villains unfortunately.

Jadon Dannehl:

What's that? I said no no villains are arch enemies unfortunately. It's all pretty pretty nice community. In

Tony Gryckiewicz:

my opinion, everyone needs one. So you were mentioning a second ago about Michael Hassler's Hassler's set. Now you did you want to mention something about Michael? Because you did I think you talked touched on in the previous recording that we had to ditch. He recently passed away.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Right?

Jadon Dannehl:

Correct. And he unfortunately recently passed away. However, I was able to acquire one of the coins in his set. So I don't think he has it registered, unfortunately, But he had an s seven there that unfortunately never quite made the inventory. Otherwise, I think he would have been bumped higher.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. The one that's left empty there. Because previously, the one that I have that we touched on earlier, I won that at Great Collections, but about a year or so ago before I purchased it, it was auctioned on Great Collections, and they tagged it the X Michael Hassler Collection. And that coin ended up selling for triple its kind of published price guide value. And that's one of the things I touched on the article about how a lot of these varieties are way exceeding their published guide for the price guides and how, you know, that that should be updated.

Jadon Dannehl:

So yeah, that coin then ended up in Rick Snow's hands. He had it for a while, and then he put it on great collections, and I was fortunate enough to win it the second time around. So Yeah. That's probably a forever coin for me, unless I can upgrade it. But, a coin like that, almost impossible to upgrade unless one of the crazy ones comes up for auction.

Jadon Dannehl:

And but almost all of those are tied up in some of the different sets here. So as those sets, you know, eventually pass on to new owners, people are kind of know about these coins and are gonna be ready to jump on them when they do become available. Yeah.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah, folks. I mean, if you if you haven't picked up on it yet already, I mean, we're talking I think this is a great opportunity, a great way to to get into collecting in way. And, you know, if you're like me, the whole profit kind of side to the business is really appealing and interesting. This is a there's great opportunities here, folks, because you can go look for these flying eagle scents or another series for that matter. Learn what the varieties are, learn what the special varieties are that do actually really, really well and strong in our auction settings.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Go seek out those varieties, cherry pick them from, you know, from boxes and from display cases and whatever. I mean, we want you to come out to the shows, look through our look through the inventories, try to find the thing that you know, you know, this is actually one of those rare varieties that's gonna bump up somebody's set. I'm gonna go and acquire this thing and I'm gonna throw it into my set or I'm gonna sell it to another collector who's trying to build their set. You know, it's just, you know, there's the big dinging lights here that should be going off for people watching this in terms of a way to get into numismatics and in a way that, you know, you can do well, you know, and take advantage of some opportunity for some profit and so forth. So what else I wanted to ask you?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I wanted to ask you, what advice would Well, before we ask these questions, you mentioned something about a particular variety that you wanted to touch on in a second. Was like the 57 over six or so. What what what just like two minutes ago you mentioned.

Jadon Dannehl:

Oh, yeah. That was a very neat variety. If you want to pull up my registry set here, or we can even look at some of the other sets as well just to see because they got some other nice examples. There's one coin where it's called the obverse of 56. So it's gonna be the snow one.

Jadon Dannehl:

I believe mine was an AU 55. Yep. That one right there. So this is one of the RPDs for the series. And this one really attract repunch date for those who don't know.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Repunch date. Okay.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So what what's really striking about these coins is this specific variety has the same hub details and obverse details of the 1856. So it's referred to as an obverse of 1856. So with this specific variety, they're typically very well struck, and they have the same kind of lettering and the same eagle shape that the 1856 does. Most people won't be able to tell the the difference in the face shape right away.

Jadon Dannehl:

I've gotten to the point. I've looked at thousands upon thousands of flying eagles. If you were to leave off the major die characteristics, and I just looked at the eagle's face, I could tell you right away. Oh, hey. That's an obverse of 56.

Jadon Dannehl:

It's just one of those minute things that you start to recognize right away after staring at so many of these for so long. So the real identifier for this one is gonna be mainly the font choice, but in the date here, in 1857, because there's two different varieties actually for obverses of '56, which is really neat. So if you were a collector who still wanted to get something that was close to a '56, you could get an obverse of '56 s two, where it doesn't have the repunched date, but you still have the same eagle face and the still same font as a '56. So you still kinda get that look of an 1856, but it's still a 57. But for this specific example yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

$50.57 prices are nice.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. Look 56 with a at a 57 price, folks. Anyways. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

Alright. So that's that's how I advertise them when I find them and I want to turn them over to other collectors because it's a great kind of gateway coin. So for this specific example, there's some repunching you you can see in the 8 and the 5, but this is a scarce coin. This is one of the ones that went to great collection. And actually, Eric was one of the ones who won this one, so I'm really excited for him.

Jadon Dannehl:

He's gonna be acquiring this one. But there's believe this one has a population of 20. Believe a mint state 66 example recently sold for about $20,000 cause Woah. They're very well struck. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

For a 57 too. So this variety, 20 about 20, I think, graded, very difficult to come across in high grades.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I I need to start I need to become a flying eagle scent specialist here. I mean, it it sounds like there's huge opportunities.

Jadon Dannehl:

There is huge opportunities, but the it they're rare to come up is the problem. So it's one of those ones you you gotta become an expert, you gotta sit and kind of wait. So I was gonna say that you don't see too many flying eagle scent dealers out there. So most of them are almost always coupled with Indian head scents, and they also do

Tony Gryckiewicz:

the

Jadon Dannehl:

flying eagle scents. I'm kind of that weird outlier. I love Indian scents, but I don't collect them with the same passion I do flying eagles. Like most people are like, oh, you're do Indians after flying eagles? Probably not.

Jadon Dannehl:

They're a great set. There's so many different varieties there too, but they just don't quite have that same appeal to me personally as the flying eagle scent series does.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. It's good to know, man. It's good to know. I I think I'm gonna show you all my Flying Eagle scents from now on.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Get your, get your perspective on them, but, you're gonna know the Yeah. You're gonna know the varieties. And so you're gonna be like, yeah, that's that's just a 57 Tony. That's just a regular 57 set.

Jadon Dannehl:

Well, there's some great regular 50 sevens. If we get a chance, I'd love to show just the plain one I got in my set. I call it plain, but Which one is that? That is gonna be the very top one there in the set. Yes, that one.

Jadon Dannehl:

Okay.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

The 62.

Jadon Dannehl:

If we can pull up a picture of that one here. Just because it is a plain 62, I wanted to get something with a little bit more eye appeal. Yeah. Big time. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

As you can see on this coin, this has some wonderful rainbow toning, which is almost impossible to find on Flying Eagle Scents. And when you do find it, you they carry some heavy, heavy premiums. So almost every coin in my set, I tried to get a CAC sticker on it or that Eagle Eye Photo Seal sticker. For those who don't know, that's Rick Snow's service where it's sort of like CAC for high if he believes that the coin meets the grading criteria, he'll put his sticker on that as well. And he also photographs the coins as well.

Jadon Dannehl:

So it's a nice way if you don't have a coin that's been true viewed by PCGS, you can get a really nice high resolution photo of it. So this is a PCGS true view picture, obviously. But because it was just a normal 1857, most people try to fill just a they just try to get a really high grade example of this coin. That's where you'll see people put a mint state 65 or a 66 in. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

You can get a 65, $3, 66, you're 8 to 10, typically. But while this coin isn't a a very high grade, this is a mint state 62. I could have easily put a 64 in here. However, this coin just had such great eye appeal with that rainbow toning that Yeah. It really just brought a great look to the set as a whole.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. So this coin, I did unfortunately sell this one. You know, it's one of the ones I was really on the fence about, but I really just wanted to see what the market looked like more than anything. So it was almost Okay. A test for me too, just kinda see how it would perform and kinda start to understand the market for toned flyers Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

Mean the auction style setting.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

You know, sometimes with coins, it's it's not all about the grade. It's not all about the numerical grade on the, on the slab. I appeal and other characteristics that make a coin special can also be extremely important for having a place in a collector's heart. I recently sold a Cat Bust Half. It was featured in my previous episode, eight fifty five.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

And I thought that coin was just really, really nice and special. I kind of continuing to think about it after it's already in the mail to to the collector who bought it for me. But, you know, stuff like that. It's not the highest graded coin. It's not the the most expensive coin that that I've ever, you know, transacted and owned, but it was a very, very nice coin.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So what advice would you give someone who's thinking about starting their first registry set?

Jadon Dannehl:

I would say if you're just getting started out, buy what you like and what you would be proud to display. So the big point, at least that draws me to registry set, is this is now a public viewing of my collection. That was one of the things that really drew me to it is finding coins that had great photos already. Was it huge? Like, you know, PCS TrueViews on those?

Jadon Dannehl:

Is it different? No one wants to look at your registry set with no pictures. You know? So Yeah. Find coins you like.

Jadon Dannehl:

Find coins with good photographs. If it isn't photographed, you can get it reholedered and photographed. PCGS is really good about that for really inexpensive. I do that a lot for other people where I'll send them older slabs to go get rephotoed. And but really get stuff that you enjoy looking at at the end of the day.

Jadon Dannehl:

I mean, this is gonna be for your set. Focus on the competition part later. There's stuff I know I've replaced that I probably even liked better even though it was less money, but just for the competition side of things. But if you're just getting started, just get what you like and really, I'd say focus on stuff you'd be proud to show other people. Because really, that's what your registry set, I feel, as far as competing and showing off the hard work you've put into something.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. I think it's a really fair point. If you would like to display your collection, this is a fantastic way for you to do so. You're gonna have your name or some kind of a moniker or whatever that is associated with your particular set. You get a chance to of course compete and everyone can see what, what, you know, what the, the, the grade of the examples are that you acquired for your particular set.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

But then you also get to display your set publicly for anybody that wants to go and look and see this is the stuff that Jaden found and put together and acquired and traded and you know, whatever he put together. So, know, pick something, pick a particular series that you feel really passionate about, but, but also one that you would love to pursue this type of pursuit for, you know, you'd like to pursue this type of thing to, to do with, you know, from a, from a collecting perspective. Do you fear do you see yourself expanding into other sets once this set is completed? Well, you retire the set. The set went to auction with the exception of a few few items.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Do you see yourself expanding into other sets? You know, what's next for you for as a collector?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. I've always been a little bit all over the place as a collector. Most people knew me previously as collecting a lot of counter stamp tokens, just collecting a lot of unique things, and that's really what I would like. I I do kinda wanna go back into just more type stuff again and not be as limited not limited might not be the best choice of words, but just feel like I'm free to open and just buy other unique coins when I see them. Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

One of the sides of downsides about a registry, you know, especially if you're someone who's working on a budget, is if you throw kind of all your funds just to work on the registry, when you see some other really nice coins come up for sale just to tell myself I shouldn't purchase that right now because I have a focus thing I'm doing. That's kind of one of the things I missed. So there's, for example, there's some some really nice flowing hair dollars and half dollars I've seen come up for sale that that's one of the dream coins I would love to own. I've had some low grade half dollars in the past, but I haven't had anything, you know, like a really nice, like VF 20 CAC flowing hair dollar, I think would be like a dream coin. So it's one of those ones that's, you know, after liquidating the set, I now have that flexibility where if I see stuff that just catches my eye, I have that opportunity to pick it up.

Jadon Dannehl:

So that's probably where I see myself for collecting now is kind of just waiting to find those coins that just have that that eye appeal, kind of like on that cap you were talking about. Just every now and then, you'll see a coin. It doesn't have to be a high grade that just is really striking visually. And it's coins like that that I think you're gonna start seeing people really go after. It's not gonna be necessarily the grade on the holder, but it's gonna be just how does the coin speak to you?

Jadon Dannehl:

How does it look? And so that's that's really where I want to just just have that flexibility again. But Yeah. We will see. I got a wedding coming up, so I'm sure some of the funds will be appropriated to that.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Your wedding, I'm assuming?

Jadon Dannehl:

Correct. Yes.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay. Well, congratulations. Absolutely. I specialize in offering liquidity to people who need money at the so if you want to sell any coins, reach out to me. But how do you think registry set building will evolve over the next ten to twenty years?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

You know, and so I guess what I want to ask with this particular question is, you know, you've pursued building registry set, are there some things that you would offer as feedback to PCGS or that you'd like to see changes take place within this registry set thing? You know, moving forward, do you have any feedback? Then secondarily, I mean, how just do you see, you know, forward looking next ten, twenty years? How do you how do you see this whole thing evolving with what we do here?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah, absolutely. One of the things I really would like to see it is just get a little bit more attention. I feel like registry sets are kind of often overlooked. And I think it provides the ability for people not only to showcase their collection, but to the network with other high end collectors who can then help people. So, like, you know, I'm along the younger side of collecting some of the people with the highest rating sets.

Jadon Dannehl:

They've been at this, you know, thirty, forty years longer than I've been alive. So I would like to see it used as a way to kind of build up the community to start encouraging some of these younger collectors to start putting together some of these, you know, future legacy collections that are gonna be very noteworthy and famous in the future kind of as a a gateway to that. So I would like to see it get a little bit more attention and evolve as a way to kind of bridge between those two people because you don't necessarily have to be an older person with tons of money to build a high rated set. So, you know, I was fortunate enough to hit top five, and that was while, you know, going to school for engineering, being pretty broke, but by knowing what to look for and flipping things here and there, I was able to do that. So but if there is a way, you know, I could have used the registry set to help network more with some of these older collectors who, as they upgrade their sets, might be able to pass down some of the things too, I think that would be an extremely helpful direction to go.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. And obviously, for folks that wanna network a bit, I mean, is a great place for it

Jadon Dannehl:

to do absolutely.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

So speaking of where can people, if they want to connect with you, they want to ask your opinion, advice about building their registry set or talk about in Flying Eagle Sense specifically, how can people find you and connect with you?

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Abs so one of the great things actually about the PCGS registry set is your email can be tagged on there, and there's there's a a link, I believe, to contact people. I know it's somewhere on there when you open up, like yeah. You can see the email icon, like, say, like, next to docs eagles there. There's an email.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Okay.

Jadon Dannehl:

You know? So it doesn't look like mine's published. But if you wanna find me specifically, I'm on Instagram, Danell's coins. I'm on Facebook just as Jaden Danelle, my name on the screen there.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah.

Jadon Dannehl:

So that's a great way to get ahold of me. I'm always really happy to answer people's questions about flying eagles. Most people now, they see a flying eagle. They tag me on it. They send me stuff all the time.

Jadon Dannehl:

So it's been nice to be able to do that. And then kinda touching back to the registry sets, one of the other really nice things about it is to kinda get some not accreditation, but just kinda some validity of yourself as a collector, like, in people kinda start to respect you a little bit more and realize this person knows what they talk about. You have some credibility when you answer some questions that people ask you about, you know, flying eagles. You know? Mhmm.

Jadon Dannehl:

Because they they said, well, if you put together one of the highest rated sets, you likely know what you're looking for to just be able to do that. So that was been one of the nice things to kinda be taken a little bit more seriously in the community as a collector and, you know, sometimes buyer and seller, but really just a collector at heart. So that's definitely, I think, one of the most rewarding things for me is just to kinda be brought into the community a little bit more seriously and kind of even taking myself a little bit more seriously about how I go about collecting coins and buying and selling with other people as well.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Yeah. Yeah. Well, hey, man. I mean, I think your expertise is shining right through. It's been fantastic talking to you.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

For our collectors out there, the people that are still watching the video at this point, what I would love you guys to do is obviously to like, share, subscribe, do all those types of things. But also comment below, tell us if you guys have a registry set, mark it in the comments below, tell people how they can find your registry set, how they can go and search your particular thing, or just comment, you know, what is it a set that you'd like to be able to build one day? What interests you the most? What is the series that you're trying to you're in process currently of building for the PCGS registry? That would certainly be something that I I would be interested.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I'm sure Jayden as well to take a look in the comments later on. So, hey, man. Thank you so much for doing this. Absolutely. I hope to connect with you again in in in the future.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

What is what is do you go to any major shows? Can I look forward to running running into you at all?

Jadon Dannehl:

For the most part, I've been mainly my presence has been online, just finishing up school for engineering. The budget to travel to shows just hasn't been there. But once the wedding stuff calms down, I'm really hoping to be full force starting to go to some of the shows, meet all the people I've been communicating with online for, you know, the last decade. So Yeah. It'd I can't wait to start putting faces to names and getting more involved.

Jadon Dannehl:

So I definitely won't be going even though the set's retiring, I'm I'm not going anywhere.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Awesome. Alright, man. Again, have a good one. And if I don't talk to you, you know, happy wedding. What did they say?

Tony Gryckiewicz:

I guess congratulations.

Jadon Dannehl:

Yeah. Thank you.

Tony Gryckiewicz:

Alright, man. Sounds good. I will I'll talk to you later. Thank you.

Jadon Dannehl:

Alright. Sounds good. Talk to you later.
