The World's Expert on Ancient Coins Talks to John and Ursula about this Incredible Collectible

Thursday, October 22, 2026 • Duration 01:00:15

How do you know if an ancient coin is authentic, what makes it valuable, and how has third-party grading changed the world of coin collecting?

In this episode of the Greysheet Podcast, host John Feigenbaum sits down with world-renowned ancient coin expert David Vagi of NGC and numismatic authority Ursula Kampmann for a fascinating discussion about ancient coins, coin authentication, grading, and the evolution of the global coin market.

David Vagi explains how NGC Ancients developed its unique grading system, evaluating strike quality, surface quality, and wear rather than relying solely on a traditional numerical grade. He also discusses counterfeit detection, the challenges of authenticating ancient coins, and how third-party grading has made ancient coin collecting more accessible to new collectors.

The conversation also explores how the internet, digital photography, and online auctions have transformed the rare coin market, along with the differences between American and European approaches to trust, certification, and collecting.

Plus, John, Ursula, and David debate an important question: Are we protecting coins as valuable collectibles, or preserving them as historical artifacts?

Thursday, October 15, 2026 • Duration 01:09:42

The rare coin market is heating up! Are rare coins becoming one of the most attractive alternative investments, and how will artificial intelligence change the future of coin collecting?

In Part 2 of the Greysheet Market Report, host John Feigenbaum welcomes back John McGrath of Charleston Rare Coin Company for an in-depth discussion about the booming rare coin market, rising CAC premiums, high-end numismatic rarities, and the future of AI coin grading.

After the ANA coin show, McGrath shares his firsthand observations about the growing scarcity of premium-quality coins, surging prices for CAC-approved rarities, and the challenges dealers face finding exceptional inventory. He also reveals an extraordinary acquisition: both known examples of an incredibly rare 1875 gold Liberty Head pattern coin!

In this episode, you'll discover:

🪙 The Rare Coin Market Boom — Why top-quality coins are becoming harder to find and why collectors are paying record premiums for exceptional rarities.

💰 CAC Coins vs. Non-CAC Coins — Why CAC-stickered coins can command dramatically higher prices and how grading, quality, and registry sets influence demand.

📈 Rare Coins as an Investment — Why experienced dealers see opportunities in rare coins as tangible assets, and why research and knowledge remain essential.

Rare & Undervalued? The So-Called Dollars Most Collectors Miss!

Thursday, October 8, 2026 • Duration 45:06

In this episode of the Red Book Podcast, host Jeff Garrett sits down with So-Called Dollar expert and dealer Jeff Shevlin to explore one of the most interesting and overlooked areas of coin collecting.

So-Called Dollars are historically important medals, generally about the size of a silver dollar, that commemorate events in American history. But as Jeff Shevlin explains, these aren't simply ordinary medals—they can feature incredible artwork, famous engravers, fascinating historical stories, extreme rarity, and surprisingly affordable prices.

The conversation covers everything from Augustus Saint-Gaudens and George Morgan to the Erie Canal, World's Fairs, the Columbian Exposition, Fort Sumter, and the Wilson Dollar.

Jeff Garrett and Jeff Shevlin also discuss why grading and population reports have changed the market, how collectors can get started, and why rare So-Called Dollars can offer dramatically more rarity for the money than many expensive U.S. coins.

One incredible example is the 1826 gold Erie Canal medal. Only a handful were struck, with just two known in private collections according to the interview, and examples have sold for tens of thousands of dollars—and as much as $200,000.

You'll also hear about a recently discovered gold Wilson Dollar that reportedly sold for around $35,000, plus strategies for building your own “Box of 20” collection.

Hunter and John also discuss whether certain coins actually need to be graded, including an 1982 Chinese Panda and an 1861-S $2.50 Quarter Eagle, plus the challenges of selling valuable raw coins online.

The conversation then turns to the broader coin market, including rising prices for Walking Liberty Half Dollars, commemorative gold, V-Nickels, Shield Nickels, Liberty Nickels, Indian Cents, Buffalo Nickels, and other circulated and scarce-date coins.

What Are Hobo Nickels? The Fascinating Story Behind These Unique Coins

Thursday, September 24, 2026 • Duration 48:55

What exactly is a Hobo Nickel — and why can some of these carved coins sell for thousands of dollars?

In this episode of the Greysheet Market Report Podcast, John Feigenbaum sits down with longtime collector Candice Kagin to explore the fascinating world of Hobo Nickels — a unique intersection of American history, folk art, and numismatics.

Candice shares the story behind her collection of more than 600 Hobo Nickels, including works attributed to legendary carvers Bert Wiegand and George “Bo” Hughes. She explains how these unusual carved Buffalo Nickels originated, the role they played in Hobo culture, how collectors identify unknown carvers, and what makes certain pieces especially valuable.

The conversation also explores the difference between classic, modern, and contemporary Hobo Nickel carvings, how these coins are authenticated, what collectors should look for, and why the stories behind individual carvings can be just as fascinating as the coins themselves.

Candice is also preparing to sell portions of her collection through multiple auctions, giving collectors an opportunity to own pieces from one of the most unusual areas of American numismatics.
