Come on America – Join the Hunt!

We are American Treasures, my partner and I are putting the finishing touches on our book and we need your help re-discovering treasure to shoot a television pilot for American Treasures - The Next Big Hunt…Our book details what treasure is, what to do with it when you find it, how to process, protect and maximize the value of your treasure – and our TV show will do all of that directly with YOU to showcase your finds to the whole world – we will put you on TV – to tell both your story and the story of your treasure as we walk your treasure through the whole process – start to finish – which may also make you very, VERY RICH converting your old treasures into modern day Benjamin’s!

Think of a cross between Antiques Roadshow, American Pickers, Curse of Oak Island, Pawn Stars and Chasing Cars all rolled up into a show where all of you are the Treasure Hunters. If you have treasures that you would like us to take a look at – please bring them out to the Long Beach Coin, Currency, Stamp & Sports Collectible Expo – Booth 635 or reach out https://americantreasure.biz/ - cbtazman@americantreasure.biz

For fun we will be displaying some terrific treasures featured in the book, like an entire Morgan Silver Dollar date set comprised of high mint state PCGS graded coins in First Generation 1.2 Rattler holders fittingly housed in a late 80’s Zippo lighter rotating case. For Treasures within treasures right out of our chapter “A Case for the Case” we will be displaying a museum of PCGS and NGC early holders featuring White Rattlers gen 1.0, 1.1 and many 1.2 green rattlers alongside NGC Black insert gen 1.0, White label 2.1, and White label 2.0 coins.

Of course we will have sports, music, movie and other treasures on display and for sale. But our main purpose is to review your treasures for possible inclusion in our Television Program and to direct to the right dealer should you want to sell your treasures at the show. Call 833-746-2646

Will the plastic treasure be for sale??

We will have many of the spares from the Rhumba date set of Morgan dollars in Rattler Holders for sale - with one of the toughest dates to find in a first gen holder being this coin - which has since received a green CAC sticker (not shown in this shot)

Our plan is to co-market coins featured in the book with the auction houses to promote both the book and the TV show at the same time - so eventually - most all of the coins will be sold at auction including several white rattlers, early gen NGC holders and the entire Rhumba date set of Morgan's in First Gen Rattler holders. Thanks for asking and thanks for all of your help!

Thank you Errors on Coins - those are perfect examples of Treasures within Treasures that many collectors are passionate about. We will certainly keep you in mind for future displays. @ErrorsOnCoins

There have been several rare U.S. coins discovered over the last few years....they would make interesting stories. Cheers, RickO

Interesting concept, I look forward to the show. Make sure it’s on a channel I already get. 😅

Question about the Rattlers you are displaying. Isn’t holder variety a bit deep in the weeds for a TV show?

cbtazman

@savitale Yes you are correct - Rattlers or even White rattlers and gen 1 black insert NGC holders are actually highlighted in our American Treasures book - in a chapter called "A Case for the Case" - where we call coins in these holders a Treasure within a Treasure within a Treasure - kind of breaking the third wall in Hollywood lingo. What is fascinating about these is how passionate the collector groups are about these and how much the prices for them are higher than similar graded coins in modern holders. Our book also covers a scientific experiment (as best as we could) involving 101 PCGS Rattler Morgan's and 12 NGC Old Fatty Morgan's to prove or disprove a few of the urban myths surrounding the early days of grading. We hope to have the book out before the end of 2nd quarter this year! - We need lots of newly discovered treasures to fuel the TV show and Treasure takes time to process - so we need all of your help spreading the word and sending folks to - https://americantreasure.biz/ - cbtazman@americantreasure.biz

Thank you to all who came out to the Long Beach Show - Our Museum of holder display was a big hit and it grew by a couple of coins - Please keep looking for Treasure there is a lot of it out there
