I watch it for the info about a particular series he's selling. Tonight was gold double eagles and an in depth segment about the SS Central America and the discovery of the gold. The discoverer Tommy Thompson is currently in jail and due to a lapse of memory, doesn't remember where the gold is, some sources claim he suffers from amnesia. Wonder how much gold was undiscovered and is still off the NC coast? Maybe some was left intentionally? Certainly learned quite a bit about DE's, 3 types of reverses, open and closed 3's, etc.

    I watch the show all the time as I truly enjoy the stories and commentary.

    And at least once a night he has something truly rare and unusual for sale.

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍

    Watched a couple times. He certainly can work magic with mintage figures or pop reports.
    He would make a fine politician in that regard. In most cases his prices are high imo. To each his own

    Like QVC for coins with very high prices.

    It’s Rick Tomaska who has a Home Shopping Network style TV show. I’ve watched it and I agree that his background stories and history of each series are entertaining. The coin prices aren’t good deals.

    That should tell you all you need to know.

    Edit: Maybe I missed something as well, just hopped on my phone to check and I could watch his videos on youtube no problem

    Collector, occasional seller

    Are you sure I just went to their page and able to watch videos without paying, but I know very little about youtube, so maybe I missed it.

    I think his hype of modern rarities goes too far.

    Successful BST deals with mustangt and jesbroken. Now EVERYTHING is for sale.
