I video'ed a coin

Who hosts videos? I used to use Youtube but I can find my old stuff there but no way to upload.
Is there a site that hosts .MOV files?

TIA. :)

    Vimeo worked. I think.

    Still wondering what held this to 64. It's struck well and the luster is great.

    Nice coin. Probably the older holder is part of why it’s a 64 plus CAC likes the coin too.

    CAC doesn't see the coin til it's already graded,

    Nice vid, surprised it did not get a gold bean, did you submit it to CAC?

    I know. I was meaning that CAC also agrees with you that it’s a nice coin for a 64.

    Bought it already stickered. The Pan-Pac is one I always look for. So few are nice.

    Gotcha, if I had sent it in I would have been tempted to resubmit and have a second look to for a gold bean, looks very nice.

    Know what you mean. I prefer a sticker but also from decades of looking at all coins, if one ...stands out.... and is "better" than "usual" I'll take that, too.
    Some issues just run a certain characteristic." When one falls outside that "usuality" (?) I'll look at it very closely.
    My coins *generally
    don't "fit in with the crowd."

    ....................... hmmmmm ......?...... :D

    That coin appears to be very nice.... hard to fully evaluate it from the video of course....likely, between the TPG and CAC the grade is appropriate. Cheers, RickO

    Stills don't show the full luster.

    Scratched holder.

    Beautiful coin.
    Wonder how long it will be until most coin auctions/sales feature these short videos. I've seen them at Heritage for high end coins.

    I've done videos on Instagram for some of my coins and also when I went to shows (remember those?) and viewed coins at various auction like Heritage and Legend. Videos do add another dimension (especially for MS and proof coins) to still shots and at allow you to see the luster.

    Unfortunately for topstuff he was trying to hold the coin still.

    You say the luster looks great and have the advantage of seeing the coin in hand. But from what I can see, the coin looks over-dipped and the luster, rather flat.

    Oh yeah Mr. Feld! What makes you a coin expert? (he what, and then worked for who, then sold how many) never mind.

    As you say, you can't see it "in hand."

    I'm not seeing much cartwheel effect in the video, although that may be (partly) because you're moving the slab in a non-optimal manner to show it.

    The luster coruscates playfully around the design elements, flashing like a bank of strobe lights on Swarovski crystal.

    I could see that in the viewfinder. Texture isn't as simple on a commem as it is on a nice flat Morgan for a real cartwheel effect. The reverse especially fought the camera.
    Oh well, I found an easy video host. :)
