I’m a coin guy I’m not upset I clean mine I put them in peoples hands… Here … Hold this 1854 half dollar for a while You’ll see … Ohh 😮 man … Like you were there
Comment from : C-130

At -- 107 -- For just one 1964 dime it could be worth 4 figures, esp an error coin Just saying
Comment from : GhostCity Shelton

No it's not legal it is against the law to ruin any us currency and you need map gas propain not right gas
Comment from : Fishing Daily

Need map gas that is the 1st mistake
Comment from : Fishing Daily

Idiot, be expecting a visit from the feds dummy

7:15 that’s a big no captain
Comment from : DBOB

Good test more work needed
Comment from : JAMIE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT

people buy constitutional silver thinking i can always melt it down for the silver , what they dont realize its a pain ita to melt and seperate the metalsif you want that buy 100 silver
Comment from : ridge runner

I'm a big coin guy and that doesn't make me mad it's just a 64 Rosie
Comment from : car crave TV

Copper melts at a higher temp than silver why would you be surprised that the clad coin was harder to melt?
Comment from : Susan Connelly

I have one got it the other day
Comment from : Jose Picos

It’s illegal to destroy US Currency
Comment from : Jaimen Brunson

"do not attempt this at home" meanwhile he's probably at home

3:25 YA THINK!?
Comment from : Frizzy

I wish I can tell you what I brbrthink what you did
Comment from : Maxy Mnbl

I started laughing when he says" Is the even legal?" I don't know why that was so funny to me
Comment from : greg-craig

You ruined the temper in your pliers

Darwin award goes to
Comment from : Dazedandconfused stacker

Has to be a methhead waste of time Unreal
Comment from : Mark Belanger

Melting a 64 dime? You're a monster
Comment from : Kevin Smith

I like coins and i don't see why a lot of these guys get butthurt Anyone with a stash of 90 constitutional coins WANTS them to be melted down It's what's going to be difference between junk silver and a coin with some actual premium
Comment from : MTNTXii

You need a crucible The pliers is a never going to work the way you want
Comment from : Roverman

You could shape it with a hammer at that tempbut you need oxy, acetylene
Comment from : D Day

It's called "defacement of government property" Be careful!
Comment from : Brandon Freer

“It looks like it’s about to drip” brbrbflips upside down, preventing the drip/b brbrMe: NO WHAT ARE YOU DOING STOP MOVING
Comment from : Faith Lewis

holding coin with steel players steal much of the heat from coin before it melts
Comment from : Dave Anderson

Can’t melt nickel in a propane torch, use an oxy-asetline torch
Comment from : Christopher Blackhall

Jd's cryinglol
Comment from : W Diggz

Need map gas
Comment from : SoulSnatcher

Wood bench Not very s m a r t
Comment from : Dazedandconfused stacker

That's US government money you're not allowed to do that But go ahead make a video showing yourself destroying US money
Comment from : Cynthia Ayers

I'm a 34 year old teenager Dont tell me not to try this at home, because the very first thing I'm going to do Hahaha
Comment from : JustForFun77077

Having tried this before myself I can tell you that the Pliers are pulling heat out of the coin if you laid it on something and use the torch it would melt
Comment from : Track pack GT

Poor Silver Makes mine go up in value
Comment from : Tony R

Everytime you pulled the dime out of the torch to play around burnin your table the temp of the dime dropped by 400 degrees 1 second is all it takes to drop it that much
Comment from : Mr Flood

My grandpa melted them down and bought a car
Comment from : 99 Cent

It's a 1964, no harm done Now a barber in somewhat decent shape would hurt my feelings But your property, do as you wish with it It's only making mine that much rarer
Comment from : John Griffiths

Interesting I was trying to do this the other day b4 I saw ur vid but I had a small piece of silver shot😅
Comment from : jj a

You do realize you're destroying (federal) government property?
Comment from : Mista Marvelous

Are you using map gas or propane? The new no lead soldiers require map gas to melt Propane isn’t hot enough
Comment from : Bobby Hollis

It burns off the impurities It you put it in a smelter the impurities would float to the top and the silver would be in the bottom
Comment from : Urban Airgunner

Next time sprinkle borax on it and don't hold with pliers !!
Comment from : IM CIR GOLD

Use a forge
Comment from : Wyatt Rownd

Play this video at 2x speed You can thank me later ;)
Comment from : Fortisimo Fotts

I make rings out of coins
Comment from : Roger Brown

Can I have my time back please zzzz
Comment from : LAWN RESCUE PROPERTY

You better hope the feds don't see your "scientific experiment" your cell mate will be performing a scientific experiment on you asshole
Comment from : Nicholas Worrell

Um, this is NOT legal
Comment from : Noah

Propane is fine, but the hottest part of a propane flame, is after the tip, and slightly past the flame itself I use to work in the welding gas industry, and we had to teach many scrapers how to use propane to cut They treated propane like acetylene and never liked propane That's a huge mistake
Comment from : KM4OOS

Put in a cruible with flux makes a silver ball
Comment from : homeless traveler

Aren't the pliers acting like a heat sink?
Comment from : iweld Alexander

It's not hot enuf ,copper melts at 1984 deg f,silver is like 1771 deg f
Comment from : Joey Frontz

Need to do some research my friend
Comment from : Nacho Dog

I pour a lot of silver using propane and the thing I see here is your pliers are acting as a heat sink of sorts Try a small ceramic crucible and you will get results even with copperCome on over for a visit I show both metals being worked with
Comment from : Tomokos Enterprize

hold it still and it will work faster
Comment from : twobitsmith1

this guy is so stupid
Comment from : joseph overmyer

Is your mother ba Hillary Clinton supporter?/b
Comment from : HerrBall

Graduations you Did a federal offense XD I would so try this but I don't wanna get in trouble :)
Comment from : Wisdom Dragon

wonder what would happen if all of us citizens melted down our change what would happen to the country lol
Comment from : Kirks_CORNER

think this is illegal
Comment from : Kirks_CORNER

Destruction of any American currency is illegal, so with the video self incriminating, the courts have evidence to prosecute if they wanted to!
Comment from : Rusty Marshall

great video really enjoyed
Comment from : TREASURE HUNTING SCOTLAND MUDLARKING ADVENTURES

The copper oxidized that's why the flame was green and it turned out very copper looking I don't think it would do that in a crucible with indirect flame
Comment from : toolofbordem

next time dont hold it in pliers they act as a heat sink
Comment from : Theron Lawson

you won't be able to get the copper out of the silver without acid and the melting point of copper is higher than silver
Comment from : Leto Idaho

The melting temp of silver is close to 2,8 00°F, lead is 2386°F, Silicon is slightly above 1,400°F, i can remember copper, gold, & platinum, but i know that copper is around 447°F, gold 2,900F, platinum above 3,100°F It's been years so i don't remember exact figures, otherwise i would share with you the melting point of those dimes Blue flames are the hottest but the hottest part of every flame is; the tip of the inner cone because it is oxidized to its maxim, & all the heat is directed inward by a turbulence caused by the difference of temperature So like a magnifying glass, heat becomes focused in the tip of the inner cone of the flame Acetylene burns extremely hot, butane does also but not to that temperature, propanes peak burn temp is close to 2,400° F Propane is also the common choise of gas because it doesn't ignite easily You can suffocate a lit cigarette in a propane atmosphere I just thought I'd share a little knowledge - GOD BLESS YOU!
Comment from : Bitchy_ Bitch!

that dark stuff will scrape off revealing shiny silver underneath Buy a crucible for $15 on Ebay, the pliers where sucking all the heat off the melt
Comment from : Silent Hunger

I heard someone say that you can't melt gold leaf (except in something like nitrogen) because it will actually burn before it melts!
Comment from : Chaplain Dave Sparks

You need to use a oxy/acetylene torch , propane is not hot enough
Comment from : lester roberts

NOOOOOOOOO
Comment from : 410shaggy

Putting it in water made it cool way too fast
Comment from : Live w/ Nick

nope it is not sorrybr[]_[]

Comment from : Antonio Garcia

copper has a very high melting point of like 2000 degrees
Comment from : Antonio Garcia

burned the nickel plate
Comment from : Antonio Garcia

did you know that it is illegal to melt modern coins that are still being produced by the mint
Comment from : Antonio Garcia

why are you so cruel to those coins
Comment from : Antonio Garcia

I can't see the boys in the field trying to,use silver for anything It would have had to be a BBBIIIIIIGGGGGGG chunk of silver I am surprise the clad didn't melt more Great experiment and Great video!!!!!!
Comment from : Christie Willey

Well the president has a tumor on his head! And is good at wood burning!!
Comment from : Christie Willey

Hey buddy One more thing This video reminds me of when you used your engraving pen to write your name on our toaster I plan to leave the toaster to you in my will KRH
Comment from : Kentucky Relic Hunter

Hey buddy Interesting, but defacing US currency is a crime KRH
Comment from : Kentucky Relic Hunter

Try a nickel BD!
Comment from : Phoenix

Mapp gas gets hotter than regular propane The cylinder will be yellow instead of blue
Comment from : Tony J

How hot does that torch get!?! That's friggin crazy, didn't melt, must have to be hotterGOOD LUCK! I have this vision of you with some billows and a smelting factoryLOL
Comment from : Anita Jackson

Silver is already gone, note the blue green flame, that is the copper trying to melt
Comment from : Larry Ciarrocchi

here's a nice melting point chart for different metals wwwonlinemetalscom/meltptcfm

Your pliers are acting like a big heat sink
Comment from : Larry Ciarrocchi

hey man do u have a video of how they detonate a civil war cannon ball
Comment from : Gary Nolen

Don't attempt to do this at homebut it's ok in the garage with proper ventilation😀
Comment from : Deepsouthdiggers

shows how much real value our current coins haveCrazy alloy mix that wont melt
Comment from : Rob Nelson

Since copper and clad melt at different temps, could it be the silver that dripped and the copper that remained? IDK I'm wondering now what the different melt temps are for each metal
