Pawn Stars Strikes again.

I know some of us are Pawn Star Fans. I just checked my Guide and it say they have a new show on tonight and are going to have a "a rare 1715 Escudo Spanish Gold Coin." I hope the guide is correct and I have not made a fool out of myself but it would not be the first time.

Just though I would let the group know for what it is worth.

Oh, History Channel. 9 PM Central. New show.

Thanks for the heads up. I am going to try to watch tonight (10pmEST). TC

 

You are correct. That is what the guide said, 1715 Escudo Spanish Gold Coin.

 

I saw that too. Looking forward to seeing it. Watch it be a counterfeit :/

 

That wouldn't surprise me. Remember the lady with the 1932-S Washington quarter? The mm turned out to have been added on by soldering it?

 

Yup, I remember it

 

Hmmm, just checked my Krause and they don't list 1715 for an escudo, Just 4 and 8 escudos

 

I've already seen it, but I won't give away the ending.

Yep two new episodes tonight, can't wait

 

I was in Las Vegas in January and made it a point to go by their pawn shop. It was much smaller (and more dingy) than it appears in the show. I looked over their numismatic material and found nothing special. And none of the "stars" were there.

The pawn shop is located on Las Vegas Blvd between downtown and the Strip. A tattoo parlor is located across the parking lot. I went to the shop about 6 PM but since it was mid-January it was already dark.

 

Thanks for the notice. I had completely forgotten about it.

 

Its onnnnnnnnnn!!!

 

edit

 

Spoilers! Highlight below if you wanna see the result.

Holy crap, haha, worth $18k, and sold for $11k!

 

because getting 11k is easy money. getting 18k is a hassle. that and the prices given on pawn stars are usually inflated anyways.

 

Ok, was it an 1715 one Escudo?

 

Eight escudo.

 

+1

also, there's a new "american pickers" on right before it, and of course they will rerun everything a couple hours later if you miss it.

 

Does this mean it was genuine and the seller took 11K?

 

I dont get it, when I saw this post I thought you were talking about a new episode. this episode and the pickers and everything else is a rerun at least a year old. even the commercials are reruns. A couple of the channels I see programming from 2008
DISH networks totally sucks, wish I could get my wife to agree.
