YouTube series for new collectors and young numismatists

1964 Kennedy's were NOT minted in San Francisco. No mention that the 65 -67 Kennedy's had no mintmarks no matter where they were made. Or that ALL S mint Kennedy's are proofs and were not made for circulation. Or that 1970 and 1987 halves were not made for circulation. A lot left out of "everything".

Reality automatically equaling anger exists only in the world and/or eyes of precious little flowers unable to accept fair, just, and reasonable criticism. You specifically asked for feedback and is exactly what you've been given.

Perhaps try to understand that the membership isn't comprised solely of idiots unable to see through this. If you genuinely wanted to help the young and/or new, there's absolutely nothing stopping you from doing so. There's absolutely no reason you cannot drop the gimmicky nonsense and produce truly educational videos that promote this hobby in an intelligent/thoughtful way, yet your refusal to do so shows this to be nothing more than an exercise in marketing. The fact you're here delusionally comparing "expensive (i.e. quality) reference books" to garbage videos suggesting one can become an "expert" simply by watching them is also rather telling, and this all while dismissing the perfectly valid points and/or criticisms others have made.

Again, why not show how much you truly care by coming here to help deal with the fallout you seem so eager to help create? The only thing that's "shameful" is the fact that you clearly care more about gimmicks than you do content and/or the damage such nonsense can cause. There was absolutely nothing stopping you from taking the previous suggestions to heart and making a video advertising the "basics in 60 seconds", but you know as well as I this isn't as likely to result in as many all-important views.

Your videos are no better than silversearcher's garbage and are made for the same reason. The supposed "everything" one needs to know is no more than the most basic nothing anyone with half a brain can easily discover elsewhere and in less time than it takes to watch clickbait. Also, the mere fact your "60 second" videos are actually more than twice said length due to the self-advertising and begging for subscribers suggests that any educational content is simply a necessary inconvenience.

And please don't give me this crap about how you're a long time member of this community. In nearly six years you've a whopping 78 posts with the vast majority being ads to your YouTube channel or sales offerings with a number of contest entries scattered throughout. In fact, I scrolled through your entire posting history and while something could have been missed, I couldn't find a single example of where you genuinely tried to educate the very people you're now claiming are so important to you. I'm sorry, but this is more telling as to your true motivations than, oh, repeatedly bragging about your channel's view count, especially in context.

Oh, and perhaps you're unaware, but you just admitted to the fact that you do profit from this, even if only modestly, yet you take issue with the fact I called this advertising spam.... go figure. You see, I don't have to call your "integrity into question" (nor did I try) when your own posts and videos accomplish this on their own.
