We regularly purchase American rare coins, foreign coins, U.S. paper currency and bullion material from private coin collectors across the country. We buy rare coin collections of all types and sizes, and offer free appraisals on all collections our buyers examine for purchase.
Being a professional numismatic dealer, our staff works hard to make the strongest offer possible on every collection we evaluate. Unlike other buyers, we do not “cherry pick” collections, our reputable buyers are interested in the most common and mundane coins, as well as the rarest and most esoteric pieces.

Our Buying Process
How We Establish The Value of Rare Coin Collections
The first step of getting an appraisal and offer is to provide us with information about your collection. It’s as easy as using the form below, texting photos to 720-600-4740, or emailing an inventory list (partial lists are fine) or photos of your coins to staff@americanrarities.com. One of our expert buyers will follow up with you with any questions we may have or further information we need. The buyer will then establish values, using all available resources to ensure accuracy, and give you a written appraisal and offer.
Upon your acceptance, we can arrange the best way to purchase the collection. This is either a personal meeting with one of our reputable buyers near you, or utilizing our convenient, fully insured Mail-In Service. In either case, you can count on a competitive offer for your numismatic items. Our private coin collector clientele want your rare coins.
Personal Visit
In many cases, we have a rare coin buyer near you. Our buyers regularly travel attending coin shows, as well as appraising and purchasing collections from private coin collectors just like you. The collection does not need to be organized or presented in any particular manner, we will examine every coin, album, or set in turn, in whatever order they may be in. Once our coin appraisal is complete, we will make you an offer for your coins on the spot. Have a large collection? Learn how we buy large coin collections, or see our local coin buyer and appraisal page.
Insured Mail-In Service
It is not always possible to visit everyone who has coins to sell. Some coin collections are too small to warrant a visit, or in other cases the travel expense is prohibitive. To address this issue, American Rarities offers a fully insured mail-in service. You can ship your coins directly to our buyer’s office, fully insured (at our expense). Immediate payment is customary, and if you decide not to sell, we will return your collection at our expense.
Inherited a Collection?
If you are settling an estate or have inherited coins, we can help you understand what you have before you decide anything. Read our guide on how to sell an inherited coin collection, learn about our estate appraisals and liquidation services, or share our page for the probate and estate lawyer with your attorney. Executors and families can start by sending photos through the form below, by text to 720-600-4740, or by email to staff@americanrarities.com.
