Find a Trusted Local Coin Dealer for Your Collection
You’ve collected numismatic coins your whole life, painstakingly assembling your treasured collection. But sadly, numismatics just isn’t what it used to be. Younger generations aren’t as interested, meaning it’s less likely your children or grandkids will want to hold onto the collection.
So it’s time to cash in, the only problem is, local coin dealers are hard to find these days. Where there used to be a rare coin shop on every block, now you may be lucky to have even one in your entire area. Also, try and find a coin dealer that has the appreciation and the customer base for all the different types of coins you may have collected. We’ll appraise and make you an offer on your entire collection whether it be U.S. Coin, Foreign coins, or gold and silver bullion. Check out this informative article on Mistakes to Avoid When Selling Coins.
What to Look for in a Reputable Local Coin Dealer
A professional coin dealer should offer more than just a quick sale. Here are the key qualities of a top-tier dealer:
A Verifiable Reputation: A trusted dealer will have a long history of positive reviews and professional accreditations.
A Transparent, No-Fee Process: You should never be charged for an appraisal, shipping, or insurance. Be wary of auction sites that take a large commission (often 13-22%) from your final sale price.
Expertise in All Coins: A true expert will evaluate your entire collection, from common bullion to rare world coins, not just “cherry-pick” the best items.

You also won’t pay:
- Appraisal fees (some local coin dealers may charge this)
