While Connecticut may not have a history of major federal mints or significant precious metal mining within its borders, the state has its own unique connections to numismatics and early American financial history:
As one of the original thirteen colonies, Connecticut played a vital role in the early development of the United States. Coins and currency from the colonial era and the early federal period circulated within the state, and examples of these historic pieces can still be found in collections today.
During the Confederation period (1783-1789), Connecticut authorized its own state coinage, producing copper cents known as "Connecticut Coppers." These coins are highly collectible and represent a significant part of early American numismatic history with a direct tie to the state. If you have these specific early American rare coins to sell, we are expert buyers.
During the National Banking Era (1863-1935), numerous banks across Connecticut issued their own national banknotes. These notes, featuring the names of local Connecticut banks, are now sought after by paper money buyers and collectors interested in the state's financial past.
Connecticut has a dedicated community of coin collectors and numerous local coin clubs that foster interest in numismatics and preserve the state's monetary history.
