"Selling my late father's collection, which included some old Spanish coins and National Bank Notes from Florida, was a smooth and reassuring experience with American Rarities. Their appraiser was incredibly knowledgeable about Florida's unique numismatic history, and the offer was very fair. The entire process was professional and quick. I highly recommend them to any Florida seller!"
While Florida doesn't have a history of major federal mints or significant precious metal mining within its borders, its unique history and geographical location provide some interesting connections to numismatics:
As a former Spanish territory, Florida has a history of early Spanish coinage circulating within its borders. These coins, including pieces of eight and other denominations, can still be found in collections and archaeological sites today, offering a tangible link to Florida's colonial past. If you have these specific early American rare coins to sell, we are expert buyers.
Florida's long coastline and history of maritime activity mean that numerous shipwrecks have occurred off its shores. These wrecks, particularly those of Spanish galleons, have yielded significant finds of gold and silver coins over the centuries, capturing the imagination of treasure hunters and collectors alike. We are interested in appraising and buying authenticated shipwreck coins.
During the National Banking Era (1863-1935), various banks across Florida issued their own national banknotes. These notes, featuring the names of local Florida banks, are now collectible pieces of the state's financial history for paper money buyers.
Florida's strategic location near the Caribbean trade routes meant that various foreign currencies and coins likely circulated within the state throughout its history.
Florida has a large and active community of coin collectors and numerous local coin clubs that foster interest in numismatics and preserve the state's monetary history.

While currently closed to public tours, this museum (part of the Federal Reserve system) showcases the history of money and the Federal Reserve's role, including exhibits on coins and currency relevant to Florida's economic past.
As the state's official history museum, it houses extensive collections related to Florida's past, which very likely include exhibits on its economic development, early banking, and various forms of historical currency that circulated in Florida, including Spanish colonial coinage and Confederate notes.
This renowned museum is dedicated to the recovery of treasures from historic shipwrecks, most notably the Spanish galleon Nuestra Senora de Atocha, which sank off the Florida Keys. Its exhibits feature vast quantities of recovered gold and silver coins, ingots, and artifacts, making it a premier destination for shipwreck numismatics.

While located in Delaware, this exhibit features artifacts, including vast quantities of silver and gold coins, from the Spanish galleon Nuestra Senora de Atocha, which sank off the Florida Keys. The recovery efforts had significant Florida ties and are a major part of shipwreck numismatic history.
Many towns and counties across Florida, particularly those with a strong Spanish colonial or maritime history, maintain their own historical societies and museums. These smaller institutions often have unique artifacts related to their local economy, which could include rare local paper money, early tokens, or other historical currency. Researching specific local museums in your area of Florida is recommended.
American Rarities is actively seeking a diverse range of numismatic items and precious metals from residents throughout Florida, with a particular interest in pieces that reflect the Sunshine State's captivating history, from its Spanish colonial roots to its maritime past:
Whether you're a Florida coin collector looking to sell early copper cents with intriguing stories, classic silver dollars that circulated throughout Florida's history, or modern commemorative coins and meticulously preserved proof sets celebrating national milestones, we are eager to evaluate your entire U.S. coin collection. If you want to sell old coins or get a coin appraisal, we can help.
From early U.S. gold eagles, half eagles, and quarter eagles, often prized for their historical significance and intrinsic gold content, to later, more readily available gold coinage like the elegant Saint-Gaudens and the iconic Liberty Head series, we purchase all denominations of U.S. gold coins. We also hold a special interest in any gold coins potentially recovered from Florida's numerous historic shipwrecks, remnants of a bygone era. We offer a competitive gold coin value.
Looking to sell silver dollars in Florida? We purchase all types, including the iconic Morgan and Peace Silver Dollars, symbols of American expansion and peace, as well as earlier Trade Dollars that facilitated commerce with the Far East. We also value any silver coins that may have been part of a sunken treasure discovered off Florida's coast. These large silver coins hold historical significance and attract strong collector interest.
This encompasses Half Dollars, Quarters, Dimes, Nickels, and Cents. We pay special attention to coins with key dates, significant mint marks (including those from the Philadelphia and Denver Mints, major sources of Florida's circulating coinage), and any recognized varieties, such as doubled dies or repunched mint marks, which can dramatically increase their numismatic value.
Unique and often highly sought after by specialized coin collectors, error coins resulting from minting mishaps (like off-center strikes, broadstrikes, and wrong planchets) and die varieties (minor but distinct differences caused by variations in the coin dies) can be surprisingly valuable. If you possess any unusual-looking rare coins, we encourage you to have them evaluated by our experts for a free coin appraisal.
As active paper money buyers in Florida, we purchase all forms of U.S. currency, from early Treasury Notes and Demand Notes that financed the nation's beginnings to Civil War-era currency, often with local Florida circulation, and later Gold Certificates, Silver Certificates, and modern Federal Reserve Notes. If you're looking to sell old paper money, we can provide an expert currency appraisal.
We have a particular interest in National Bank Notes issued by banks in Florida during the National Banking Era (1863-1935). These notes are tangible pieces of Florida's financial history and highly collectible for paper money buyers.
Given Florida's rich history as a Spanish territory, we are very interested in acquiring early Spanish coinage that circulated here, including silver cobs, reales, and the highly prized gold doubloons. These coins offer a direct connection to Florida's formative years and can be quite valuable depending on their condition and rarity. Coins recovered from Spanish shipwrecks off the Florida coast are also of significant interest for their numismatic rarity and historical significance.
Whether in the form of refined bars, cast rounds, or internationally recognized gold coins like American Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, South African Krugerrands, and even smaller denominations, we are active gold buyers in Florida, offering competitive prices based on current market values.
