What we buy

If it's on this list, bring it in. The evaluation is free.

  • American Gold and Silver Eagles

Bullion or collectible? It changes the price

Most coins fall into one of two groups. Bullion coins and bars, like Eagles, Maple Leafs and Krugerrands, are valued mainly on their gold or silver content and that day's market price. Collectible coins can be worth well above their metal, depending on rarity, date and condition.

Please don't clean old coins before bringing them in. Cleaning leaves fine scratches that collectors can spot, and it can cut a collectible coin's value sharply.

Common questions

Should I keep coins in their original holders?

Yes. Original packaging and holders protect condition, so bring them as they are.

Can I sell part of a collection?

Yes. You decide what to sell.

Do you buy foreign coins?

Gold and silver foreign coins, yes, based on their metal. Base-metal foreign coins generally have little value.
