Coin Appraisal

 
  1. Search for banknote or coin dealers by location or specialty to find retailers, wholesalers, auction houses, and estate liquidators.
  2. Do you have an old coin and wonder what it is worth? First, find our picture of your coin using the FIND, BROWSE, LOCATION, or GENRE buttons. Then select the picture to get a full description of your coin, including its catalog value. For more site details, click the ABOUT button. To try it out, click one of the coin.

Generally speaking, whenever a coin is appraised those 2 values are combined to form the ‘appraised value’ of the coin. The bottom line is all silver, gold, and platinum coins are worth their bullion value (an amount based on the current price of the metal) plus their numismatic value (an amount based on the collectibility of the coin.

Looking to sell your rare coins? sellers beware!

Have you noticed all the random cash for gold dealers popping up everywhere? They have popped up everywhere in the last few years. Beware, these dealers are staffed with inexperienced green horns! some were recently gardeners and plumbers, and possess no knowledge of rare coins and values. You would be astounded by how little most gold store employee's know. I've heard of some gold stores putting acid on coins to make sure they are real! that damages the coins and turns it into a piece of metal, taking away any extra coin value the coin might of had. Don't lt this be you. Nothing replaces years of experience and a keen eye for coin grading. Last month we paid a man $500 for one silver dollar! No gold buyer will offer you $500 just for one silver coin. These scarp gold buyers wouldn't know the difference between a $2 dollar coin and a $500 dollar coin. Let us find the treasures in your collection! If you are looking to sell a coin collection, call 951-686-2122 to book an appointment today.
