Coin Collector

Every family has a coin collector, or had a coin collector. And every coin collector has undoubtedly clogged closet and garage space with their vast numismatic treasures, leaving the family to have to deal with the coins of the coin collector when the coin collector loses interest, or, in unfortunate cases, the coin collector moves on from this world. A coin collector is a different breed from your every day average collector of things. This is true because the coin collector has always found an appreciation in money and things that will generally have some kind of value. For example, the coin collector who collects American coins and currency has held on to things that will never lose value below that of their face value.

Unlike other items collected, that move in and out of fancy with the times, a coin collector can have real faith in knowing that, in being a coin collector, his or her coin collection will likely be worth more than just the time and money put into it. A coin collector who became a coin collector in the 1960’s or earlier likely picked up every day, circulated coins that had silver in them for at or close to face value. Based on the silver content, the coin collector did very well considering that nowadays even the worst or most common examples of those coins would be worth considerably more than just their face value. A coin collector who became a coin collector in the 1950’s likely was able to pick up American silver dollars for just their face value as well. And if the coin collector passed these coins down to his relatives, they could find some serious value as these silver dollar coins, provided by that relentless coin collector, commonly trade for more than ten dollars each, and some cases much more than just that.

Sometimes, that coin collector member of the family can go misunderstood and often times other family members find themselves confused as to why the coin collector is so ardent in his approach to being a coin collector and holding on to old coins and currency. What most people don’t realize is that the coin collector is doing a big favor for the rest of the family just by being themselves, a true coin collector.

Even the coin collector who saved thousands of Lincoln Wheat pennies from back in the day has doubled their overall investment, as those coins commonly trade for two cents each on the open market today, making being an old fashioned coin collector a very profitable hobby to have undertook. And that is, of course, if the coin collector didn’t manage to come across one of the key dates of the Lincoln Wheat penny series. If they did, you might just be owing a huge thanks to that coin collector as they might have put some serious money into your pocket.

This dealer was beyond excellent in all respects! No low-ball games, no fooling around. These people are honest, and the transaction was handled smoothly with complete transparency. I will definitely recommend Nevada Coin & Jewelry to everybody I know!

This past Saturday I had the opportunity to meet the owner and team at Nevada Coin and Jewelry. I didn’t know what to expect but they made me feel both comfortable and safe. I went through my collection of jewelry, both broken pieces and things I thought were of no value at all. They took the time to explain what each carat weight was worth and they helped me sort through my items. I was amazed at what they gave me for things I would never wear or use. I would recommend you stop in and speak to them, you might be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

I recently got divorced so I wanted to get rid of some of the jewelry my ex-husband got me. I found Nevada Coin and jewelry searching the web. When I called the guy that answered the phone was friendly and willing to quote me a price per gram. I went to their store on Flamingo, Avery whom I spoke to on the phone tested my items using some kind of x-ray machine. I could see that some of my jewelry was not the karat I thought (some lower some higher). He paid what he quoted on the phone no bait and switch. It took less than 15 minutes got my cash and got rid of some bad memories. I would recommend this company if you are looking to sell jewelry.

Wonderful experience, Nick and Laura made it seamless and stress free. Thank you! They also sell super cool items!!

As a first timer in selling, I was a bit apprehensive. I did not know what to expect and was a little worried about a previous reviewers comments. Yes the office was stark and clinical. The staff however, more than made up for any downfall in the decor. Very helpful, polite and understanding to any ‘silly’ questions that were asked. All in all a pleasant experience, and one that should the opportunity arise I would go through again!

Been living in Vegas for many years and never had to sell or hock any of my items unfortunately as luck would have it that day did eventually find me and let me tell you is it a tough racket to find a decent place out here to do business with. Pawn shops are a joke and could care less about their customers and treated me like another number. Tried and tried and place after place the numbers where all over the place. Finally decided to go to these guys and I’m glad I did. They tested each piece of my jewelry right in from of me with some kind of xray machine. They explained how they calculated the price and paid me cash on the spot. Avery was very helpful and didn’t mind answering my questions and explaining what they do. I left feeling I got the best price for my items. I would recommend them to anyone looking to sell their jewelry.

We were really pleased with the help that AJ gave us concering our gold coins and watches. I don’t think we could have received a better deal anywhere. All of the personnel at Nevada Coin & Jewelry were very professional. We will recommend them to our friends.

My Aunt recently passed and she lived in the outskirts of Las Vegas. While my sister and I went through her estate we found a number of items that neither of us considered keeping, but our aunt was clear in her will that she wanted us to use her things to make a profit and in turn use that money to help our futures. We shopped around, especially not being from the area, and got a lot of negative experiences just on the phone. People were rude, uninformative, and really just gave us a feeling they wanted to rip us off. It made us think of those dirty pawn shops you “hear about”. Finally I called Nevada Coin and Jewelry and the whole day shifted! We described a few pieces of jewelry and they helped us figure out initially a general value based on the metal. Of course, they did explain the importance of actually coming in and examining the pieces individually. That level of service over the phone got us through the door. When we went to the spot we were greeted with the same level courtesy, but the professionalism when going over each item and it’s value was through the roof! They took the time to explain why each item was worth what amount and even gave us a little bit of history on the styles. At the end of the day, my sister and I walked away with a sizable amount of money to put towards my son’s college fund and my sister’s vet school. Thanks, Nevada Coin and Jewelry!

A great selection of coins and other numismatic related material. Very professional.

Grateful for the Nevada Coin and Jewelry shop, I just adore it. I took some collectable figurines in and they bought them. I came out smelling like a rose. You should’ve been there to see the big smile on my face. I ran all the way home to look for some more. Can’t wait to get back! I can sure use the money!
