Our initial rare coin dealership was founded in Michigan in 1998, and we have since moved to Orange County, California, opening our flagship retail store and headquarters in Costa Mesa, California in October 2015. We are a member dealer of Certified Coin Exchange, which is the largest and most respected national dealer organiztion and trading platform. We are also Authorized PCGS and NGC dealers.

In addition to being a full service coin dealership, we offer numismatic consulting services, such as auction representation, professional coin photography, variety attributions, authentication services, written evaluations, and expert witness services to bank trust departments, attorneys and law enforcement.
