Livermore Coin And Bullion — Local services in Livermore

Over the course of several weeks I attempted to get Livermore Coin and Bullion to take a listing down for a California Fractional Gold Half Dollar BG-1039A that was misatributed by PCGS as BG-1039 and was listed for $14500. In reality it was much more common and probably worth less than $1000. I sent the seller clear evidence of the misatribution to which they responded they trusted PCGS's opinion and if I was an expert I should contact PCGS and they would listen to what I had to say. I eventually did get a response from PCGS claiming it as a mechanical error. After sending that to them, who had even refused to reach out to PCGS first on their own they did then reach out to PCGS and take the listing down around a few days to a week later. From my talks with other coin dealers and expert collectors of California Fractional Gold I know this issue was brought to their attention 4+ times over several months. At the end of the day the listing was taken down after much hassle. It should not be my job to babysit their integrity and as a potential buyer I would be concerned by their lack of ability or refusal to look beyond any certification. I welcome any response to my review from this dealer and contemplated not leaving the review, but it is not just my opinion that was refused, it was also the opinions of other experts in the field who had their knowledge refused to be acknowledged. The lack of action after so many contacts feels...

Best coin shop in California, I don't know how anyone will be able to beat this shop for service and response. I had some gold coins saved up, I have never sold gold before, I have only purchased. I have looked everywhere for something that gave me a bit of comfort. Once I arrived I was greeted by a very polite lady, shortly after Jonathan helped me through the step by step process and gave me a very good fair value for my coins. This was quick and easy, I was done in less then 20 mins. Thank you again Jonathan and your entire staff for making this experience very pleasant and enjoyable.

Livermore Coin and Bullion is a great store with a variety of silver and gold products to buy from and fair pricing on selling to them. Overall I would not hesitate to return, I would definitely recommend this...

John (the owner) is by far the most honest person I've ever done business with, and I got a better price for what I sold than I would have if I put it up for sale online. He was extremely knowledgeable about the rare coins I brought in, and one of his contacts was able to help me with the one obscure roman coin he didn't know about.

A day after I brought in a fair amount of silver, I got a call from him to let me know he miscalculated and he actually owed me more than I was happy to get the day before. When I came in, he apologized for the confusion, showed me the mistake, and gave me the difference, even though I never would have known there was a problem if he didn't tell me.

As a numismatist and precious metal enthusiast of 15+ years, I cannot recommend this...
