Salinas Coin Exchange — Local services in Salinas

About a year ago I had stopped in to purches some coin hpäders and got to chatting about a coin i had that i needed looked at bc i wasnt sure if it was an error. She was very friendly toäd me she wouäd be happy to check it out for me and also help grade some of my coins. Fast forward to today, i called before going in to make sure she had time she said yes but would have to take care of customers as well bc she was tje only 1 zhere. Not a problem except for when i had gotten there she sorted out the wheat pennies showed me the price for ms 65 which most of them where and toäd me how much they where worth.

In my experience/opinion; they all have so graciously answered any inquiries I may have had, as well as taken the time to divulge even further knowledge whilst being patient and thorough. As for me, I believe they've been fair and undoubtedly honest. Obviously, one can not/should not expect to receive nor to be offered an outlandish amount.. Think of it this way, they are You, when you're out yard sale hopping. Yes, I have returned a few times and would/will gladly recommend them, also will continue to be a patron...

I give Sara five stars! Learning more about the old coins my mother had laying around was a surprisingly easy and fun process!

She explained what the coins were worth and why, citing various books including a Red Book, Blue Book, and other grand informative guides. Ended up getting a much better deal than I would've gotten other places and now feel better informed about the items I left with.

If you have coins or jewelry to sell, she'll give you a fair price and make you feel smart and...
