Dubbed a "Committee Secret Agent" by @mr1931S on 7/23/24
The very first coin store I ever went into was called “The Wooden Nickel”.
Got me interested.
For humorous, how about “Ye Olde Coin Shoppe”?
My old eBay store was “Copperindian Coins & Collectibles”.

No, that's Manifeisty.
As a kid I went to a shop called Aksarben Coins. Of course I was living in Nebraska at the time.

AND Grading.
If I open a shop with a friend one possibility: "Shyster and Shylock, Coin Gurus".
I always dreamed of opening a strip bar called Silicon City
Does that count?

Someone creative needs to come up with a coin shop name that is on par with this classic name for a law firm:
Dewey, Cheatum & Howe, LLP
Sluggo's Topstuf was a good one
Buy and Hold Coins (might exist, have not seen)

You are a dealer, right? What is the actual name of your shop?
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.
Lie, Cheat & Steal had a table at the Playboy Club show in 1980.

I don't have a BM. My online name on eBay or Whatnot is "EveryThingValuable". That's the actual name I would use, but that name isn't funny. 😃
The Library Coins.... that way the guy can just tell his wife "I'm off to the Library".

Best, funniest, and most successful coin shop name ever -
Coins ‘n Things, in Bridgewater MA
This family business was founded in 1973, and ‘Things’ turned out pretty darn well for them, according to Wikipedia:

30+ years coin shop experience (ret.) Coins, bullion, currency, scrap & interesting folks. Loved every minute!
AND stickering.
The old version that I heard was "Rip 'em, Dip 'em, Flip 'em, and Ship 'em."

You're right. I like your version much better! 👍 👍

I just used my name when I first organized and applied for business license. But I always wanted to use Diamond Jim's Coins even though I dont buy diamonds, I liked the name. Too late to change now, course I know a guy who opened up locally, and changed his name three or four times along locations to avoid repercussions. he was a sheister.
Spare Dimes Coin Shop... older people on this Forum might get the reference...
Drawn and "Quartered"... for the art shop with coins...

A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.
A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
Best coin store ever was in a town in Colorado. The town was either Este's Park or Loveland and the store was called either The Miners Place or The Miners Palace. Circa 1973.
I spent a day there once upon a time when my family went for a vacation.
When you walked in the right side was full of postcards, plastic crap and worthless souvenirs.
The left side was filled with glass cases displaying rare coins.
I bought an 1855 Large cent someone had scratched with a pin. 2 walking liberty halves, and a copy of the brand new book Photograde.
I was just lucky to still have my shoes left by the time my dad found me and dragged me out. James
