question about a dealer

ernie11ernie11 Posts: 2,095 ✭✭✭✭✭

Has anybody dealt with the Coast to Coast Coins dealer before? I see a coin on their website that I'm a little interested in. The only reason I ask is that I noted the absence on their website of any professional association with a numismatic organization like ANA, et al, and it puzzled me. Thanks.

    I’ve purchased multiple coins directly from their website with no issues. They seem to list all of their inventory on eBay, so you can also purchase there (for a higher price) if you want additional purchase protections.

    They actually do include the ANA logo on their website (below), but I was unsuccessful locating their business on the ANA’s dealer directory: https://coin-dealer-directory.money.org/k:Coast+to+coast


    However, I did find them as members of the CCE: https://www.certifiedcoinexchange.com/Dlr/Dealers?location=AMER&state=*&searchName=coast+coin&cmdSearch=Search

    Nothing is as expensive as free money.

    Thank you. I saw the ANA logo, too, but it's just a link to ANA's website, not a declaration of membership.

    I’ll echo @POCKETCHANGE - I’ve had good experience with them over several transactions. But, their photos need improvement!

    I'll join the recommendation ranks. They are great dealer, having bought from them many times over a dozen years or so. No issues to think of.

    Thanks guys, for all the good recommendations.

    I’ve dealt with them many times. They are reputable and exceptional, They are trustworthy and have an enormous selection of rare Coins. Their prices are a bit strong, but I don’t mind paying a little extra for what I want. They ship super fast, too.

    Have bought several coins from them without any problems. I’ve heard that coins that aren’t selling they will negotiate.

    Dealt with them for years, never had a problem.

    Many purchases from them also. Their layaway program works good too. The only think I can't figure out about them is how they can afford to mail out a catalog every week or two - it has to be very expensive.

    I’ll add to the list of compliments.
    I’ve purchased from them and had all good experiences.

    I have purchased from them, and sold to them. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

    Thanks to all of you again for your experiences. I just completed my purchase with C to C and it arrived today.

    If it arrived...where's the picture of the coin?!?!?!?!

    I bought a couple of my nicer Lincoln’s from them. A 1924-S in 2019 and a gorgeous 1927-S in 2016. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

    +1

    Haven’t purchased a coin from them in awhile but I still get a catalog in the mail every few weeks. Go figure.

    It's nothing earth-shaking, just a low-grade Barber Half.

    Thats got great eye appeal for the grade.

    Just a warning. Someone is using their logo page to promote a ripoff. It's on Facebook. They tell you if you buy 3 silver eagles (dated 2024) you will get 2 free. And they are a great price, about $16 each if I remember. I bought 5 to prove they were fake. I turned them over to the secret service. They are working on it and I probably won't hear anything about it. They go under MANY names so beware! Ray

    Yes, they are good to deal with. They are in Oregon so no sales tax.

    Yes, that's why I bought it - a lot of low-grade Barbers have dubious eye appeal.

    It took me a long time to find an acceptable 1915 Barber in lower grade a few years ago.

    Having seen thousands of Barbers worn down to the nubs, I wouldn’t call that coin low grade. It’s a nice, mid-grade, honestly worn, better date half.

    I call anything below XF low grade, pardon my arbitrariness. This 1915 graded VF25.

    Coast to Coast Coin, the dealer the OP is inquiring about, is in Columbia, Maryland.
    It’s West Coast Coin that’s based in Oregon.
    Pretty easy to mix these up!
