Any good Coin Shops in the Washington DC area?

I'm in Laurel (between DC and Baltimore).

There is a nice shop in Laurel called Golden Eagle that looks like a tchotchke & Jewelry shop on entry. They deal coins in the back of the store. They seem to get a ton of stock rotation. Every time I am in there they are buying bags and boxes of coins from wholesalers. The people are nice and the grading and prices seem fair to me. They also don't mind letting you look through sets to choose your purchases. Link

Also very close is Metro Coin & Currency in Jessup, MD. I've only been once and they seemed OK. It was when I was getting started and needed supplies so I can't even comment on coin selection. I don't think they are online anywhere.

I am hoping others add to your question with more shops. I've only looked in town and online. Silver Spring, MD has a few. I believe forum member Julian has a shop there.

Thanks Tootawl. I've got to visit. I was actually a block away from there this morning. Not sure how he would have felt about me bringing the kids in though .
