Are they regulars on the show circuit, too?

    I have done business with them, they have a store front by appointment only. Quality varies quite a bit but they are legit, don't know about the show circuit.

    I think it is run by an older couple. Been around forever...or rather they take up a large spot at the Long Beach show at least as long as I've been going. 22 years now roughly. Sell mostly raw such as Proof set etc. Maybe some slabs. Pretty legit I think.

    Just got a Happy TG email from them. They have tons of stuff including many PCGS graded Morgans, etc.

    I used to receive their pretty thick monthly catalogue, haven't seen one in a while. Seems they a had a lot of inventory.

    They are most certainly legit. I've done quite a bit of business over the years with them. They are a huge purveyor of cherrypicker varieties. Though, I find them to be pretty pricey, sometimes 200-300% retail on the rarer stuff!

    Not sure about moderns, but I've been buying from them for over 25 years, mainly raw Barber material, and Large Cents.

    Good outfit. They have an extensive raw coin inventory.

    Have had to send a few back (cleaned) but overall not a bad experience.

    Great source for moderns at a fair price.
