Reputable dealers (ebay) and coin shops (ebay and other)

Since I'm not keen on who's reputable and who's not on ebay, I'm asking here. I'm looking for some good dealers and shops that deal with old darkside coins. Specifically, coins as far back as the 1400's with modern 4-digit years on them.

As some of you've read, I'm trying to acquire a small set of dated coins from each century from 1400’s to 1800’s (MAYBE 1900’s and 2000’s, but probably not). A dated 1400 coin (1499 if one’s out there) isn’t a “must”, but great if it's available. Dated coins from at least 1500 to 1899 are a must.

Anyone know of good dealers who have a nice stock of stuff? Looking to get between 5 and 7 coins total.

    A couple others are Allen Berman (845) 434-6090 and Harlan Berk (312) 609-0017.


    A necessary reference for collecting early dated coins is Albert R. Frey's The Dated European Coinage Prior to 1501; Sanford J. Durst Numismatic Pubs. printed the 3rd Edn. back in 2000 and he's likely to have some available. I don't know his web address or have his phone number available, but it shouldn't be hard to find.

    Ralph S. Walker's Reading Medieval European Coins is a handy reference when you're just starting out to help you figure out inscriptions; Attic Books published the 2nd Edn. in 2000.
