What we buy
We buy across the whole range, from one coin somebody left you to fifty years of collecting. Bullion and common material is paid straight against the live market, and anything a collector would genuinely want is read on its own terms and paid accordingly. Nothing comes off the top in fees, nothing goes on consignment, and the number holds the day it is made.
Eagles, Buffalos, Krugerrands, sovereigns and American gold struck before 1933. Bullion is arithmetic. The older pieces get read for the premium they carry.
Every dime, quarter and half dated 1964 or back, plus dollars, Eagles and rounds. One coin or a full can, and the can gets looked through before it gets weighed.
PCGS and NGC holders, key dates, verified mint errors, proof sets and early type coins, priced from auction results instead of a chart on the wall.
Gold, silver, platinum and palladium in bars and rounds, a single ounce through a full kilo. Known refiners and sealed product earn the closest rate.
Blue-seal certificates, oversized pre-1928 notes, Texas charter issues and replacement star notes. Nothing else gets spent by accident this often.
Karat gold in whatever condition it turned up in, broken, bent, single or dental. Acid and electronic testing on the counter where you can see it, 10K up to 24K, sterling as well.
How it works
Ring 903-213-0034 and describe it in whatever words you have. "A tin of my granddad's silver" tells us plenty. No lists, no photographs, no identifying anything first.
The lot is sorted and checked in front of you, against the metals market as it stands that hour and against what collectors are paying. A few coins take minutes. A whole estate takes an hour and is not hurried.
The offer is written out and split into groups, with the reason beside each line. Ask about any of it. Nothing is charged and nothing is assumed.
Agree and you are paid then and there, cash or a same-day wire on larger amounts. Decline and the coins go home with you along with the written figure.
Questions before you drive over? Call.
903-213-0034Behind the figure
There is no mystery in a coin offer. The inputs are all public: market data and published references. We would much rather take you through them than expect you to trust a figure blind.
Bullion and common coins ride the live market, and that market moves all day. Quantity counts as well, since a real amount of clean familiar material is easier to move on than a handful of leftovers.
Scarcity is what lifts a coin over its weight. Thin original mintages, and years that got melted or spent away, carry premiums with nothing to do with what the coin weighs.
Condition multiplies scarcity. A certified coin turns up with that already settled. A raw one we grade conservatively, because being wrong about it is our risk to carry rather than something to hand to you.
Same silver, different money
Two Morgan dollars can hold identical silver and sit nowhere near each other in value. One is a common year in worn shape and stays close to its metal. The other came from a thin mintage that rarely surfaces, and collectors will pay a large multiple to own it. Weigh the pair together and only one of them gets paid what it is actually worth.
Where we buy
People drive in from all directions. Some are twenty minutes out in Royse City or Quinlan, others come across from Rockwall, or down from Commerce, or west from Sulphur Springs.
A good number arrive after an online buyer quoted them off three photographs. Having the coins physically in hand surfaces things no photograph carries, and it works out that way often enough to justify the fuel.
Where a holding is bulky, heavy, or something you would rather not drive around with, ask instead about a buyer coming out to it. On a genuine estate that is normally the better arrangement.
See the full service area →Why in person
Mail a collection off and the only leverage you had is gone. Across a counter they stay yours until a number is agreed, and you can stop the whole thing at any point you like.
The ceilings sit lower than most people assume and a genuine estate can clear them several times over. None of that matters when the buyer is twenty minutes up the road.
Luster, hairlines left by an old cleaning, the crispness of a strike. Those are the whole distance between melt value and collector value, and a phone camera catches none of them.
A written figure travels with you. Carry it to another dealer, sit on it overnight, or check the metal arithmetic yourself. A buyer who resents that has told you what you needed to know.
Versus a pawn counter
A pawn shop buys gold well under the market because it has to turn inventory fast and support a storefront running five other lines of business at the same time. We sell into a network of collectors, investors and auction houses, and that difference on its own is why the figures here can run higher.
Market price, weight, purity and any premium, laid out so you can follow each step. We will gladly show you how to pull the live metal figures up on your own phone.
Coins are the entire business, not one counter among six. There is no script to work through and no reason whatsoever to rush you.
A pawn counter puts an inherited collection on a scale because a scale is the only tool it owns. Here the lot gets separated first, and anything collectible is paid at collector rates.
Cash over the counter or a wire the same business day. No consignment window and no waiting to learn what somebody else got for it later.
FAQ
Greenville Coin Buyers works from an office here in town and buys throughout Hunt County and Northeast Texas. This is a numismatic business, not a pawn counter and not a jeweler with a sideline, and every figure is traceable back to current market data. Collections go best by appointment, so ring 903-213-0034 first.
Common pre-1964 dimes, quarters and halves pay out on their true silver content at whatever silver is doing that hour. Bigger lots earn a closer rate, and the better dates get set aside and paid above melt rather than weighed in with everything else.
Please do not, and this is the mistake that costs sellers the most money. A cleaned coin has lost the original surface that earned the premium, and no amount of care puts it back. The shinier result routinely sells for a small fraction of what the dull one would have brought. Bring everything untouched.
Metal content, the date and mint letter, the state of the surfaces, and the surviving population between them decide it. None of that needs settling before you arrive. Working it out is the appraisal itself, it costs nothing, and the reasoning gets explained as we go.
Bring it exactly as you found it, uncleaned and unsorted. The lot is cataloged, genuine collector material is lifted out from the bullion and the loose change, and the figure you leave with is written and itemized. Estates are a large share of what we do.
Yes. Say yes and cash goes across the counter up to the daily ceiling, with anything above that wired the same business day.
U.S. dimes, quarters and half dollars dated 1964 or before run 90% silver, so the floor is simply live silver multiplied by the silver actually in them. That number moves hour to hour, so ring for a live figure instead of relying on something posted weeks ago.
Yes, and Buffalos, Maple Leafs, Philharmonics, sovereigns and the rest of the government-issued gold as well. Payment comes off weight and fineness against live gold, with that specific coin’s premium added on top.
For a substantial collection, or when moving it safely is a genuine problem, a buyer can travel to you anywhere in Greenville and the surrounding Northeast Texas counties. Call 903-213-0034 and we will set a time.
