Coin Consulting, Appraisals & More

Not looking to sell? Still happy to help. From insurance appraisals to museum-quality cataloging, delivered by an ANA & PNG-member numismatist throughout the DMV.

If you have a collection you are not looking to sell, I’m still happy to help. Whether you want an appraisal for insurance value, want to maximize the value of your collection, or have any other reason, it makes sense to pay for a consultation.

What I Offer

Consulting & Appraisal Services

Four ways I can help you understand, protect, and maximize the value of your collection, anywhere in the DMV.

Determine the Value of Your Collection

Whether you want to know what you can expect to get for your collection when the time comes, or you’re looking for a number on how much your collection should be insured for, I can help. See dedicated insurance appraisal service.

Identify Coins Worth Third-Party Grading

Coins can be worth far more when submitted to PCGS, NGC, or ANACS to encapsulate and grade. I’ll determine which coins might be worth submitting to maximize the value of your collection.

Protect Your Coins for the Long Term

In addition to working for coin dealers, I worked for one of the largest coin supply companies in the world. Coins can be damaged from banging together or from disintegrating old PVC holders, condition is everything, and the right storage preserves your investment.

Maximize Profit in Future Years

Many dealers have a blanket price they’ll pay for any one coin. I’ll take the time to catalog which coins are worth more and organize your collection in a way that will make its value obvious when the time comes to sell.

Condition is Everything

Why Proper Storage Matters

Coins can become damaged from banging against each other, but also from being stored in old holders that are disintegrating onto the coin. Issues like this can make a thousand-dollar coin turn into a hundred-dollar coin in seconds.

I’ll holder your coins properly to preserve their condition for the future, protecting the value you already have.

Condition is everything in coins.
Whatever Works for You

Three Levels of Service

From a single number to a complete museum-quality catalog, you decide the scope.

Quick Valuation

If all you want is a number on the value of your collection, I’m happy to provide that on a per-hour basis.

Itemized Pricing

If you want a price associated with each coin in the collection, common for insurance riders, I can do that too.

Full Museum-Quality Catalog

Complete written descriptions of every item: history, grade, comparables, and recommended next steps. Perfect for serious collectors and high-value estates.
