At Metro Pawn & Gun are big fans of collectible coins, coins made of precious metals, and other rare coins and currencies. Coins from around the world and throughout the ages are not only valuable, but each one carries along its own chapter of history from the era during which it was created. Can you imagine where a penny minted during World War II may have been? Or a Morgan silver dollar from 1921, steeped in history and witness to events that shaped our world. We stock silver quarters and dimes, WWII nickels and pennies, and innumerable other numismatic treasures. We are always on the lookout for rare coins you may want to sell or pawn.

When shopping for coins or precious metals, the most common destination is usually a coin shop. After all, people looking for guns probably go to an firearms store, and people looking for tools likely call on the hardware store. But the next time that visiting a coin shop happens to be on your schedule, stop by Metro Pawn & Gun and have a look around. Coin collectors come in all shapes and sizes – from the aspiring child getting into his first real coin collection that all started with that silver dime he found in his piggy bank, to the seasoned professional who examines his specimens under a loupe. 

Coin Grading

You will be amazed by our vast selection of merchandise and impressed by the grading skills of our knowledgeable staff. The primary purpose of grading a coin is to determine what the coin's market value is based on how and when the coin was originally struck, how well the coin has been preserved, and how much wear the coin has incurred since it was minted. These variables could be the difference between a coin being worth hundreds or thousands of dollars, or little to nothing.

And finally, the opportunity cost of our prices as compared to ‘full-retail’ coin shops will allow that collection to grow ever faster.  Our appraisal of coins received in pawn or purchased from our clients takes into account their condition, scarcity, and valuation, thus offering the same quality and authenticity to what can be found at any specialty coin shop. At Metro Pawn & Gun, we extend cash loans for your individual coins or collections. If you want to sell these items outright, we will also make a fair offer to buy them. So stop in and see us today for any of your collectible coin needs!
