Eagles, Buffalos, Krugerrands, Maple Leafs, world gold, and pre-1933 U.S. issues. Scarce dates earn a collector premium over the metal.

What we buy
Sell Gold in NYC: Coins, Bullion & Jewelry
NYC Coin Buyers purchases a wide range of numismatic and bullion material from private sellers across New York City. One gold coin, a sack of pre-1964 silver, a finished Morgan set, or an apartment’s worth of inherited material all get the same careful pass from our buyers. Bullion is priced off current spot, and collector coins are checked against the published guides. No hidden fees and no consignment delays. We make an offer and pay on the spot.
Silver Coins
Everything from a jar of old 90% change to Morgan dollars, Walkers, Mercury dimes, and Silver Eagles. Individual coins, rolls, or full bags.
Rare & Certified Coins
Key dates, mint errors, proof sets, early American coinage, and anything already sealed by PCGS or NGC. We reference current market data for every offer.
Bullion Bars
Bars of any weight in gold, silver, platinum, or palladium. PAMP Suisse, Credit Suisse, Engelhard, Johnson Matthey, and Perth Mint hallmarks are routine here.
Currency & Paper Money
Gold and silver certificates, large-size paper, national bank notes, and fractional issues. Bring what you have for an honest evaluation.
Jewelry & Scrap Gold
Chains, rings, bracelets, dental gold, and anything broken or mismatched. Purity is tested at the counter while you watch: 10K, 14K, 18K, 24K.

347-650-4078The math behind the offer
What Determines the Offer You Receive for Your Coins
Every offer we make is grounded in publicly available market data. Each figure gets broken down for you, so you can go and check it yourself.
Metal Content
Bullion and ordinary gold or silver are priced straight off the live spot market. New York sellers typically get closer to spot on larger quantities and clean, recognizable bullion.
Numismatic Value
On key dates and high-grade certified coins, scarcity sets the price rather than weight. We work from the PCGS Price Guide, the Greysheet, and auction results from recent months.
Condition & Certification
A PCGS, NGC, or ANACS grade settles the argument and lifts the number. Uncertified coins get a more cautious figure because the authentication risk sits with us, so leave slabs sealed.
Melt vs numismatic
At today’s spot there is roughly $20 of silver inside a 1921 Morgan dollar. Uncirculated, the same coin trades for a multiple of that. Add a D mint mark and the silver has not changed at all, yet the price can climb far higher on rarity alone. That gap is where sellers quietly lose money, and it is why every offer we write is itemized.
Service area
Serving All Five Boroughs and Long Island
NYC Coin Buyers welcomes sellers from across New York City and the surrounding area. Sellers regularly come in from Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Staten Island, and neighborhoods throughout Manhattan, along with the towns just out on Long Island.
Many New Yorkers come to us after receiving a quote from an online buyer. What they want is a person on the other side of the counter with the coin actually in hand. Numbers built from photographs skip the details that move a price, and we turn up value those services missed more often than not.
For large collections or situations where transport is difficult, ask about our at-home appraisal option anywhere in the five boroughs. If the collection justifies the trip, a buyer comes to you.

Why local
Why Sell Coins Locally Instead of Online
No shipping risk.
Selling online means handing a package of gold to a carrier and hoping the declared value holds, since insurance ceilings sit below what is inside more often than not. Carry the coins in yourself and they stay in your pocket until you sign.
No delay between appraisal and payment.
A mail-in buyer holds your coins for days, looks them over on their own schedule, then emails a number you may not like. Turning it down restarts the return clock. In person, you get the offer while you wait.
We see every coin in context.
A phone camera cannot show toning, a break in the luster that costs a grade point, hairlines left by an old cleaning, or the die variety that separates a common coin from a scarce one. We examine coins under proper lighting with loupes.
You can walk away at any point.
Once the package leaves your hands, unwinding the sale becomes somebody else’s process rather than yours. In person means zero commitment until you sign off. Turn the number down, keep the written sheet, and shop it wherever you like.
Vs pawn shops
Why New Yorkers Come to Us Instead of Pawn Shops
Most pawn shops buy gold at a steep discount to melt because they need to flip it fast and cover overhead. NYC Coin Buyers connects directly to a network of collectors, investors, and auction houses. That’s why we can pay more.
You can check our numbers.
Spot price, grade, and current collector demand are itemized on the offer sheet, and you are welcome to carry it a few blocks and get a second bid. For jewelry, dental gold, and scrap, a free calculator will give you the per-gram figure at today’s spot before you ever head downtown.
No pressure, no pitch.
We’re coin people, not salespeople. Take the appraisal home and think about it as long as you want.
We handle estate collections.
Inherited coins and don’t know what you have? That’s exactly what we do. We work through the whole thing and put a number beside each piece.
Same-day payment.
Cash or wire when you accept. No waiting, no runaround, no consignment delays.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Coins in NYC
Where can I sell my coins in NYC?
NYC Coin Buyers is a dedicated coin and bullion buyer serving all five boroughs from a downtown Manhattan office. Coins are the whole business here, not a sideline at a pawn counter or a jewelry store. We evaluate every piece based on current market data. Appointments are preferred for collections. Call 347-650-4078 to schedule.
How much do coin buyers in New York pay for silver coins?
Ordinary pre-1964 90% silver trades on its metal, so the offer follows the live spot price and lands at a strong share of melt depending on how much you bring and what form it takes. Scarcer dates and cleaner grades are worth more than the silver sitting in them. We show you exactly how each figure is built.
Should I clean my coins before selling them?
No, please don’t. A cleaned coin has lost the original surface collectors are actually paying for, and the price falls with it, sometimes steeply. Leave the toning, the dust, and the album grime alone and let us read the coin as it sits.
How do I know if my coins are valuable?
Four things settle it: how much metal is in the coin, the date and mint mark, the state it is in, and how many survive. You don’t need to know any of this before you come in. That’s our job. Identification and appraisal cost nothing, and we walk you through what is driving each number.
How should I sell an inherited coin collection?
Bring it exactly as you found it, unsorted and uncleaned. We work through the entire lot, split the genuine collector pieces from the bullion and the face-value change, and hand you a written offer with every group priced separately. Inherited estates are a large part of what we handle.
Do NYC coin buyers pay cash?
Yes. Accept the number and you can walk out with cash up to our daily limit, or we send a wire that reaches your bank the same business day when the total runs higher.
How much are pre-1964 silver coins worth today?
Dimes, quarters, and half dollars struck in 1964 or earlier are 90% silver, so the floor under them is the live silver spot price times the actual silver in the coin. Call for today’s number. Nothing is quoted off a fixed sheet, since the figure moves with the market.
Do you buy gold American Eagles in New York?
Yes. Gold Eagles and Buffalos, Krugerrands, Maple Leafs, and sovereign-minted gold from anywhere else are weighed and tested, then priced off the live gold market with whatever premium that particular coin carries.
Do you make house calls for large collections?
For large collections or situations where transport is difficult, ask about an at-home appraisal anywhere in the five boroughs. If the collection is big enough to justify it, a buyer travels to you. Call 347-650-4078 to discuss.
