When our family needed to have some coins appraised for an estate, we spoke to our financial…read moreadvisor. He recommended SilverBug Coin Shop. Before I went in, I called the owner, Ron, for some information. He told me to bring in our coins and he'd take a look at what we had. Prior to this, I had done some research and purchased a couple of books to try to get a rough approximation of what the coins were worth, but wanted to get a professional opinion. Ron definitely knew his stuff; he's been into coins since he was a kid, and his knowledge was very apparent. He went through my coin inventory, gave me prices he'd pay if we were interested in selling, talked shop for a bit, and didn't charge me a dime. If we do decide to sell anything, he'll be the first place I go. And if you're interested in buying, he has a nice inventory of coins for purchase. In fact, I'll be going back in one of these days to buy a few things to add to my collection.

While it is true that it is a husband-and-wife business, Mike, one of the owners, mainly handles the coins. His wife answers the doorbell and assists with paperwork and some jewelry assessments, but during my almost hour-long wait with my sister, I only saw her look at one piece of jewelry that came in. All coin transactions with customers looking to sell are managed by Mike. When we finally met with him, he spent over 20 minutes explaining why he would not be purchasing our Morgan and Peace Dollars. It wasn't because they were fake; rather, my sister had purchased them from the Bradford Exchange, and while they were in "PCGS type" holders, Mike noticed that many coins were cleaned, which devalues them significantly. He was very kind and even suggested that we take them to a coin show. Mike also mentioned that if I bring in items that require closer inspection, I should make an appointment. He indicated that appointments take priority. This is truly a "Mom and Pop" establishment, and you should expect to wait a long time. They are upfront about this and may ask you to return later if possible because the shop is small, has no seating, and wait times can be lengthy. This is the only reason I rated it four stars. I found Mike to be friendly and attentive, taking the time to ensure that every customer who walked in understood why he would or would not purchase the items they presented. I can not comment on his inventory because the day I came, we was so busy with sellers he didn't even have a chance to put any coins out on his displays.

A quick online search led me here and I'm glad that it did, because I was offered considerably more. I hadn't pawned anything in over 15 years and wasn't super knowledgeable about the process. The staff here walked me through everything and made sure that I knew exactly what I was getting into. I was in and out within minutes and left feeling like they took care of me.

The staff gave me an extremely low offer on a high-value item and acted like they were doing me a favor. When I later inquired about a different product, another employee gave me an excuse that didn't make sense, and it came across as if they just didn't want to buy from me. Overall, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and the vibe of the place made me uncomfortable. Based on how I was treated, I won't be returning and do not recommend this place.
