I went into CGJ on March 10 2026 looking for silver coins and bullion. they had 2 trays with a lot of silver. Included in those trays were several Maples, a Britannia and a Krugerrand along with several other sovereign coins. There were many buffalo rounds and I even found 2 Engelhard prospector rounds. There was a lot of fractional including 1/2 oz, grams and constitutional silver. As far as selection goes I have seen more in other stores and I have seen less. They sell what they buy so I can't say that the selection will always be like this but I was very happy with the 4 items I bought and I found several more I could have bought. Now for the best part. I paid less than a buck over spot for 2 Perth mint coins and 2 prospector rounds. I asked Gia, who was awesome by the way, for confirmation and she said that was pretty much their standard pricing for generics. I think she said ASEs were 3 or 4 bucks more, still cheap compared most places. Now one might expect with prices that low the price they paid would be pretty low but it was very reasonable. I can't recall exactly because she quoted for maples, ASEs and generics but given the prices I have seen online and at other stores I would have been very happy selling to them at their prices. Further shoutout to Gia, she was wonderful to talk to. Some shop owners are grumpy old curmudgeons who just want to take your money but Gia was friendly, very informative and willing to talk (I'm a talker if you can't tell from this review) I'll probably head back today just to see what they might have.

In the 15 minutes I was with Heidi, I learned a great deal about my ring, and she did the appraisal right in front of me. Further, her fee was very reasonable for the level of service and convenience received. She provides the report for insurance prior to you leaving the appointment, and she has an extremely seamless process. Thanks again Heidi! I will definitely return the next time I need an appraisal.

After my dad passed away and my mom downsized they needed to efficiently and thoughtfully find new homes for the wide array of art and crafts my parents collected and Victoria did just that.
