Selling a coin collection is different from selling almost anything else. A collection often represents years, or even decades, of searching, learning, and collecting. Every album tells a story. Every upgrade reflects time spent studying the market, attending coin shows, reading auction catalogs, and finding the right coin to complete a set.

When it's time to sell, you deserve a buyer who understands that effort.

Whether you've built a collection over a lifetime, inherited one from a family member, are downsizing, or are responsible for settling an estate, we're here to help. We review entire collections, make competitive cash offers, and provide immediate payment when we reach an agreement. For qualifying collections throughout the Northeast and surrounding regions, we travel directly to you.

Our History

More Than 60 Years of Buying Collections

Anthony's Stamps & Coins was founded by Howard Anthony in 1958 with a simple philosophy: treat collectors fairly and build lasting relationships through honesty and knowledge. Over the decades, that philosophy has remained the foundation of the business.

We've purchased collections assembled over generations. We've worked with lifelong collectors, families handling inherited estates, dealers reducing inventory, and individuals who simply decided it was time to sell. Our reputation has been built one collection at a time.

Anthony's has also earned recognition throughout the numismatic community. As a Certified Coin Exchange (CCE) dealer and a longtime advertiser in both Coin World and Linn's Stamp News, we've spent decades actively participating in the hobby while serving collectors across the country.

Collecting trends change. Markets fluctuate. New collectors enter the hobby while others decide it's time to pass their collections on. Through it all, Anthony's has remained focused on one thing: purchasing collections fairly and professionally.

Built by Collectors

Built by Collectors. Bought by Collectors.

The best collections are rarely assembled overnight. They're built one coin at a time. Collectors spend years improving albums, searching for better dates, finding original examples, upgrading certified coins, completing sets, and learning the history behind every series.

That work deserves recognition. When you sell to Anthony's, you're working with people who understand what goes into building a meaningful collection. We don't see a group of coins. We see years of dedication.

That's why we take the time to evaluate collections carefully and explain our assessment. Whether your collection includes a few albums or an entire room of coins, we approach every collection with the same level of attention and respect.

We Review Everything

We Review Everything

One of the most common complaints we hear from collectors is that buyers only want the best material. The rare coins. The key dates. The highest-grade certified pieces. Everything else gets left behind.

That's not how we operate. The key dates matter. The common dates matter. The silver coins matter. The gold coins matter. The certified coins matter. The albums matter. The folders matter. The duplicates matter. The entire collection matters.

Many sellers don't know which coins carry the greatest value. That's perfectly okay. You don't need to sort the collection, separate the valuable coins from the common ones, or guess what may or may not be important. We'll review everything, explain what we see, and evaluate the collection as a whole.

We Come to You

We Come to You

Large collections deserve personal attention. Many valuable collections are stored in homes, banks, offices, or safe deposit boxes. Moving them can be inconvenient and, in some cases, stressful.

For qualifying collections, Anthony's travels directly to you. We regularly meet clients at homes, offices, banks, and safe deposit boxes.

There's no need to pack boxes of coins, ship valuable collections, or worry about insurance or loss in transit. Instead, we bring the buying process to you. We review the collection in person, answer your questions, and, if we reach an agreement, provide immediate payment.

Direct Sale vs. Consignment

Why Not Consign?

Consignment works well for some sellers. Auctions have their place. But they aren't the right choice for everyone. Selling through an auction often means waiting weeks or even months before the collection is sold. There may be seller commissions, shipping expenses, insurance costs, photography fees, catalog fees, and market uncertainty. Even after the sale is complete, payment may not arrive immediately.

Anthony's offers a different approach. We review the collection. We make one competitive offer. If you accept, payment is made immediately. No waiting. No commissions. No uncertainty. Just a straightforward transaction designed to make selling your collection as simple as possible.

We come to you. You're paid in full, on the spot.
eBay Proof

A Reputation Built on Trust

Anthony's has been actively buying and selling collectible coins for decades. As an established eBay seller since 1997, we've built relationships with collectors throughout the country and continue to market collectible coins to a large customer base. As an active eBay seller since 1997, we've successfully sold hundreds of thousands of collectible items to buyers around the world.

That active buying and selling network allows us to purchase collections regularly and make competitive offers based on today's market. Rather than relying on consignment or waiting for an auction to determine the outcome, we're able to purchase collections directly and provide immediate payment. Whether you're selling a single album or a lifetime collection, you can feel confident knowing you're working with an established buyer that has built its reputation through consistent service and long-term relationships with collectors.

Estates & Heirs

Selling an Estate Collection

Many of the collections we purchase were assembled over decades and eventually passed down to family members. If you've inherited a coin collection, you may not know exactly what you have. That's completely understandable.

Some collections are neatly organized in albums. Others are stored in boxes, envelopes, or safe deposit boxes. Some include handwritten notes from the original collector. Others have never been inventoried.

You don't need to identify every coin before contacting us, research values online, or separate the better coins from the common ones. We'll review the entire collection and explain what we're seeing throughout the process.

We regularly work with estate executors, trustees, attorneys, adult children, spouses, and families settling estates. Our goal is to make the selling process as straightforward as possible while treating every collection with the respect it deserves.
