Good Coin Dealer (or web site) Help Needed

Postby DuckTales253 » Wed Jun 20, 2012 6:15 pm

Can anyone recommend a good coin dealer, preferably online, or one that sends out lists or a catalog? I haven't bought coins from any dealer for almost a decade, and most of my sources are out of date. In particular, I would like one that sells coins by date and mint (specific coins to fill sets) rather than generic lots or bullion coins as is common today. Just looking to pick up a few things, plus I like browsing :-)

Thanks!

In addition to coin dealers check eBay and ha.com

No one will have more selection than the combination of those 2 sources.

I've filled probably 50% of my holes via eBay.

I do use eBay for some coins, but it is seldom that you can get everything you want from one seller, and that opens you up to paying too much on shipping. Not to mention the fees. Asking here on Realcent has been working nicely!
