Coin Retailers
Hundreds of thousands of Americans have bought coins from a variety of retail coin dealers over the past quarter century. Typically these dealers tend to market their products and services by various methods such as direct mail, radio and TV advertising and display advertisements in newspapers and magazines. More recently, these firms have marketed themselves over the world wide web. They conduct their businesses chiefly via telemarketing and mail order.
As with any investment or expensive collectible item, you should thoroughly research the background of any retail coin dealer that you are considering doing business with. There are advantages and disadvantages to doing business with a retail dealer. One of the advantages is the fact that they tend to provide educational materials and advice about coin collecting and investing strategies. However, one pays a price for these services and retailers, as their label implies, mark up their coins so that their prices tend to be higher than those encountered in auctions and elsewhere in the numismatic marketplace.
