I was looking to sell my American Silver Eagle coins and contacted three coin dealers in Southern California, including locations in Downey, Alhambra, and Placentia. The Coin Corner in Placentia offered me the best price. Sandy was very helpful and efficient throughout the entire sales process and made everything easy. During the same visit, she was also very helpful and patient with my mom while she was selling some of her gold jewelry. I appreciated the time she took to explain things and work with my mom. Thanks again! read more

Tom & Dave are both friendly, professional and helpful. I went in today for the 1st time to sell some old coin sets & bullion, they quickly calculated the pricing for me and gave me a good deal & cash payment. They're a trustworthy shop with a lot of inventory and credibility. read more

Looking at my mother's old coins and eBay said it's worth 50k bucks! I came to coin corner and they were honest. They told me it was just better to spend it. She didn't waste my time and didn't charge me a dime for her time. I appreciate the honesty and service. read more

Had to update this because every time I go I get excellent customer service and fair prices. Traded in some gold and silver because the prices are flying right now. Thank you coin corner. read more

Excellent coin selling experience. They also buy gold jewelry for melt. The store is clean & bright, the owners warm, welcoming and informative. We shopped around looking to get the best possible price for our coins, and others locally paid far less. We made hundreds more by working with the Coin Corner. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

The Coin Corner is amazing! It's beautiful, organized, and welcoming! Went for the first time and was very impressed. Store owner was very helpful. Such a great selection... Can't wait to go again! read more

If you're looking for a trustworthy and welcoming coin shop, I highly recommend The Coin Corner! Every time I stop by. I'm greeted with friendly, knowledgeable service and a great atmosphere.

It's always a good day when you visit The Coin Corner. Highly recommend checking them out! read more

They were very helpful in providing information on a coin my friend and I had questions about. We were informed what kind of coins were deemed valuable in a polite and professional manner. read more

The husband and wife who own this establishment are very friendly and buy your coins/bills at a great and fair price. The wife took the time out to explain to me all of the different foreign bills that I had and its history. I've been here several times and it's always been a pleasant experience for me. Oh, and they are not racist. Ha ha. I saw that on someone else's Yelp post and have to agree with him. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

This is a review from my visit over a year ago. I called around other shops asking about buy/sell prices and TCC had the best prices. I ended up selling some gold coins and bars and the process with quick. The people behind the counter were very nice and they had a large collection of silver bullion and numismatic coins. read more

Fast service, friendly workers. Been there twice to buy silver, will go again. Limited hours so plan ahead. They do answer questions by email, thanks for answering! read more

Honest business to deal with. Dave and Tom are top notch coin dealers. Highly recommend if you are looking at purchasing or selling any coins. read more

Fantastic store! Silver is doing well so I sold some of my excess silver eagles. Transaction was super fast and management was very friendly. I will definitely be coming back to unload more in the future and even perhaps buy some special coins. There selection is so vast, it's overwhelming. A++ Business read more

Sold a mix of silver coin and bullion. Shopped around and was given most fair value here.

Great service excellent parking very professional, located the coin corner through yelp very reputable friendly service will be back.

The Coin Corner wanted to give me $60 for an ingot that was 1.85 troy oz of silver, value $135....Nope !

Spot is up but that doesn't mean you should stop buying. I love visiting Dave at the Coin Corner because he always give me fair pricing and treats me like a respected customer. I can't wait to be back more often read more

I've been wanting to liquidate my late uncle's coin collection which was one of the many hobbies he enjoyed. I saw the positive reviews about this shop and decided to visit on a weekday unannounced. Parking is no issue since its located in a small strip center. Dave the owner informed me of his passion of coins and how he was a prior client here for decades and purchased the business a few years ago. Dave took the time to go through each individual coins in my tin box and listed the value each coin and gave me what I thought was a very fair offer - which I accepted. I would highly recommend Dave for his professionalism and straight forward business practices. read more

We had such a wonderful experience selling our coins and old jewelry. The owners were very friendly and professional. I felt like they gave us a good deal and were very honest. Highly recommend if you are looking to buy or sell coins. Great shop! read more

A terrific store, with plenty to buy and sell: a great selection, excellent service, and a true value in terms of experience and kindness. Five stars. You will not be disappointed. Great pricing. read more

Highly recommended. These folks seem to have EVERYTHING gold & silver-related. It isn't a large store, I don't know how they pack so much variety into their shop, but they somehow do. Their prices are excellent. The staff here (I've only met two people, whom I assume are the owners) are kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. If you've got a question, or a need, they take the time to answer whatever questions you might have. At least that's what they've done with me each time I visit. It's also an oddly comfortable place. It has a very homey feel to it. Even the customers I've encountered when I've visited were all super nice and polite. It was like everyone there were friends, drawn together by their love of precious metals. I suspect my comment seems weird, but that's how it feels every time I go there. These folks also purchase coins, bullion, & precious metal. Underscoring that, every time I've been there sellers have outnumbered buyers 3 to 2. PLUS, they have good, free parking, although the parking lot is smaller than I'd like. I get a little nervous parking close by, figuring some ne'er-do-well could be casing me as a mark to rob, but I've never had any problems with that, so perhaps my fears are neurotic and unjustified, or perhaps I've only been there on good days, or maybe it's just the area is so nice that there aren't any, or very, very few thieves. I'm very inexperienced when it comes to buying or selling metals, but the folks here made it painless for me. A job well done, and a store well run. read more

The Coin Corner has an amazing selection of coins. They had the Liberty coins I have been wanting and with a lot to choose from. They also have such an amazing collection of coins and bullion at fair prices. They answered all my questions and taught me additional things about the coins I was buying. I will be back again very soon. read more

Even though he didn't have the item I was looking for (it was a shot in the dark anyway) he pointed me in the right direction and told me where I might find one. While looking through his collection, he had many very well priced items and I can't want to go back and pick up some silver rounds! read more

Absolutely love this place. I found them on eBay and decided to visit them in person while in Anaheim. Great selection, friendly staff, and great prices. The next time I am down south I will be stopping by again. read more

My first visit to The Coin Corner in Placentia. GREAT coin experience in a wonderful coin shop. Met Dave and Tom and they could not have been more friendly and helpful. They have a large selection of coins at very reasonable prices! Coin collecting is a wonderful hobby and I highly recommend The Coin Corner to not only beginners but also long-time coin collectors. I'm looking forward to my next visit... read more

I couldn't be happier with my experience today! Been trying to decide who to go to and because of past experiences with selling a gold bracelet really didn't trust anyone. Very nice and took their time with some gold pieces I had. Will definitely be back with old coins I have. read more

Quick service. Was in and out in less than 5 mins. I sold a valuable coin and was given a fair price. Store clean and neat, a coin collectors dream. Also it's close to Kelly's Tavern where my co workers go for happy hour. read more

Very fair and honest. Great selection, the best part is the staff. I always learn something new. Great prices and conversions. Thank you

In and out in 5 minutes. Great service. And an excellent supply of all kinds of gold and silver bars and coins.

Great spot! Was my first time ever trying to sell a coin and they gave me an amazing value. Super friendly. Left happy and satisfied! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell or buy Gold coins. Thank you! read more

I forgot to mention this in my previous review, but one thing that really stood out to me about Dave was his honesty and professionalism. When I visited the store to sell some of my silver, he didn't just offer me the standard spot price. Some of the pieces I brought in had premiums, and instead of lumping them all together at spot, Dave recognized their value and offered me more for those specific items. That level of integrity is rare, and it really shows that Dave goes the extra mile to treat his customers fairly. He's not just trying to make a quick profit--he genuinely looks out for his customers' best interests. This experience has earned my trust, and I'll continue doing business with him because I know I'm in good hands. If you're looking for a trustworthy coin shop to buy from or sell to, the coin corner is the place to go. read more

A delightful surprise! I decided to capture some profit by selling a portion of my silver bullion. Their team was quick to respond and offered a fair price given the current market conditions. I walked in, had the metals evaluated, and left with cash in hand within 10 minutes. It was an incredibly smooth and positive experience! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to do something similar. I can see why they have a 5 star rating. read more

Dave and his staff were courteous and genuine. They didn't treat me like a number or a mark (or at least I didn't feel like one) and answered all my questions. I've had my fair share of poor experiences with coin shops and unreasonable markups when buying and markdowns when selling and have mostly resorted to purchasing my bullion online. I ended up trading in a bunch of gold grams for some cash and a tube of generic silver rounds. I can definitely see myself getting more silver for my stacking needs down the road here! Happy stacking! read more

I sold some coins there today. I was very pleased with the friendliness of the man and lady behind the counter. There were no surprises. The transaction went smoothly and the price was very fair. I am definitely going to continue to visit that shop. And they have a very, very nice dog. read more

Came into this shop and was greeted by the owner Dave, Let me just tell you I've contacted many shops and they've all gave me the run around regarding prices on some coins I had inherited and know nothing about. All the other shops where forcing me to schedule and appointment, they never call back unfortunately. Luckily dave told me to come right in and treated me like he's known me for years! Such an amazing shop, owned by an honest family and offered more on my coins then everyone else! Come check them out and you won't be disappointed Cheers, read more

This is a nice little shop where some neat items can be found. After being "greeted" by the surprisingly convincing wax-figure security guard, I set out to finding either: good bullion value relative to spot, some sovereign/semi-numismatic/silver, or just any 2024 released pure bullion currency. Keep in mind that this shop mainly rotates secondary market inventory (rather than receiving orders from bulk mint orders or major distributors). So, they're going to have less of the newly-released or special orders...and more of some random gems, good prices over spot. They have ample silver Austrian Phils, Maples and an offering of US Silver Eagles. They also have a good amount of recognizable generic rounds. As far as numismatic and semi-numismatic items, I saw a very nice 1974 Panama 20 Balboa coin (3.9 oz, .925). The person who helped me was good. He was helpful enough and pleasant. I ended up leaving with some Mexican silver. I would go back if I were in the area. read more

Very knowledgeable owner and staff. They were fair with their pricing and gave a good amount of $$ for the items I brought. I am from New York, so I'm always skeptical of places like this. The Coin Corner was legit, and the owner was professional, friendly, and very nice. I highly recommend. Thank you! (And yes, I got my NY pizza as soon as I got home...) read more

David is a great owner. I mistakenly left a review for some other "Coin Corner". David didn't get upset and handled it very diplomatically. Never been to the store, but I can tell from our call that he is very professional. He handled my complaint about a different store the way you should. If I am ever in CA I will stop by. I apologize again. read more
