Citadel Coins in Halifax. If you go through Moncton, or even Saint John, there are a couple worth checking in on: Saint John - Loyalist Coins and Stamps and/or Fundy Coins; Moncton - The Coin Cabinet

 The Coin Cabinet in Moncton, N.B. would be the finest in N.B. Glenn

My guess is that all eastern coin shops (ie: including Quebec) would be fairly well versed in English,.. .. and therefore should not be a problem for you.
Remember that they are collecting/dealing in Canadian coins.
Safe Travels ..!!

If you are driving, try Alliance Coins in Almonte (small town west of Ottawa). Very nice shop. In Ottawa, there is also Ashbrook on Richmond Road. But again, it depends on what you are looking for.

Well Frontier Gold Mart in Belleville (in the middle of Toronto and Kingston) has a good selection of coins. He has a huge bin of small scents, silver. Just nice to look through and I got some really good deals on some of them.

I would for sure say you need to hit the Coin Cabinet in Moncton. I have been there and Brian is one of the best in Eastern Canada.

Can anyone clear up the difference between the coin cabinet and hub city coins? They have different phone numbers, each has a website, but they have the same physical address on Main Street in Moncton.

Unless you were really quick, the National Currency Collection Museum closed on July 2nd, for a long-term renovation. http://www.currencymuseum.ca

They have different phone numbers, each has a website, but they have the same physical address on Main Street in Moncton. Hub City coins is the upstairs office, owned by Fraser Frizzell. At coin shows, Fraser's case is usually heaped with bullion... It looks like Fraser set up an entire Canadian-based coin forum recently, but so far, looks unpopulated, perhaps it is a wide net cast out there for buying collections? http://www.hubcitycoins.com/forum/index.phpI joined for the heck of it...

I was very quick... Second in line on Canada Day before opening. I even got to talk with the curator about the new location! (The exhibits were apparently sealed shut in the 80s, so the new museum should have much more modern preservation tactics)

Well, it took a couple of days, but the Hub City coin site has coughed a bit to life with a response from Fraser on a few posts...
Ironically, there are more posts there in the last two weeks, than there has been on CCRS in two months... Just sayin'....
