They only have bullion online but that's okay because I needed that 2011 Australian koala lol. Threw in two 90% halves too for good measure in hopes of getting my first WLH lol should have added a note about that to the order. Oh well silver is silver and I'm sure they are probably cull anyway for that price.

I sent them an email about trying to get WLH as my 90% and was pleasantly surprised by the quick response and their response that they noted my request and let their vault know to try and fulfill my request.
Very respectful, courteous, and professional. I'm excited to see my order, thanks for the suggestion Indian. I'm sure I'll be getting my bullion from them from now on if I don't get it from the mints first.

You have the Internet, how could you find more coins in one spot?

Haha true but I want the experience of looking and conversing with a fun dealer that's maybe even a little kooky lol
I've made a couple purchases online at collectons.com have you ever made a purchase there? I've been happy with the quality and quantity of their offerings but they seem a bit expensive, not prohibitively though by any means and I usually stick to their sale items.

No postage, no lost in mail, no wrong coin sent, no insurances, no no return policy, etc. And at a coin show you can shop around, get to know dealers, ask questions, learn things you never knew. I've never been able to figure out why some areas have coin shows every week and other places have none at all. |

Coin shows are by far the best place to buy. You can see what you are buying in hand and shop for the best price from many dealers. They just don't come around an area close to you that often.

Yes, the coin show I went to was tons of fun but I think it only comes once a year. There is another show that comes a couple times a year about 30 minutes away but haven't been able to find any details about it yet.

Coin shows are fun and you can easliy compare coins and do a little haggling.

In case anyone else in Jacksonville or visiting is looking for a LCS I have found one that I greatly enjoyed. It's not very big but the selection is pretty nice and the owner is a nice guy and has very fair prices and is willing to look for specific pieces for you. I went in the other day and we chatted for a while about the collections I am starting while I searched through his circulated Walking Liberty halves. I picked up a 1937 and a 1938 both P mints that I would grade as high VG10 low F12 for $12.50 each. I'm definitely going back when I get my next paycheck. If anyone wants to check it out the shop is called B&T Coins and Militaria and it's located at 6630 Beach Blvd. Jacksonville, FL 32216 (not sure if I'm allowed to post the address, if not please remove). He said they go to a few coin shows throughout the year too. |

I use legacy coins very frequently, they are located in orange park and is a nice shop, not the best but very good. I highly recommend you going there and if you do let me know I would be happy to meet you there, its always nice to meet other collectors.
