Lost Dutchman Rare Coins
I've never purchased anything from them online, but visit the shop as often as possible.

I dont have local coin shops selling world crowns here in the south. Coin shows do not world coin dealers or they sell way over priced. So I have been buying mostly from auctions such as heritage, stacks and glodbergs. Buyer's premium is around 17-18% and its a price I have to pay for not worrying about fakes. I used to buy on ebay but dont do so much lately. Same goes for MAshops and vcoins.

Most coins I buy are on ebay, because:

1) Right now my interest in world coins is pretty eccentric, and if I relied only on local shops/dealers/shows it would take forever to find coins that I desire.
2) I'd love to have a working relationship with a local shop/dealer, but I don't often purchase coins that cost more than $50. Most shops/dealers in my area don't want to bother with low-dollar inventory like that.

Classified ads listing Estate Sales with coins among the items for sale. Sometimes those hosting the Estate Sale will email pics of the coins to help decide if it's worth the trip.
