Most coin shop locators online are built by publishers or industry groups — and they only show partner shops. That means independent stores, hybrid coin-and-game shops, and specialty back-issue dealers get left out entirely. If you've ever used one of those locators and wondered why it shows only 2-3 shops in a major city, that's why.
CoinsNearMe is different. It's the largest independent coin shop locator online — 2,250+ verified shops across every US state and Canadian province, with no partnership requirement. If a shop sells coins and can be verified through Google Maps, owner submissions, or community reports, it's in the directory.
There are several coin shop locators online. Here's how they stack up:

Not every coin shop offers every service. Use these quick-access service categories to find the right type of store:
Stores with strong inventory of classic US coinage — Morgan and Peace dollars, Lincoln cents, type coins, and key dates.
Specialists in world, foreign, and ancient coinage — from modern world issues to Greek and Roman antiquities.
Authorized PCGS/NGC dealers that accept your coins and submit them for professional grading on your behalf.
Stores that offer in-store appraisals of coins, collections, and estate finds — many also facilitate PCGS/NGC submissions.
Shops that actively buy coin collections, individual key dates, and estate sales.
Beyond brick-and-mortar shops — upcoming coin shows, collector conventions, and expos across North America.
Not all coin shops are the same. Once you've located nearby stores, here's what separates a great coin shop from an average one:
A good shop receives US coins every Wednesday and can set up a pull list for titles you follow. Ask about their pull-list discount — many offer 10-20% off for active subscribers.
Deep back-issue inventory matters less than how it's organized. The best shops have bagged-and-boarded key issues displayed on walls, with searchable boxes by title and era.
If you're grading books, a PCGS/NGC authorized dealer saves you shipping costs, handles insurance, and usually gets you a better submission tier. Filter for PCGS/NGC drop-off to find one nearby.
Good staff can recommend runs, spot variants, and help you build a collection. This is the biggest differentiator between a coin shop and a generic pop culture store.
Shops that host appraisals, Free Coin Day events, and release parties build community. Check our Events page for shops actively doing this.
Get in front of thousands of collectors searching for coin shops near them. Standard listings are always free — or boost your visibility with a featured placement.
