Coin Shop Remodel!

Webmaster — Tue, 03 May 2011 13:43:09 +0000

The remodel took several months and we had to open the new store in half of the space. While the contractor finished the other half. We’ve had the opportunity to build our inventory of collectable coins, stamps, jewelry and more during this time knowing we’ve have over twice the showroom we had before. Now that we’ve got the new space, it’s hard to think we ever got by on less than half of what we have now.

Silver Service Sets Keep on Serving

tacomacoin.com — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 13:27:04 +0000

Some of these silver service sets are collectible.

Since we buy precious metals either jewelry or bulk, people bring us silver serving sets in hopes that the raw silver is pure enough to be valuable. To clarify silver sets consist of tea silver serving sets, silver coffee serving sets and silver cream and sugar sets. If you have the complete set and it is in good shape, preferably with a keepsake box or case, you’re in luck!

The value of the silver itself depends on the metal itself. Give us a call or use the contact a coin and stamp expert form on the right side of this page to get an idea of what you have. It is possible that you may need to bring in the set to get a firm silver serving set appraisal, but then if you do that we can give you the MONEY, and in today’s economy, that may be exactly what the doctor ordered!

Sell Gold and Jewelry in Tacoma / Seattle

tacomacoin.com — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 13:27:22 +0000

Get rid of that old gold jewelry taking up space and never being used. Most times these old worn and broken jewelry items can bring you a surprising amount of instant cash. NO, you don’t want to mail your gold, silver, platinum and precious metal jewelry to one of the companies that advertise online, you never know what their going to offer until they have your precious collectible coins and jewelry. Here at Tacoma Mall Blvd Coin & Stamp, we always pay a fair price. Recently we had a fairly knowledgable collector come in from out-of-town and wanted us to value a diamond ring with a nice gold setting. He apparently had done plenty of research and had several appraisals on the gold / diamond ring. We gave him our price after doing our own research and he had this to say.

“I knew exactly what the ring was worth and really wanted to find an honest coin and stamp dealer that would also buy gold jewelry at a fair market price”. Well, you people here at the Tacoma Coin are awesome! I don’t live close enough to get in here often but I would trust you enough to mail jewelry to you and get a fair price. I would also feel comfortable buying coins for my coin collection over the phone or on your website.

We always do our best to do the right thing for all our customers. We’ve even sent customers more money after a purchase if we find felt it was appropriate.

Remember – We’re you friend in the Coin, Stamp and used Jewelry business.

Glossary of Coin and Stamp Terms

Bullion Coin

A bullion coin is a coin that is valued by its weight in a specific precious metal.

Collector or Rare Coin

The value of a collector or rare coin is based upon the coin’s rarity, demand, condition and mintage. A collector or rare coin may be worth more than its bullion value.

Spot price

The spot price is the market price for immediate delivery of a commodity, such as gold, silver or platinum. Melt value: Melt value refers to the basic intrinsic bullion value of a coin if melted and sold.

Spread

The spread is the difference between what a dealer will charge to sell an item and what he will pay to purchase it.

Troy ounce

The troy ounce is the measurement used in the pricing of precious metals such as gold and silver. The troy ounce is 480 grains or exactly 31.1034768 grams.

Ask

The price a seller is willing to accept for a security, also known as the offer price. Along with the price, the ask quote will generally also stipulate the amount of the security willing to be sold at that price.

Bid

An offer made by an investor, a trader or a dealer to buy a security. The bid will stipulate both the price at which the buyer is willing to purchase the security and the quantity to be purchased.

Gold as an Investment

tacomacoin.com — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 13:27:12 +0000

Of all the precious metals, gold is the most popular as an investment. Investors generally buy gold as a hedge or safe haven against any economic, political, social or currency-based crises. These crises include investment market declines, burgeoning national debt, currency failure, inflation, war and social unrest. Speculators also buy gold or buy coins from coin and stamp shops early in a bull market and aim to sell it before a bear market begins, in an attempt to gain financially.
