The good guys to sell your coins to
Passionate coin collectors revolutionizing coin trading
Selling your coins doesn’t need to be so frustrating
When it comes to our coin collections and investments, all of us strive to make the best financial decisions. That isn’t so easy when you are faced with disappointing options for selling a collection that you’ve personally spent many long hours compiling yourself or have been left in a will by a loved one. As collectors ourselves from a young age, we understand how frustrating it is when an offer for your collection is way lower than anticipated. (Especially since you likely had to lug it all the way to the local coin trader just to show them what you have!)
We care about your coins
Coinfully is a family business, with family values that extend to our clients. We are headed up by brothers Travis and Wyatt McDonald, who followed their mother’s passion for numismatics back in the 1990s. Working for prestigious globally-recognised numismatic institutions, the pair gained the experience they needed to shape Coinfully’s groundbreaking business model. We entered the market to give the selling public a painless and transparent avenue to value and sell coins through a simple online appraisal process.

Selling coins the Coinfully way
We developed a 3-Step Clear Appraisal Plan to ensure customers get a market leading price without any of the usual hassle involved with packaging up your collection for a face to face valuation. Our process is all taken care of online. And in some cases we also provide a ‘concierge’ service where we’ll travel to you to appraise your coins at your home. We always aim to save you time and get you the best price for your collection. Here’s what the plan looks like:
-
Call or Email to Discuss Your Collection with a Numismatic Expert
It is likely that you have been slogging through lots of bad information trying to research your collection, we want to get you past that stage! Let's start with a discussion about your coins so we can advise on your next steps and how we may be best of service to you. Call us at 704-621-4893 or send an email to info@coinfully.com today.
-
Create Photos or an Inventory Listing
In some cases we will need a little more info about your coin collection. If that is the case, the process is very easy. You simply send us an email or text with some photos or an inventory listing, see our photo guide for some tips on how to take a perfect coin photo.
-
Ship Coins or Meet in Person and Get Paid a Top of Market Price
For very large or historically important collections, we offer a concierge service where one of our representatives travels to meet you at a place of your choosing in order to appraise and make a top-of-market offer on your collection. For most collections customers prefer to ship directly to our facility for a one-day turnaround collection validation and payment. Packages are fully insured by Lloyd's of London and carefully opened under 4k security cameras. In just one business day, your collection is verified and you get paid!
We’ll even help you get started on the research yourself
We know people like to carry out their own research when it comes to understanding the value of your coins. That’s why we created an Instant value guide too, as part of our mission to help educate people about their coins. The guide gives you everything you need to know to find out if your collection is valuable in less than five minutes without the need to contact an expert!
You’ll find out about:
- The rarity scale
- Precious metals in your coins
- The four factors that make your coins valuable
- How to care for your collection – and preserve its value!
