What clients say about Shaffer Rare Coins in Niles (OH)
Nice little spot. Got his son there who seems to be going in the family business. We couldnt make a deal unfortunately. Still, I would visit the shop in the future to make some purchases.
I felt like I received fair and competitive compensation for my old coin collection. Highly recommend you include them in your quotations search before selling your old coins.
Fair, honest and professional. I sold some coins there today and was given the best value around, I know b/c I called several other coin shops. Josh actually talked me out of selling a coin set that had sentimental value. I'm glad he did or I definitely would have had 'sellers remorse'. Highly recommend!
Brought in a silver collection and Joshua was very fair with his offer. Another place gave me such a low offer. Will definitely come back to Shaffer Rare coins in the future.
Went and sold some gold and silver josh is very reasonable with prices rather buying or selling dealt with a lot of coin shops josh will be the only person I buy and sell from for now on.
Yesterday was our second trip to visit Josh. Using his advice from our first visit, we segregated our inherited collection into two groups -- the face-value collections (e.g., National Park quarters) and the "rare" coins worth more than face value. We left the collection with him, went to lunch, then returned to an offer was higher than we expected (based on our own research). Josh knows the business well and clearly loves it. A well-earned 5 stars.
I have been going to and doing business
Josh for a while. He has educated me and has been very fair with prices. But very important to me he is upfront and honest!!
I went to 4 different shops to see how much I could get for the gold jewelry I had. The business paid the highest of the 4 by a decent margin. If you want to get the most money, this is the shop to go to.
Josh spent about an hour with us to offer a quick overview of a coin collection we inherited. He showed encyclopedic knowledge of numismatics (a new word in my vocabulary), but most important he was candid about what had value and what did not. I think I know a straight shooter when I meet one. We opted not to sell the collection for now, as it just doesn't have "life-changing" value. But we now know what we have, and when it comes time to sell we'll return to Shaffer Rare Coins. (FYI: We drove 40 minutes to see Josh, based on the excellent reviews he gets on line. We have had two assessments of the collection. Both were similar, though Josh's purchase offer was about 10% higher than one of his competitors.)
I gave this so called rare coin dealer a call regarding a coin I wanted to sell, not once but twice. He laughed at me, not even Making an offer . All he had for me was wise remarks. I don't know how he stays in business.
First time visitor at Schaffer’s Rare Coins, which is over an hour away from my home. The Owner Josh seemed very professional and was very reactive to my coin collecting needs/wants. His shop’s prices are fair, and had a little bit of everything on hand. Nice place.
I have called this shop on a couple occasions asking questions and have stopped in a couple times. Even though the shop seems to be pretty busy with a flow of calls and customers the man I spoke with on phone and/or in person on different occasions despite my no having any knowledge of coins at all was very patient and very helpful. I do know they are very busy so I was extremely grateful they took the time to answer more than a handful of questions about a coin collection I.... Let's just say I thought I had. They were very informative and seemed very caring. They also made feel a little better by letting me know even though my collection is not as valuable as I thought it most likely will be one day.
This was very uplifting since my little collection is for my boys or their children possibly.
So in God's time if something is meant to be it will be in his time.
Thank you so very much for your time, help, and care that was given. I greatly appreciate you and your staff.
Please don't ever change ??❤️
Not only does he have one of the best stores in Ohio, but maybe the East Coast. Great selection, very knowledgeable, and Extremely Honest. If you don't know the coin business, he is your guy. He will answer any questions you might have and walk you through so you make the right decisions when either purchasing or selling. I have been in the business for 45 years and I could not be more impressed. You must make Shaffer Coins a priority if you are interested in the coin business and meet Josh. I'm sure you will be as impressed as I am.
Josh is very personable and knowledgeable on coins. He offered me a fair price for coins I was looking to sell and great prices for coins for my type set book.

Josh is a stand up guy and always a pleasure to deal with. His prices are very reasonable, and he is always willing to help or answer questions. I recommend stopping into his shop or browsing his online listings, he’s got a wide variety of inventory.
