History

Established in 1984.

I started as a coin collector in Kansas City. I started working at a coin shop when I was 12 and have bought and sold coins professionally since 1980. I opened the store in Morton Grove in 2007 and continue to do several coin shows a month. We specialize in Bullion, Gold Jewelry, Rare Coins, Diamonds and some specific antiques.

We are a family owned business. All of our employees are collectors as well as dealers. We are market makers and buyers for many coins. Each one of our staff specializes in a different aspect of our hobby. We have become the largest full service coin dealer in the area. We stock Coins, supplies, books, jewelry, Lladro, Lalique, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Palladium, investment quality coins as well as collector quality coins. We are always looking to buy and to grow our business.

After cleaning out my parents safety deposit box, I found several old coins that I had no idea what, if anything they were worth. A trip to Morton Grove Coins etc. was worth more than figuring out their worth on line. Knowledgeable staff and very likable. Also took in several gold earrings whose mates never tuned up and to my surprise were worth a good deal. Again David, the owner, was professional and fun to work with. I believe this store is completely trustworthy. Recommend without hesitation.

I met Dave about 7 – 8 years ago, he has given me plenty of knowledge about coins and is always willing to help out any way he can… Thanks for all the love Dave

Prices and selection are ok, but his use of foul language when I was trying to sell some Gold really didn’t sit well with me. I brought him a 1oz Engelhard Gold Bar, he made me an ok offer but seemed really annoyed and condescendin when explaining his offer. When I asked about the fact that it was an Engelhard bar he told me «Engelhard don’t mean sh*t.» Ok, Dave, but why do you have to be so rude about it?

I have been buying coins for just over a year now. My wife and I found Morton Grove coins & collectibles maybe around October last year. Dave has always been very helpful and very knowledgeable. He also has a fresh new selection of bullion and has assisted us when we we had questions (and we’ve had plenty). Highly recommended for newbies. Best customer service of all the shops my wife and I have been to.

I was very impressed with the way I was treated. They took the time to explain and educate me on the appraisal process of the coins I brought in. And even gave me their personal opinion as to what they felt was in my best interest to do. You cannot ask for anything more. I would definitely recommend this business to either sell or to buy.

I’ve been here a few times to purchase foreign currency that I use in my JA classes in schools. They’ve always been enthusiastic and helpful. They seem to have quite a large selection here as well.
I do tend to use another area coin store for certain transactions as I really respect the owners knowledge there. But I’m tempted to give this shop some of my biz as well — they seem to have their act together!

As a newer collector i was afraid of getting taken advantage of because of my lack of knowledge but the owner is always fair & took the time to offer me some free knowledge & reading materials to get me off on the right track. Extremely fair prices

Very nice experience. First time I was ever in a coin shop (so I reserve the 5th star) Sold some silver coins, and David did the whole thing right in front of me. Treated well, will return again.

Great great shop. I sell buy and sell silver and these guys pay the most for scrap and I have even sold them a Tiffany Bowl and they paid me over spot value and more than anyone else offered me!
They weigh your matels right in front of you, tell you the spot price and calculate your total $$ and pay you cash, all in about 5 minutes.

Took some of my gold pieces to a few places in the area for pricing and then I stopped in to Morton Grove Coin and Collectibes, what a shock, they offerred me double of the other stores. The owner couldn’t have been nicer in explaining how the pricing of gold works. Thank you for all your help!
