"Hands down my favorite coin shop in NC. The guys in there are so pleasant to be around and did not hesitate to talk to me for a long time. I made a significant purchase and they made me feel like a longtime customer. Will be back VERY frequently!"
Feb 2024
"These guys are good people and love what they do. I went there today and they not only helped me but the taught me about coin errors. They gave me forms to send off a coin for grading and walked me through the process. The prices are very reasonable.I enjoy going there and go often. If you go car pool and drive a small car because the parking lot holds like 6 cars and there are two businesses. I wish I could give them six stars! Great place if you enjoy coins and learning more about the hobby"

"Brian and his team know their stuff, don't play games with prices, and have a great collection of coins and bullion that are sold at reasonable prices. I've bought and sold to them multiple times and always am pleased with whatever I buy or what they offer. They stand behind everything they sell and as a stacker and numismatic collector I appreciate the wealth of knowledge they have. I no longer have to purchase from SD, Amex, etc and wait to for my bullion and it helps support local (and their prices are just as good as online sellers)"

"Visited while on vacation and really enjoyed my time here. It was during a crazy market where nothing was available in any coin shop. They did not increase their prices to try and take advantage of the situation; even during a time of low stock. I will definitely start here every time I'm in Wilmington!"
Sept 2022
"Sold an estate worth of assorted coins and medals. Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff and I was given a fair price for everything."
May 2023
"Have frequented The Coin Market for years and have always found the folks very knowledgeable and helpful. Have made several purchases over that time and have always been very happy with their selection and price. When I have sold items to them, they have been professional and honest with the prices paid. I recommend The Coin Market to anyone looking to buy or sell coins, currency, or old gold & silver."
