What does John Hodson Professional Numismatist buy and sell?

Hodson Coins buys and sells U.S. and world coins, gold and silver bullion, collectible currency, vintage and estate jewelry, loose diamonds, watches, and a variety of collectibles (including sportscards and memorabilia).

Can I sell my gold or coins directly to you?

Yes! We buy gold, silver, and coins at competitive prices. Bring your items in for a no-obligation offer.

How do I know if my coins or collectibles are valuable?

Our experts can help you determine value based on rarity, condition, demand, and historical significance. Even common items can sometimes be worth more than expected.

What types of items do you appraise?

We specialize in appraising fine jewelry, vintage items, rare coins, gold, silver, and a wide range of collectibles. Whether you're looking for an insurance valuation or preparing to sell, we provide accurate, professional assessments.

Do you provide appraisals and estate evaluations?

Yes. The shop offers coin appraisals and works with estates (buying single pieces or entire collections). If you’re settling an estate or liquidating a collection, you can bring items in during business hours or call to discuss on‑site/large‑collection options.

Can you help with authentication, grading advice, and submissions?

Yes. As a PCGS Authorized Dealer, John Hodson can advise on which pieces merit third‑party grading, discuss estimated value ranges, and help you understand submission options and expected turnaround before you decide to grade. (Final grading is performed by PCGS; fees and timelines are set by the grading service.)
