This coin shop is amazing, i found coins i have never seen before and the prices are very fair compared to the other coin shops in town. They have two locations now, one on Meadow...

I had been given a small amount of coins to add to my collection from family, relatively new to collecting at the time I was astonished by what I had been given. A very rare 1913-...

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/25/2014

the review below by Charles M. is probably a real , honest review. Joseph and Chris are great numismatic minds. And here's the specifics: They worked at American Coin Express for a very brief time about 2 years ago. In fact, Joseph was Chris's uncle, and would only be there a few days a YEAR. Chris was working at this store and was financing almost all of the purchases because the owner Andrew Rosenberg, was flat broke, The arrangment was that Chris would buy coins that came in (because he had the money) and when they sold, Chris would get about 85% of the profit and Andrew would get the crumbs, but he had no choice...he was dirt broke and his ""employee"" had all the money. So this went on for awhile. The ""owner"" being the begger. Chris left and shortly after, all of the stores closed (only two left at that point of the three). They have been closed for about a year. Andrew is working out of his car. The stores are a dusty reminder of what lying and theivery will bring you. Joseph and Chris are legitimate numismatists....Andrew Rosenberg is nothing more than an actor. And the curtains have closed. oh, the stores too! hahahahahahahaha more

VERY professional and personable people at the Sunset location. INTEGRITY ++. Have been to most of the shops in Las Vegas but met none to equal the welcome and knowledge of Joseph and Chris. Don't take anyone's word for it - stop and see for yourself. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 10/31/2012

JOSEPH S.\r \r READ THE REVIEWS AND BELIEVE THEM. THE OWNER ANDREW ROSENBERG IS UNBELIEVEABLE. FIRST OF ALL HE WON'T TELL YOU WHAT THE BASIS OF IS OFFER IS AND IF PRESSED HE WILL YELL OBSCENITIES. HONESTLY I COULD NOT PRINT ON THIS PAGE THE WORDS AND NAMES HE CALLED ME. HE HAS SERIOUS ANGER MANAGEMENT ISSUES. STAY AWAY!\r \r more

Beware! Don't let your stuff out of your sight! Thieves! 1/14/2012

I had been given a small amount of coins to add to my collection from family, relatively new to collecting at the time I was astonished by what I had been given. A very rare 1913-S ""V"" nickel. I was so surprised and thought, ""I must be wrong"", so I decided to take it to a few shops to see if any of them could provide a clearer picture of the coin. As it was I had a 30x magnification loop, which by the way was far more powerful than most all of the shops & dealers I met with, the only shop to provide something which could come close to this was American Coin Express. I was at the Sunset Location and the guy there was really polite, honest and even seemed to genuinely want to help; suggesting I go to the Meadows Lane location because they had a 30x Microscope. Although it was the same Power or Magnification, the added luxury of having a stationary view port with a much more sensitive adjustment dial was far more beneficial than holding my loop in hand while closing one eye and moving both the loop and my face closer or further from the coin to provide a clearer image. more

Stay Away from This Place! 7/2/2011

I know something about coins having working as a numismatist several years back at the biggest coin company in the U.S. Recently I went into American Coin Express at their Sunset location to sell some circulated Morgan and Peace silver dollars. I had spoke on the phone with Dennis and it seemed like it might be a reputable business. When I came in, the first thing I could tell is Dennis didn't know much about coins. He had to look at two coin books to know which coins were common dates. Then he offered me a price which was 35% below the melt value of the silver in the coins, which is ridiculous and much lower than any other dealer quote in town. He obviously thought I didn't know any better. Needless to say, I decided to take my business else where and so should you. This place preys on gullible customers! more

Different locations are night and day 11/10/2010

The reason for such varying reviews most likely depends on individual stores. The one on Meadows, off Decatur, is one of the shadiest stores I've ever been in. They offered me $400 flat for $50.25 face value on pre-64 silver coins (11/9/10), where the Sahara location offered me $829 an hour later. When I started to walk away, the 2 went into the back (obviously not wanting to discuss prices in front of other customers), and came back with a $600 offer. I managed not to laugh. When the other store used a machine to count the money, I was missing $2 face ($34 cash). By that time, I didn't demand a hand count, I just took the money, but I suspect the machine was correct and that $2 face was missing. I tries to warn the guy who owned the (new) Sahara store that the Decatur store was going to give him a bad reputation. He just shrugged and said they get a very different clientel. I will probably go to Sahara Coins in the future. more

Helped my sister when she needed car payment! 4/28/2010

My sister couldn't make her car payment and she needed money fast. She got coins from my dads collection and two gold 1 ounce bars. I told her that I have bought some coins from a store that I dont want to mention but saw a commercial while watching the news a couple days before and told her it was closer and we can try there as well. So I called to both places and and American coin gave me close to spot and the other store gave me 150 under spot. So I decided we would go to American Coin Express. They were friendly to my sister and I! I have gone back to them twice to add to my collection of Peace dollars. They are even keeping there eyes out for an 1928 Peace dollar that is Graded by ANACS, PCGS, Or NGC! They took my name and number when they will call me when they get that. one in. I am looking forward to that day. If you need money fast and have coins or gold I would go to them. Pros: Close by Cons: nothing really more

OMG! This place is terrible! Worst Coin Shop Ever! 4/16/2010

Wow i just cant wrap my head around what took place at this store. I think i just met the troll behind the rock from my nightmares as a kid. My granpa passed and left my gramma his coin collection he had assemble over 70 years. Some very cool stuff (i know next to nothing about coins). I told her we needed to take them to the 3 biggest dealers in town and get the best offer. We went to two other dealers (one on east Sahara that offered us $15,500 for everything, One on west Sahara that offered us $18,830) and then to American Coin Express. The buyer just grunted when i told him of our loss and then went about telling me how common everything was and how little value it had. He even said ""basically your grandfather bought junk for his collection"". He then was kind enough to offer my gramma $3763. for our collection. This should be against the law don't you think? If we had not gone to any other dealers we would have never known. It is not only ""buyer beware"" but Seller beware as well. I hope someone reads this before going in with their collection. Pros: They have an Exit door Cons: They have a entrance door more

Must see coin shop! 12/9/2008

This coin shop is amazing, i found coins i have never seen before and the prices are very fair compared to the other coin shops in town. They have two locations now, one on Meadows lane and the other on Sunset Rd. I visited both locations and they are great, i do most of my selling at the sunset store and the buying at the meadows. Great coin place to check out! more

Offered me so little for my coins I thought i was in a dream. 8/8/2008

I had shopped around town and online for a reputable Coin Dealer to sell my Grampa's Coin Collection too and had been to several coin dealers over the last few days when i went in to American Coin Express. I had just left a coin dealer on West Sahara where i got and appraisal of $6,730.00 for my coins and currency. I offered to show Rick (i think that was his name) my coins. He thumbed through my 4 books of Morgan Dollars and said ""The market is pretty low on these right now. Even so I can give you 950.00 for the books."" OMG! It takes a lot to get me to sit down and write about my experience with a business. I only do so when i think the service is exceptionaly good or really really bad. Well this coin store is the worst. There should be a 20/20 story done on this place. I just feel sorry for the unsuspecting ones that went before me.... Pros: had a business license Cons: HAD A BUSINESS LICENSE more

AVOID!!! 7/10/2008

I couldn't believe my ears. I went in to American Coin express, and brought along several coins that were once graded by PCGS, which is a major coin grading service, and are considered the front runner in the industry. The coins were still in the holders they come in. I was offered 40% lower for my collection than what I was offered at the Sahara coin store. I was so shocked by the insanely low number that I asked the guy working there if he could repeat it. Once he did, I told him how much more I was offered at the other store(sahara coins store), and if he could match it. He very rudely told me ""not a chance, guess we're done then""...and turned and walked out of the room! Not only are they rude, they are paying shameful amounts for older, collectible coins!! Pros: hmm.... Cons: many more
