Hi I'm looking for coin shops in Northern VA. ( I buy alot on the internet but love to go to shops). Does anybody know of good ones? or even ones to avoid? Thanks C.
Mojo, here are a few I go to: Alexandria Coin Sales 7120 Little River Turnpike Annandale VA 703-354-3700 Century Coins (my favorite) 6436 Brandon Ave. Springfield VA 703-569-0739 Cameo Coins (also great!) 444 Maple Ave. E Vienna VA 703-281-7053
In reguard to Cameo Coins, I went there at least two or three times per week.I was looking to buy gold coins and would buy one or two per week.They also shared a store with a jeweler. I bought a nice cuban link 18k 155gram chain as well.I found the coins in general to be of high quality.I for the life of me can't remember his name or his wife for that matter.I bet he'd remember me by just saying the appliance repairman from Florida.I really like him a great businessman and generally a great guy all around.

Draco, He reminds me of Mel Fisher,the guy who found the Atocha,even down to the gold medallion around his neck.I don't remember his name either,or his wife who is very nice but if I go in the store,he pulls out his tray of ancients for me.Also,if you ask,he has an incredible amount of Byzantine gold in the safe that he will bring out if you ask.
