Empowering Collectors, Elevating Coin Sales
Honest Appraisals, Maximum Value
The founders of Mountain View US and Foreign Coins left prestigious roles in conventional coin companies, driven by their desire to improve how collectors can sell their coins. They observed that coin shops sometimes pay as little as 40% of market value for collections and may lack expertise in evaluating niche or foreign coins. Now, as collectors themselves, the team at Mountain View US and Foreign Coins is dedicated to providing a simple and transparent appraisal experience for everyone.
Our goal is to ensure that you receive the highest value for your valuable coin collections. Mountain View US and Foreign Coins is an authorized member of well-regarded rare coin collecting organizations, highlighting our commitment to trust and credibility in our services.
