Disclaimer:  We've always believed that the more collectors know about the history, artistry, and rarity of a coin, the more fun they'll have collecting rare coins. As you might expect, there are as many opinions on how to collect U.S. Rare Coins as there are collectors. This website shares our point of view based on our areas of expertise and the combined experiences of our staff, the Austin Buying Trust, and many authors who we've enjoyed reading over the years. Like any other rare coin dealer, we will tend to recommend coins that are our favorites. Please relax, read, and enjoy the Rare Coin University from this point of view. We have no tests and no homework.
