Coin and Gold Buyers Serving Aurora, CO

Aurora started out as the town of Fletcher in the 1890s and took its present name in 1907. Today it reaches across Adams, Arapahoe and Douglas counties and ranks as the third largest city in Colorado. The oldest part of town runs along East Colfax Avenue, with post-war neighborhoods like Hoffman Heights filling in around it as Denver spread east.

Military service runs deep here. Fitzsimons Army Hospital opened in 1918 to treat soldiers home from World War I, and President Eisenhower recovered there after his heart attack in 1955. Lowry Air Force Base sat on the city's western edge, and Buckley, now Buckley Space Force Base, still operates on the east side. A military family's dresser drawer often holds coins from postings in Germany, Korea, Japan or the Philippines, mixed in with U.S. silver brought home from leave.

The Army closed Fitzsimons in 1999, and the grounds became the Anschutz Medical Campus, home to the University of Colorado's health sciences schools and hospitals. Doctors, researchers and nurses from around the world work there, and Aurora is one of the most international cities in the state. Along Havana Street and East Colfax, Korean, Ethiopian, Vietnamese and Mexican shops sit side by side, and many of the families who run them have lived in Aurora for decades.

That mix shows up in what Aurora sellers bring us. British Sovereigns, Mexican 50 pesos, Chinese Gold and Silver Pandas and foreign coins from a career in the service all cross the table, along with high-karat jewelry from South Asia, the Middle East and East Asia that often tests at 22K or 24K. Every world coin is checked for date, metal and collector demand. Each piece of jewelry gets the same non-destructive karat test and calibrated weighing as a 14K chain, and pre-1965 dimes, quarters and halves are priced as 90% silver once any better dates are pulled.

Once you book, we agree on a meeting place in Aurora together, and families with a large collection or a full estate can ask about a home visit. You are welcome to bring a family member to help translate or keep notes, and we take whatever time is needed to explain each line of the offer. Bring a government-issued photo ID, and if you accept the offer, payment comes at that same visit.
