Coin and Gold Buyers Serving Broomfield, CO

Broomfield is usually said to be named for the broom corn farmers once grew on the plains here. For decades the town sat across four counties at once, Adams, Boulder, Jefferson and Weld, until 2001, when it became the City and County of Broomfield, the newest county in Colorado. That makes it one of the few places in the metro where the city and the county are the same thing.

The first big wave of houses came in the mid-1950s with Broomfield Heights, laid out next to the Denver-Boulder Turnpike, the road that opened in 1952 and is now US 36. The families who bought those ranch houses commuted to jobs in Denver or Boulder and saved the way that generation did. Their basements and dresser drawers tend to hold silver dimes and quarters pulled from change before 1965, a few Kennedy halves, some wheat cents and maybe a silver dollar or two. Today the call usually comes from a son or daughter clearing the house after a parent has moved or passed.

Anthem, Wildgrass and the neighborhoods near Interlocken are newer, built up around the time Flatiron Crossing opened beside US 36 in 2000. A lot of the Broomfield calls we get from those newer streets are about bullion: one-ounce Gold Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, Silver Eagles still in mint tubes, a few gold or silver bars kept in a home safe. We price bullion off the live spot price after confirming each piece with non-destructive testing, and a tube of Silver Eagles gets counted coin by coin and weighed before any number goes on paper.

Broomfield collectors also hold on to years of proof sets and mint sets ordered from the U.S. Mint. Silver proof sets from many years contain 90% silver coins, so we look at those for metal first and then for any collector demand on top of it. Sets made of clad coins bring more modest money, and we tell you that plainly so the written list holds no surprises.

Once you book, we work out a meeting place in Broomfield with you, and anyone with a full estate or a collection too heavy to carry can ask about a home visit. Bring a government-issued photo ID if you plan to sell. Payment can happen at that same meeting by cash, check or wire for larger sales, or you can keep everything along with the written list.
