Capitol Coin & Stamp

5 star review

Nelson, the owner was extremely helpful today. I really appreciated the time he took to find the coins I wanted. His prices were very fair. Thank you!

Huge selection of fascinating political memorabilia. Reasonable prices for pieces of US political history. Very friendly, gave me all the time I needed to find my favourite campaign buttons.

HUGE collection of presidential memorabilia!!! Sold my coins here and used the money to buy my dad an awesome Christmas gift. Fantastic spot to buy one of a kind souvenirs from DC They have presidential posters, buttons, golf balls, watches, medals, coins, and tons of other cool gifts—priced from $5-400 Nelson, the owner, is a lovely gentleman who will help to appraise your coins quickly and fairly. I had a foreign coin worth $25 in silver, up to $120 as is. He gave me $25 and that was fair. But I also had some rare Roman coins and he suggested I take them to a coin show. He also offered to take them there himself and call me the next day with the appraisal. Genuine, knowledgeable, and fair guy. PS it’s inside the P of H GRANGE building, in between the White House history center and the brick building, across the street from Teaism (it’s in the basement, so don’t bother looking for the sign or street number haha)

I came here in late October. It was pretty great! He has a great collection!

Brough in a of 44 coin book of Liberty head half dollars from 1800-1900s offered me $300 for entire book found out my book is worth over $2000…. Do with that information what you will this was my experience

This is a seriously interesting place! Situated right next door to the Secret Service and less than a stone’s throw from the White House is this coin shop, located in the basement of one of the buildings in the White House’s vicinity. The room is small, but it’s filled from wall to wall with coins, banknotes and other collectibles. I visited on the penultimate day of my trip to DC and picked up a NGC graded Silver Eagle, but I have a feeling that I’ll definitely be back the next time I’m in DC. One thing to remember is that you will need some ID to enter the building, which you present at reception.
