Very transparent in every step of the process. The entire sale was smooth and easy, and they were eager to explain everything clearly. Easily the best price you’ll find in the Hartford area. -- PJ

The owner is trustworthy, knowledgeable, pleasant, honest, fair and made selling our gold coins a very simple and comfortable experience. We highly recommend KC's Gold and Collectibles!

I traveled from out of state today, for my first appointment with Fred. I had a really good intuitive feeling about him and his business before I met him, and boy, did he ever live up to it! Not only did he give me high prices for the gold, silver, and jewelry I brought in, but I found him to be such a wonderful person. We had the best time chatting about pets and travel and so much more. I hope to get to do business with him in the future. A true gem of a guy.

Highly recommended! I went to KC's Gold & Collectibles to sell some coins I inherited. Fred was wonderful to work with! He made the process very easy, clear, and straightforward. He answered all of my questions, and I was very pleased with what he was able to offer. I would gladly work with him again in the future!
