On a recommendation, I made the trip, nearly two hours each way, to visit Mid-American Rare Coin Galleries in Lexington for the first time. Over the years, I’ve met with antique shop owners, coin and currency dealers, jewelry store managers, and plenty of others in this field. My experience here was, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had. I met with Dino, and I can’t say enough about how professional, knowledgeable, honest, and patient he was. If you’re not sure what to do with a collection, or if you’re unsure about the value of what you have, I highly suggest setting up an appointment with them before going anywhere else - you’ll be thankful you did. THANK YOU, Dino. I truly hope to do business with you and your team again sometime in the future.

My husband and I made an appointment with Dino yesterday and he was very professional, honest and very knowledgeable and patient with us. We were paid a very fair price for our coins. We highly recommend Dino to anyone selling or buying coins. Thank you very much Dino for your time and your professionalism, patience and knowledge. My husband and I hope to do business with you again in the future!

I just can’t thank Jeff enough for being so fair on the price he offered for my coins! Both he and Dino were extremely professional and a pleasure to do business with. If you’re leery about who to trust with your coins and collectibles, I am very confident in saying you can definitely feel comfortable working with these guys at Mid-American Rare Coin Galleries. Good people! And as you know, that can be a rare find these days. Edwin Arnold

I inherited a large (over 800 piece) coin collection. Mr Payne and Mid American took their time and did a great job explaining to me what I had in my collection and its value. Based on a prior appraisal, their offer was very fair and the transaction efficient. Thank you!

Fabulous experience! Dino was helpful and patient looking through my various inherited collections. He was knowledgeable and efficient. Wrote up my insurance appraisal, free of charge. I will definitely return when I’m ready to sell my coins.
