Trust Center
US Coin Shows maintains directory and educational content for collectors, dealers, and show operators. We distinguish between organizer-submitted listings, dealer-claimed profiles, editorial content, and public-source directory entries. Where possible, listings display their verification status and the date they were last checked.
How listings are verified
Every show and dealer listing on US Coin Shows has one of four provenance states. You will see the relevant status displayed on each page.
Confirmed by US Coin Shows through direct contact with the organizer or business.
The business owner has claimed this profile and manages their own listing information.
The show organizer submitted this listing directly through our platform.
Assembled from public business information or directory sources. Details should be confirmed directly with the business or organizer.

What we claim authority for
US Coin Shows is a leading directory and education platform for U.S. coin shows and dealers. We credibly serve as a reference for:
- U.S. coin show discovery by state, city, and date
- Dealer discovery and show-attendance tracking
- Practical collector education and beginner through intermediate guidance
- Calendar and planning utilities for coin show attendance
For official grading standards, membership rules, legal requirements, or compliance questions, we cite and direct readers to the relevant primary authority — such as the ANA, PNG, PCGS, NGC, or applicable government agencies.
Why listing status matters to collectors
When you are planning a trip to a coin show, the accuracy of the listing directly affects your experience. A show that has moved venues, changed its dates, or been cancelled without notice wastes your time and money. US Coin Shows exists specifically to solve this problem — we maintain active relationships with show organizers, track listing changes, and give every listing a clear provenance status so you always know how fresh the information is.
For dealer discovery, listing status tells you whether a business owner is actively managing their information or whether the profile was assembled from public records. Claimed profiles are kept current by the dealer themselves, which means you are more likely to find accurate hours, current specialties, and correct contact details. Imported listings may reflect information that was accurate at the time of import but has since changed — particularly for businesses that have moved, changed hours, or closed.
Our commitment to accuracy
We review and update listings on a rolling basis as new information becomes available. Our editorial team reaches out to show organizers directly to confirm dates and venues before events approach. We cross-reference dealer information against public business records and professional directories including the American Numismatic Association member database and the Professional Numismatists Guild dealer directory.
When information cannot be confirmed, we mark it clearly so you know to verify directly before relying on it for travel or purchasing decisions. We believe that honest provenance labeling is more valuable to collectors than presenting uncertain data with false confidence.
