Arizona treats coin sellers better than most states: bullion is exempt from transaction privilege tax, and a 2017 law even lets residents subtract gains on legal-tender coins from state taxable income. If you are selling legal-tender gold or silver coins, that distinction is worth real money at tax time, so keep your receipts and note what you sold. The Arizona shops above are ranked by verified customer reviews. Before visiting, separate your coins into bullion and possible collectibles, and price the first group at melt so you can judge any offer instantly.

Arizona exempts precious metal bullion and monetized bullion from its transaction privilege tax under ARS 42-5061(A)(21). A 2017 law (ARS 43-1022(25)) lets Arizona residents subtract net capital gains from the exchange of legal tender, including specie (gold and silver coins), from their state taxable income. Gold bars, rounds, and items that are not legal tender remain subject to Arizona's 2.5% flat income tax; federal capital gains taxes apply in all cases. Read the full state guide.
Three things put a coin above melt: a scarce date, a scarce mint mark, and condition. Start with our free guide on collectible value versus melt, then get an in-person opinion from a shop listed on this page before selling anything old for scrap. The metal price sets your floor, never your ceiling.
A government-issued photo ID (dealers who buy from the public record seller identity in most states), the coins in whatever holders they are already in (do not clean them), and your own melt-value estimate from a free calculator so you can judge offers on the spot.
Compare at least two offers on anything above a few hundred dollars. Offers vary legitimately between shops depending on their inventory and clientele. You can also post one free request on our marketplace and let rated buyers quote their best price before you visit anyone.
Reputable mail-in buyers use insured, tracked shipping and quote after receipt. It widens your options beyond local shops, at the cost of a few days. For rare coins, an in-person appraisal first is usually worth it. Our selling guides explain both routes step by step.
