Bob Patchin’s Coin Gallery Inc.

I don’t know if this is some kind of sick joke because it says that they are open today however I just pulled up and the shop is closed! Hours are Tuesday-​Friday 10:30 — 5:00, Saturday 10:30 — 4:00, closed Sunday & Monday! Not cool we made the drive from the IE for a closed shop!

These people are great. Good selection, fair prices, they will even sometimes give you a lower price if you disagree with the quote. I have collected for 40 years and this is one of my favorites.

This is a great store, my grandpa and I have been going there for years. They always have what ever you need or know how to get a hold of it. Very knowledgeable people work there.

The selection at this store is great, and their prices are competitive. The reason for a three star review is the abhorrent customer service. Of the many times I’ve visited, I’ve seen a variation of three people working there. Two women and a man. The women are the sweetest, most helpful people you can hope to do business with, especially if you have questions or are looking for a specific item. Every time I’ve gone in there and the two women were working, it has been a pleasurable experience. If the man was there, however, it was a completely different experience. Every time I’ve dealt with him he’s been very brusque and terse and even condescending with me and with other customers in the store. Understanding that people are people and everyone has bad days, I’ve always been patient, polite, and respectful with him, but after multiple times of receiving the same type of treatment, the only possible conclusion I can come to is that either he has a lot of bad days, or that’s just how he conducts business. Either way, it’s not a good business model to make your customers feel like they’re putting you out by trying to give you money for the things you sell. I continue to go there, but it’s not my first choice. If I drive up and see the man behind the counter, I just drive away and come back later.

Extremely friendly and professional service. I bought a very low dollar item, and they were kind enough to give me a free «anniversary» coin pouch and enter me in their raffle drawing.

One of the best coin shops in Orange County. Been coming in for years. Well organized and laid out space, with plenty to look over. Very reasonable price wise.

they know their stuff… give better than fair prices… i have been there many times… on not busy days it is so nice to bend their ears and learn things… and the doggie is sooooo cute!!!

The people here are really nice and helpful. They didn’t mind answering all my «first time stupid questions.» My mom enjoyed all the antiques on the wall as well as the big labradoodle dog they had. Will definitely be coming back to purchase more silver.

People here are so nice… the old women helps me friendly. she gives me 3 coins for free when i dont have enough money to buy it…
If you wanna find coins or interested in it… come to there
… u wont be disappointed :)

Good shop.
Don’t come here being completely ignorant about what you want, or else you will probably not understand if you’re overpaying for something, or if you’re scoring a deal.
Not run like a bullion trader — their prices are on paper and change according to whims /​I don’t know what. Go in knowing what you want to buy and the price it should be sold at.
I’m being vague on purpose. Good deals to be found here. Not sure I’d sell to them, but I know much better options for selling. It’s the buying that can be tricky, and these guys are a gold mine for that.
One thing I will reveal is that their price for cull silver Morgans are decent. I like to buy their culls and polish them up nice and shiny so I can carry around some lucky coins or else weld them to art projects.

I had a great experience in the shop today. Everyone working there was very helpful and friendly. It seems like they really know and love their business. I certainly felt welcome and plan to return.

I went in to sell some coins. The older woman there was not too interested in helping me. I asked her some questions as to what coins I should be on the lookout for. She gave me a condescending vague answer. It was not a very welcoming atmosphere.

I sold my collection at this family-​owned shop and Tony was knowledgeable, business-​like, thorough and gave me a fair price. Whether you’re buying or selling, give them a try.

I have dealt with These guys for a few years. It is the only coin shop I go to any more. They are always friendly and professional, and grade coins accurately, (They don’t take a coin that is in Fine condition and call it VF.)

I have bought a bunch of coins here over the years, so I go to sell a 1854 tpe 2 which is a scarce date. He tells me its fake, thats nice, because I bought it from HIM !! I just leave and will never go back… PS they have the personality of slugs. BLAH

Can’t guarantee that you will absolutely get the highest dollar amount paid for your coins. But, these folks seem to really know their business! They are certainly competitive! And are professional and pleasant!
They will give you a bid on your old coins. If you accept, you are paid cash money on the spot! Quick and easy transaction!

Bob Patchin’s Coin Gallery is once again doing a holiday promotion (11÷15−12÷15). Every time you purchase an item in the store during this promotional period, you will be entered to win one of 10 items (with ¼ ounce of gold being the top prize)! There are also sales on coins and supplies.
p. s. Good luck!

My friend and I came here to get value estimates on some coin collector books belonging to her mother. Everyone was very friendly and helpful even though we didn’t buy or sell anything. We are planning to go back once her mom is ready to sell the books. They also appeared to have a great inventory of various coins and currencies from all sorts of times and places.

If you have any interest at all in coin collecting, this is the go to spot!!! Whether you wish to buy or sell, these folks are awesome. It’s a family run business which I’m a little jealous of. I would love to work at a shop like this with my family (well, some of them)!
My BF drags me here pretty regularly and I have to admit they have some pretty cool stuff ranging for all levels of collector. If you are looking for a unique gift for a mildly nerdy person (or maybe yourself), you just might find it at this store. Coin collecting is such a great hobby for kids because it teaches them to appreciate money and at the same time they learn a little bit about investing. Anyway, the staff here is incredibly knowledgeable and trustworthy. I’ve been in other shops where I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t hesitate to rip me off, not the case here. Definitely check this place out if you are in the area!

Very nice, helpful people who own and work at this coin gallery. They answered all of our questions and even let me pet their 2-​month-​old «shop puppy.» A great place to go if you are looking to buy or sell some coins, or just get an appraisal.
