Justin has over 15 years of experience in selling everything from rare ancient and biblical coinage into shipwreck finds, pre-federal and colonial issues, exunomia, rare pattern specimens and the many modern issue opportunities that our collectors enjoy. Having sold over $25 million in rare numismatics, Justin understands the many nuances of the industry that help distinguish the many clients he has worked with over the years. He strives to be consistently learning and helping those in his field with a vast array of knowledge he has immersed himself in through the years. His driving thought in numismatics is that we collectors are effectively stewards preserving the history which tells the story of the people, places and events that have chartered our history of today. Justin takes utmost pride in bestowing heirloom-quality acquisitions that will make phenomenal additions to even the most elite of collections.
In his spare time he has been studying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for over thirteen years and is nearing the rank of black belt. Justin is also an avid modeler of R/C planes and flies over 20 aircraft ranging from prop planes like the P-51 Mustang and the A-4 Sky Raider, into ducted jet fans such as the A-10, F-14 and the F-22 just to name a few. His four kids are his biggest fans and enjoy every free moment spent with their father trekking the land on hikes and camping the many lakes and forests of the beautiful Arizona landscape that he is native to.
Justin's favorite piece of numismatic nirvana is the famed Libertas Americana. A medal that was inspired by the great Benjamin Franklin and depicts infant America, symbolic as baby Hercules strangling two serpents representative of the British armies at Saratoga and Yorktown, while the defending Lady Minerva of France guards over infant America from the aggressing British Lion. A piece that needs little introduction and leaves little to the imagination; It fully embraces both the struggle and the gratitude of France for her assistance during the American Revolution and aided our budding nation to become the greatest nation on earth.
We look forward to assisting in your collecting endeavors and thank you for both your time and your business.

Cincinnati native and a graduate of Eastern Kentucky University with a degree in Business and Marketing, Claudia’s hallmark is her commitment to educating her clients and helping each client acquire the right coins for their collection. Claudia’s interest in coins began as a young child. Her father had a cloth bag of pennies and would often say "save your pennies" because the last one you pick up could make you a millionaire! Claudia loves the gold Buffaloes for their beauty, low mintage and low population. She is also fascinated with ancient coins for their unrivaled historical and numismatic significance. Claudia is also the proud holder of a U.S. patent which is the result of work she did with her father.Claudia enjoys golf, tennis, hiking, traveling and her dogs, and is a huge Reds and Bengals fan. In fact, she was lucky enough to see the "Big Red Machine" win the 1975 World Series at Riverfront Stadium. She takes pride in having a close wonderful family, and a great new daughter-in-law who is a fabulous addition to the family.

Emily found an interest in coin collecting at a very early age when she found her father's cup of 90% silver coins. With over 20 years in the mortgage business as a loan officer, she developed the skills to make smart decisions with integrity, trust and a sense of humor. She funded over $350 Million in loans to help clients gain home ownership. Emily began collecting coins in 1999 when the U.S. Mint first released the State Quarter program. Her daughter was six years old at the time and they pursued the collection together. Emily is a student of numismatics and is passionate about educating collectors about all aspects of coin collecting. Her favorite coin is the specially enhanced 2013 W Silver Eagle.

John has been in the precious metals industry since 2011. He got his start working with the Silver Eagle and Statehood Quarter collections. Over his career, he has handled thousands of coins from as early as Ancient era coins to colonial era coins. His strengths are mainly in the modern issue coins, but he does very much appreciate working with older coins. John is a Father of five and Grandfather of seven, and got interested in coins when his Uncle Frank (a Korean War Veteran) passed away almost 20 years ago. Uncle Frank had put together a very impressive set of graded coins for his three children. His children were touched when they realized the care that their Father had taken in selecting coins for them that had done very well in the collector market.
