The Happy Coin is Fairfield County Connecticut’s Premier Gold & Silver Rare Coin and Precious Metals Dealer.
Jerry and Chris would consider it a privilege to assist you in building any kind of coin collection, from a raw set of circulated Indian Head Cents to a high end collection of Proof Morgan Dollars or Mint State Double Eagles.
Of course, we all know that intelligently building a coin collection is a shrewd investment, a great way to diversify, a discreet way to pass wealth to future generations, a solid inflation hedge, etc., etc., but most of all, though, it's a great way to have fun. We think that "having fun" is one of the more important aspects of assembling a collection. We also know that you build a better collection when you really enjoy assembling it.
So while great coins and exceptional customer service remain our primary focus, we certainly want to make sure we keep "having fun" as a top priority at The Happy Coin. We are available to talk anytime and always welcome any questions, offers or suggestions you may have. Mostly, we always look forward to making new connections and building new relationships.

Direct Sales – Our mission is to offer a diverse selection of competitively priced, professionally imaged certified and raw U.S. Coins. Shipping and insurance is always free in the lower 48 States. Coins purchased from The Happy Coin will arrive promptly, safely packaged and will include a 15 day, no questions asked return privilege. We even cover the cost of return shipping and insurance.
Certification and Grading - We are an authorized NGC Dealership, so if you have coins you would like to have certified, we can help. We are also an authorized CAC Dealer, so we can help with that, as well.
We buy coins - Selling your coins to The Happy Coin is a great way to maximize the value of your collection. By selling to The Happy Coin, you eliminate the added cost of a middleman. We buy everything, we travel to your location and very often, we offer immediate payment!
Auction representation - We have extensive auction experience. During my time in the automobile business, I purchased over $25,000,000 worth of high-line vehicles and have a unique sense and fundamental understanding of the auction process. This experience is vital and along with our appreciation of and eye for quality, the bottom line is this; we can help you acquire the right coins for the right money. Perhaps most importantly, I have learned when to *STOP* bidding, which is a skill many buyers lack because they get emotionally involved in the process. I have learned some of the best purchases at auctions are the purchases you don’t make.
Consignments - Do you have a collection that you'd like to sell? Depending on your collection, perhaps a consignment agreement is the best approach. Our retail outlet and professional imaging offers you maximum exposure and value. Our accounting system offers clear and easy sales tracking. You can also visit your inventory and watch it sell on our website. In some cases, we offer liberal consignment prepayments.
Wantlists - Due to our commitment to your satisfaction, we vow to persistently and intelligently pursue that hard to find coin on your Wantlist. We are also extremely well positioned to complete your Wantlist due to our various industry affiliations and connections. Some of our affiliations include Certified Coin Exchange and CoinNet, as well as various dealers and wholesale outlets throughout the country.
Precious Metals - Would you like to take physical possession of any type of bullion? Whether you want a little or a lot, we can help with any quantity and will work on a razor thin margin to offer you the greatest value possible!
Please feel free to call on us at any time and let us know how we may be of service to you. In the meantime, please browse our "Divine Fortune" and remember, most of all, have fun!
