ABOUT US

Tri-State Rare Coins was founded in 2023 by owner Aaron Rowe, following an extensive mentorship under Robert Minichino, former owner of Central Jersey Rare Coins. For over 34 years, Central Jersey Rare Coins built a trusted reputation serving collectors throughout the Tri-State area. We are proud to carry that legacy forward—while continually enhancing and expanding the services our clients have come to rely on.

​

Our team of experienced numismatists is equipped to appraise and purchase collections of any size. We set ourselves apart by offering free, detailed written appraisals, providing a transparent, line-by-line breakdown so you can clearly understand the value of your collection. We believe in an honest, pressure-free approach—no high-pressure sales tactics, just straightforward guidance to help you make informed decisions and avoid common pitfalls in the marketplace.
