Dude was quick and knowledgeable sold some silver and gold coin, seemed like a fair price but need to question the gold price next time I go. I thought my gold coins were fake but he tested them and real. So the price may seem a lot on his side now thinking back. But again he was honest to tell me they were real nice shop here .

Always a great experience. Very polite, helpful and honest. If you want top dollar for your items go here, if you are looking to buy go here! You will not be disappointed. I moved out of Illinois but still come back to this location if I'm selling coins, gold or silver even if it is 800 miles away.

Saturday was my first time at Belvedere Collectible Coins, and I was impressed! I bought a type 2 eagle and a eagle gem. Pat gave me a very good deal. He has a large display of coins. Professional and easy to get along with. I’ll definitely be back :)

If you are looking for a coin store in Belvidere stop in and say hi to pat!He has a great collection of coins on display.And if you need information about coins he the go to guy. He has alway helped me out with a lot of my Questions.And if he doesn’t know he will find out for you!If you want to buy silver or gold. He will get you a fair price.If you want to sell silver or gold you will get a good price.My brother joe took me to pats shop a few years ago and I am happy he did.Lots of regular customers come into pats everyday so the best time I found was Tuesday around 12:30-1:00 well that works for me I guess. If you stop in tell pat I sent you ! That will get you a giggle and a smile ?

Very poor value for buying and selling of coins. When selling your coin to them, they under rate the grade of the coin and give you lowest possible price. Say that they find the gray sheet says a coin is worth $120, they offer $85, but would sell the coin for $130: greedy. They also miss significant details of coins by not recognizing the mint where the coin was made: all for the sake of paying less for the coin. They also slam competitors. I won't go back to this business. While it is true that I submitted a coin that I now know to be a counterfeit, I did not know at the time that it was counterfeit. I naively have trusted other coin dealers, who have sold me some coins that are counterfeit. His offered price of the coins was so pathetic, I declined to sell any of my coins to him, nor did I submit any more coins to him, as I decided he wasn't a dealer that I wanted to do business with. Especially when he's offering to buy coins that are either uncirculated or almost uncirculated. I have since marked the coins as fake that I know are fake.

I went into Belvidere collectible coins after a bad experience at the Rockford Coin N Stamp and he took his time was patient with me answered all my questions gave me more information then I went in there asking for or knowing about even threw me a few free items including the red book guide to coin collecting. He will get you on the right track don’t waste your time at Rockford Coin N Stamp go see Pat and Belvidere Collectible Coins..He will hook you up no doubt. Love the three pieces I bought about two piece set and a graded Franklin piece and was up all night just staring at their beauty!! Found my coin store. Will not be goin anywhere else but to BELVIDERE COLLECTIBLE COINS!! The lady on the phone was helpful and “Pat” who helped me yesterday is an absolute beast he knew exactly what I was looking for, and got me the perfect little set!

I went into his shop today feb. 24th after a bad experience at the Rockford coin nd stamp.. he really didn't want me saying anything about it but to be honest if you're new to Coin collecting like myself, but adamant and eager to learn do not go to Rockford coin and stamp. He will discourage you,and make you feel unworthy of his time, and quite frank I almost stopped collecting coins and currency ,because he made me feel as if i should've been an expert nd not bothered him with question... that's alright because I plan to invest a lot of money into anything that is gonna make me more money and he lost my business solely on he rude responses and body language towards me.. I am Just eager to learn. happy to say I decided to say screw him,and his business and not let him or that experience discourage me from spending time, learning,and collecting what I want, just because of his very unprofessional and in accurate assumption about my collection. I did have some nicer pieces both bills,and coins that he was interested in and did purchased from me for over face value..Soooo I guess the A** well the guy that made one of himself anyway was incorrect to be quick to assume and maybe hopefully I can save someone anyone the hassle of even dealing with the at ROCKFORD COIN AND STAMP... If you are serious about collecting coins,metals,bullion,bills,proofs,art pieces,or even just want to learn more about it...and not be treated like an idiot!!! go to BELVIDERE COLLECTIBLE COINS!!! ... the people over there WILL HOOK YOU UP, And get you a lot more familiar with what route you are deciding to lean towards or invest more in than other areas.. he will get you right on track, tell you what to look for, wat not to look for, what you should, and/or shouldn't pay. in the matter of just a couple hours, I left there with a whole differant mindset, Learned and payed attention to information he was willing to take time and explain to me.. and YA it gets better, if I'm not mistaken his name is Pat. Calm, easy to talk to, explains things clear, so you can understand what he means. he was busy with a few other clients, managed to help me out and get them all their needs as well and even went out of his way for me, and asked them if they could give any good first pointers or major keys!! they happily did so!! they were happy customers, you could tell they had a good standing business relationship/almost seemed like friendship with him. I've seen ENOUGH will be grabbing a very large percentage of my coins,bullion,seals, and certificates from his shop. his good approach and customer service is why his business is thriving ... because he conducts business, as it should be.. the one gentleman that runs Rockford Coin N Stamp is very unfriendly, he is rude, acts like he don't need your business, etc. to be honest If you are unfamiliar with what you have do not take it to him you might get taken advantage of. "just going off his reviews"(sure they are true facts". To my point tho...now I've been to three stores now the second one ROCKFORD JEWELRY AND COIN.. another great experience, and also learned about, and bought some great perfect 2022 American Eagles. Today Feb. 24 decided to go to Belvidere coin and collectibles to get a few questions answered. ended up being in there for two hours.. this man was so patient with me, gave me a bunch of free game on collecting dos and dont,and also took his time to explain things to me clear as possible.. on top of all of that he offers u a incentive program if you bring in a friend and they start to invest he even rewards you for that, I mean absolutely unheard of, yet great business move.. but outta all this... what sold me,,is....the accessory items I came into his store to purchase he Let me have for free.. to me it's the principal of the he already gave me great advise,tons more knowledge than I had,he made me feel better about collecting again, he gave me a cool bank bag with the company name on it,and above all even though I told him I couldn'

Pat is very knowledgeable in just about anything in regards to coins history. I've been going here for years and in my experience his pricing is fair and he can be flexible with the price too. You can rest assure whatever he sells is 100% genuine. I am not comfortable buying coins on internet because you'll never know if what you are getting is real. I highly recommend this store ,though it's quite a distance from where I live but it's worth the trip! P. Espiritu

Look online before shopping here! Bullion and coins are Cheaper on Silvergoldbull.com, SD buillion, ebay. The owner is short-tempered most of the time. He can be nice but don't bet on it. If you ask alot questions he gets annoyed quickly

Pretty out of the way for me, but I will be back. I was looking for cheap coins for a type set, and the owner had lots of decent junk silver at spot price to look through. Ended up with a really good deal.Second visit was just as great. I got a few type coins for fair (and some even better) prices. I plan to be back to buy silver, since I know I can trust this dealer to sell for a good price.
