When a coin collector has all of the right tools on hand, their collection will truly shine. Whether it’s a loupe or magnifying glass for inspecting a coin to detect minuscule scratches and wear, or a box to store their treasured pieces, these essential supplies will help bring out the best in any numismatist’s hard-earned collection.
Having a trusted reference book is an important tool for any collector, and there are many great options to choose from. One of the most popular is the annually updated A Guide Book to United States Coins, commonly known as The Red Book. Other options include guides by reputable coin grading organizations like NGC and PCGS.
Other valuable tools for a collector to have on hand are cotton gloves and coin tongs, both of which can be used to handle coins without damaging their precious metal luster. Cleaning solutions are also a popular purchase, as they can be used to remove tarnish from circulated and proof coins.
For those that collect in bulk, coin tubes are an excellent option for safe and archival storage of their high-valued pieces. A coin album is another storage solution, and while it offers fewer possibilities for inspection, its sturdy construction can protect against fingerprints and potential handling damage. APMEX also carries a variety of coin display boxes for the collector looking to showcase their hard-earned collection. We offer a selection of both wooden and aluminum coin display cases from SAFE, Lighthouse and other providers.
