Professional Grading and Valuation by Southwest Florida’s Premier Coin Authority
At Judy’s Jewelry, we don’t just see currency; we see history, rarity, and tangible wealth. Whether you are a lifelong collector seeking a “Key Date” coin or an investor looking to liquidate gold and silver bullion, Sal Lanzieri and his nephew JP provide the expert evaluation you need. With over 35 years of experience, we offer a level of numismatic knowledge that ensures you receive the maximum market value for your collection.
Why Your Coins are Worth More at Judy’s
Many buyers only pay the “melt value” of the metal. At Judy’s, we look for the numismatic premium. A common silver dollar might be worth its weight in silver, but a rare mint mark or a high-grade specimen can be worth thousands more. Sal’s expert eye helps you identify these hidden treasures.
-
Expert Grading & Authentication: We evaluate the strike, luster, and wear of your coins. We specialize in identifying rare varieties and “Errors” that others often overlook.

NGC & PCGS Knowledge: While we handle “raw” coins, we have extensive experience with third-party graded (slabbed) coins and can advise you on whether your items are candidates for professional grading.
-
Competitive Buy/Sell Spreads: As the largest estate buyer in Fort Myers, we maintain high volume, allowing us to offer better prices for your gold and silver than small-scale retailers.
