THE U.S. COINS AND JEWELRY TEAM

Kenny has been exposed to rare coins for most of his life. And as with most second generation coin dealers, it can be said the business is in his blood. But while he may bleed numismatics, he’s proven to be made of much more than that. His quest for knowledge is never ending and this inherent collector mentality coupled with decades of experience has made him adept at all facets of the store. Cultivated through the crucible of active trading, his expertise runs deep. Over the years he’s expanded his proficiencies to include precious metals, gemstones, high end watches, paper money, fine art, and basically all things collectible. With an intense familiarity of all the products in the store, he’s highly capable whether working behind the scenes, behind the counter or behind the table at major wholesale conventions. Despite his love for the business, his true calling is as a dedicated family man spending all his time away from the store with his wife and three kids.

Matt was introduced to the family business at a very early age. From sorting coins to stocking product, he literally learned the business from the ground up.
