Looked up John and classic rarities online prior to coming in contact with John we set up an appointment for me to come in came in. John was very professional answered all my questions gave me solid answers gave me the truth. Talk to him about the value of everything in which he did purchase from me showed me where the prices were where he was at and was very professional on his business I would definitely take another coin collection back to him to have him take a look.Thank you for being so honest, its hard to find people like you in this business
If you need an appraisal or to sell your mold coins I absolutely recommend Classic Rarities. John professionalism and expertise is excellent. Call him before you go anywhere else.
I would highly recommend you visit John with all your coins and certificates for him to look at and value. He takes time with everything you have and is very knowledgeable. He explains the value or “no value “ to you
It was nice to not be rushed but not have my experience drag. Very professional, great timing. The exchange was very reasonable right off the bat. No bull, no manipulation, just straight business. Thanks again
John was knowledgeable and very professional. He offers top dollar for your coins. I would recommend John to anyone interested.
Great experience. I had inherited a coin collection and was unsure how to have the collection evaluated and appraised. John walked me through the process and had the entire collection done in just a few days. I was very happy with the service and happy with the offer to purchase the collection. I highly recommend Classic Rarities.
John was impressively knowledgeable and answered every dumb obvious question I had without complaint. He offered a same day appointment, in and out within minutes. He even took all my face value coins to save me a trip to the bank. This is a man that loves what he does and he deserves every 5 star he gets. Always heartwarming to see someones multi-decade passion in action.
Gentleman was knowledgeable and courteous he is by appointment only but was able to squeeze me in last minute…very honest and respected me and my concerns as I had never done something like this before….didn’t play a shell game with my coins….he is now my go to guy won’t do business with anyone else
John was very knowledgeable, and extremely helpful in answering my questions. He was able to quickly appraise my coins, and provided valuable advice. I found John to be honest and straightforward in our interactions, and I would strongly recommend him to others for assistance with coins.
Very smooth and professional transaction. I called and was able to make an appointment that same day. He sorted all my coins and explained why some had more value than others and I actually got more than I was expecting.Highly recommended.
Great experience. Selling coins is not something people do everyday so trust is HUGE. John was recommended by friends and after looking at reviews I put my trust in him. Fair and honest. He explained everything as he reviewed my coins.
Was the best experience I have ever had at a coin dealer I highly recommend anyone that needs to sell the coin’s or anything to go here
John has such a vast knowledge of coins, honest and very trustworthy..great person to deal with.you will always learn something from John on your coins...thanks again
Great guy. Very knowledgeable about his coins
Met with me and gave me utmost consideration and professionalism.
Excellent experience with John, i highly recommend his services.
Ive had some silver dimes and other various coins sitting in ziploc bags in a small box for years. I decided to look up someone locally who could appraise and buy my coins and came across John at Classic Rarities. He was easy to get in contact with, and I was able to schedule an appointment to meet with him for the very next day. I will also note he had excellent COVID protocols in place, which I really appreciated. In less than 10 minutes he had appraised my coins, and was honest with me about what was valuable, what wasnt, and why. I went in with no real expectations or knowledge of the value of what I had, but walked out the door with a respectable and fair amount of cash. He was very knowledgeable and I highly recommend his services!
John was very nice, polite and professional. Highly recommend
Fast, efficient and honest. Scheduled our appointment right away and got us in and out. Thanks John!
Made an appointment with John to sell some old silver quarters and dimes - junk silver. He ran through counter and his counts came out showing a few more coins than my at-home count. Seems like an honest guy, would go back.
John is honest and fair, highly recommended!!!Sal

If I was anyone who is reading this I would definitely give John from classic rarities a chance not only does he own his company but he takes pride in what he does.
I recently had an opportunity to work with John at Classic Rarities and couldnt have been more satisfied with the transaction. He is extremely knowledgeable and willing to share his expertise in an honest friendly manner. I felt confident and comfortable in the process and pleased with the results of the sale.
Made the effort to meet me on a weekend and was very efficient at going through my coins and very straightforward about what they were looking for and what they paid. I had done a little research beforehand and was alert for any red flags since selling coins was way outside my areas of expertise, but I was reassured by the honest, fair, professional, and knowledgeable approach of John Magavern.
I have known John for sometime now. I am always pleased with his honesty and sincere desire to help the modern coin collector. His expertise is spot on and always welcome. I have been a coin collector for almost 50 years and have never met another coin man like John. I am happy to know him . Whether it’s buying or selling, John is my man for both !
Patient and professional, John explained and educated me as he inspected an inherited coin collection. He honestly explained why and why not certain coins had value. He lived up to his excellent reputation duringmy visit. Immediate offer and payment. Highly recommend!
Very knowledgeable and fair; a genuine coin dealer. 👍
Professional and honest. Made a stress-full experience easy.Would recommend to anyone.
They were very polite and was very fast at going through my coins . I liked the fact that they ask if you want cash or check .
Awesome experience there, was treated with honesty and fairness!!!! Will definately go again!!!
What a wonderful experience with John!!! A total professional who is extremely knowledgeable and very kind. Do not hesitate to get your coins looked at by him, you will be very happy with this decision.
Great place if you want to sell some coins.
I have a wonderful experience. Such a nice and honest man. I went to sell some coins, he quoted me a price and also told me what they are worth. I was so impressed that he is also so honest he told me that another dealer may be able to give me a better price.The experience of selling my coins was quick and easy. Scan my id, sign my name and he gave me the cash as quoted. Definately recommend!
We highly recommend him if you have a coin collection. He is very knowledgeable and has some great stories to tell! Very nice to deal with and prices and very good.
A family member recently passed & I was asked in assisting in finding somebody trustworthy & reputable to take a look at the coin collection that was left behind. Well let me just say that John was both of them. He was very thorough, honest and pays a very generous percentage of what each coin was worth, not to mention he was very knowledgeable. Also it was a very private & intimate experience. He meet with me by private appointment & we were not interuppted once. Very professional and I am highly impressed/ satisfied

I felt that John was very reasonable and honest. I highly recommend him if you run into a coin collection. He had a lot of useful information and recommendations!
I got an appointment scheduled right away. Dealer was very knowledgeable and helpful.
John was very nice and friendly. He is from Hamburg and I wanted to keep my business local. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He was able to identify and give me some history on some coins I brought in. I would highly recommend him! I will be a returning customer!UPDATE: 7/16/21: i had an occasion to use Classic Rarities again. John was again, very friendly and knowledgeable and professional. He returned my call quickly. He was very efficient. We were able to meet the next day and complete the transaction quickly. I will definitely go to him again!
Fast, easy, and honest transactions, as usual.
Highly recommend. John is a very knowledgeable and interesting man. It’s nice to do business with someone who truly cares about what he does.Trustworthy.
My mother-in-law wanted to get an appraisal on rare coin for insurance, and possibly sell it in the future. I set up an appointment with John and he not only did the appraisal for free, he gave me an education on the coin and made recommendations to make sure the coin was properly insured. I offered to pay him for his time, but he refused. I will definitely go to John in the future when I need numismatic services.
Great experience!
Very knowledgeable and professional. Was able to get me in the same day I called for an appointment. Gave information about other coins for future reference.
Just stopped in today. From start to finish the experience was very professional and quick. There was no pressure to sell and I felt good about the offer I received for the coins I brought it. He was very easy going and I would come back again. He did give me a tip for any future customers to call ahead and set up a appointment.
We used him, as well as recommended him to others, integrity and pricing were very appropriate. We highly recommend him.
