About The Coin Shop

We are a family-owned and operated business with over 30 years in the coin and bullion trade. We operate our brick-and-mortar shop in Brighton, Michigan. Our staff has over 80 years of combined experience and truly loves what we do.

The Coin Shop is owned and operated by Jason and Gail Bane. Our family has lived in the Brighton area for over 90 years. We have been active in many community organizations, from church events to local Jaycees and charities. We are known as a safe, honest, and trusted business both online and in our community.

Our Story

I decided to open The Coin Shop after years of doing business from my home. My father, Patrick, was also operating from his home. Customers found us online and could call to make appointments. Everything was going well until my father was robbed. Thankfully, no one was hurt — but the thieves got away with several thousand dollars. That incident made safety my number one concern. It’s one thing to do something you love. It’s another to put your well-being at risk while doing it.

After the robbery, I encouraged my father to stop doing business from home. I took time to regroup. After almost three years of planning and saving, I opened the physical shop. The Coin Shop gave my father a safe place to continue doing what he loved for many years.

Today, Patrick has retired due to health challenges affecting his mobility and overall well-being. The shop is now proudly operated by the two of us and we are excited to continue serving our community. We look forward to coming to work every day and connecting with customers who share our passion for coins.

Stronger Together

We have partnered with AMARK and Dillon & Gage, two of the largest bullion suppliers in the United States. These partnerships allow us to offer a wide variety of bullion products at near-wholesale prices.

The Software Behind Our Shop

The Coin Shop doesn't just use dealer software — we helped build it. SpotPro is the platform Jason developed for coin and bullion shops: counter checkout and buying at NumisNexus, live buy-sheet and display-screen pricing tied to spot, inventory, Greysheet lookup, a one-page dealer site at thecoinshop.dealer.spotpro.us, and a branded online store on ExtraCoins.

When you visit us in Brighton, check our bullion prices page, or shop online, you're seeing the same live data our staff uses at the counter. Sellers who prefer mail-in offers may know us through Cash4Coins.us. Collectors looking for coin shows near them can use CoinShows.us — the national show calendar we built on the same platform, including when we set up at shows ourselves.

What to expect when you visit

Walk in during open hours — Tuesday through Friday 10am–4pm, Saturday 10am–2pm (closed Sunday and Monday). Tell us whether you are buying or selling. We will look carefully at what you brought, explain pricing in plain language, and never rush you into a decision. Prefer to prepare first? Call or chat with Liberty first ((810) 819-2368) so our counter can stay with customers in the shop — or browse our live bullion board before you leave home. Want stock, specials, or hour updates between visits? Sign up for notifications.

We usually staff about three people at the counter so busy times still move. Bring the kids, bring the dog, park where unloading is easiest — this is a neighborhood shop built for real visits, not a high-pressure desk.
