Rare Currency and Rich Local Heritage Highlight the Newest Location for the Numismatic Auction House
San Francisco – Stack’s Bowers Galleries, the nation’s oldest and largest numismatic auction house, is proud to announce the opening of a new rare-coin and precious metals gallery and showroom in the heart of San Francisco’s Financial District. Located at 333 Pine Street, the new gallery will provide convenient access to collectors, dealers and enthusiasts throughout Northern California and the broader West Coast.
The San Francisco gallery brings Stack’s Bowers Galleries’ full range of numismatic services to the Bay Area, backed by more than 90 years of experience in the rare-coin, currency and bullion markets. Collectors can sell coins and paper money for top market value, browse an extensive selection of inventory available for direct purchase and consign to the firm’s world-class auctions. Dealers gain access to the wholesale trading department to buy and sell. With gold and silver prices near record highs, the gallery will also serve as a trusted local resource for bullion trading and appraisals.
In its first months of operation, the San Francisco gallery will be accompanied by a team of numismatists drawn from Stack’s Bowers Galleries’ other locations across the country. These specialists are recognized among the most respected experts in the numismatic trade, bringing decades of combined experience in U.S. and world coins, paper currency and ancient coinage directly to Bay Area collectors and dealers.
“San Francisco has long been one of the most important cities in American numismatic history, from the Gold Rush that put California on the map to the historic San Francisco mint and generations of West Coast collectors,” said Brian Kendrella, president of Stack’s Bowers Galleries. “We’re excited to give collectors and dealers in the Bay Area a permanent home to buy, sell and consign with the same level of expertise our clients have come to expect from Stack’s Bowers Galleries.”
