Home Appointments – Trusted In-Home Coin Appraisals
Our home appointment service brings the expertise of Lafayette Coin Buyers directly to you. Whether you’ve inherited a large collection, want to sell coins from an estate, or prefer to keep high-value transactions private, our in-home visits are designed for comfort and confidence.
Each appointment is handled by a certified coin dealer with years of experience appraising rare coins, precious metals, and bullion. We follow a clear, transparent process:
Set up a private appointment at your home or office in Lafayette.
Our professional appraiser arrives on time, equipped with portable tools for accurate testing and valuation.
We evaluate your items on-site, explaining each step of the appraisal so you understand how the value is determined.
If you choose to sell, we pay you on the spot via cash, check, or wire—whatever feels right for you.
Our goal is to make it easy to sell coins or gold without ever stepping into a store while maintaining the professionalism you’d expect from a top-tier dealer.
Why Choose Home Appointments?
For many Lafayette residents, discretion matters. Maybe you don’t want to carry your collection across town. Maybe you simply want to avoid the foot traffic of retail settings. Here’s why home appointments with Lafayette Coin Buyers are the preferred choice:
1. Privacy and Security
We understand the sensitivity of dealing with valuables. Our team operates with complete discretion—no branded vehicles, no public drop-offs, no unnecessary exposure. You can sell your items in total privacy.
2. Convenience for Large or Fragile Collections
Some collections are too extensive or delicate to transport safely. Our in-home appraisers handle coins, bars, and collectibles with professional care. Whether you own a few bullion bars or hundreds of graded coins, we come prepared.
3. Expertise You Can Trust
Our appraisers are seasoned professionals who follow industry standards set by the American Numismatic Association (ANA) and other recognized organizations. We bring the same level of precision and honesty you’d get in a high-end shop.
4. Fair Market Offers
We pay based on live market data, not outdated pricing. This ensures you get competitive, real-time value for your coins or precious metals—right from your kitchen table.
5. Peace of Mind
There’s comfort in knowing you don’t have to travel with your valuables. Every transaction is recorded, transparent, and handled with professional courtesy.
How It Works
Here’s a step-by-step guide to how our home appointment process works for clients in Lafayette and nearby areas like Broussard, Youngsville, and Carencro.
Step 1: Schedule Your Appointment
Contact Lafayette Coin Buyers through our website or by phone. We’ll confirm your location, discuss what you’d like appraised, and schedule a convenient time. Most appointments can be set up within 24–48 hours.
Step 2: Professional Arrival and Setup
On the day of your appointment, our licensed appraiser arrives on time and fully equipped. We respect your space—no mess, no stress. Everything happens on a small table or countertop.
Step 3: Item Review and Appraisal
We evaluate each piece carefully, checking factors like metal content, mint marks, condition, rarity, and market demand. For gold or silver items, we use portable testing tools (such as an XRF analyzer) to confirm purity.
Step 4: Explanation and Offer
After reviewing your collection, we explain our findings in plain language. You’ll receive a no-obligation offer based on real market prices.
Step 5: Immediate Payment
If you choose to sell, we provide payment on the spot. For larger transactions, bank transfers can be arranged. Everything is documented with a clear receipt for your records.
Step 6: Follow-Up and Support
We’re available even after the sale. If you find additional items later or have questions about the appraisal, our team is just a call away.
What We Buy at Home Appointments
Our in-home buying service covers a wide range of coins, precious metals, and collectibles. Whether you’re cleaning out an estate or liquidating part of your investment portfolio, we provide accurate evaluations for all the following:
1. Gold Coins and Bullion
We buy American Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs, South African Krugerrands, and other popular bullion coins. We also purchase gold bars, rounds, and vintage gold coins from any mint.
2. Silver Coins and Bars
From 90% “junk” silver coins to 1-ounce rounds and 100-ounce bars, we pay strong prices for silver in any form. We also buy Morgan and Peace silver dollars, Mercury dimes, and Franklin halves.
3. Rare and Collectible Coins
If you own older U.S. or world coins with numismatic value, our appraisers can help identify key dates, mint errors, and premium varieties. Many Lafayette collectors are surprised to find that a single coin can be worth thousands.
4. Platinum and Palladium Coins
We purchase all types of platinum and palladium bullion, including U.S. Mint and foreign issues.
5. Scrap and Broken Jewelry
Our specialists can evaluate unwanted or broken gold jewelry by karat and weight. Even old class rings, chains, and mismatched earrings have value.
6. Estate and Inherited Collections
If you’ve inherited coins or precious metals, we can sort, catalog, and appraise the entire lot during one visit. Estate appraisals are handled with patience and confidentiality.
Who This Is For
Our home appointment service is ideal for anyone who wants a private, convenient, and secure way to sell or appraise coins, bullion, or precious metals in Lafayette.
Here’s who benefits most:
1. Collectors with Large Holdings
If you’ve built a substantial collection over the years, transporting it can be risky. Home visits ensure your assets stay safe and insured on your premises.
2. Families Handling Estates
When a loved one passes, heirs often discover coin collections but aren’t sure what they’re worth. We can come to your home, explain each item, and help you decide which pieces to keep or sell.
3. Elderly or Mobility-Limited Clients
We proudly serve clients who find travel difficult. Our staff treats every client with respect and ensures a comfortable, professional experience at home.
4. Investors Who Value Discretion
Some clients simply prefer privacy. Whether you own gold bars, proof sets, or rare pieces, we keep every visit confidential.
5. Busy Professionals
We understand time is valuable. A home appointment allows you to handle your transaction efficiently—often within an hour.
