Maine Gold & Silver
A South Portland showroom for rare coins, bullion and jewelry, with a relocation notice to check before visiting.
Coins within a wider South Portland showroom
Maine Gold & Silver combines coin valuation and precious metals with a jewelry business. Its rare-coin page identifies US and world coins, certified pieces and historic currency, as well as buying and selling gold and silver bullion.
Explain whether you want to explore a collecting series or compare metal formats. If your visit includes jewelry and coins, ask for each part to be discussed on its own terms. A single total for a mixed group can make it harder to understand how a particular coin was assessed.

Service history and a showroom in transition
The operator dates its service to South Portland and greater Maine to 1959. That statement concerns the business history; the reviewed pages do not establish when the current showroom opened. The homepage also advertises a moving sale.

Make bullion comparisons specific
When comparing gold or silver pieces, note the stated metal content, the issuing mint or manufacturer, and whether you are considering a coin, bar or round. Ask for the complete transaction amount rather than comparing a display number with a different product elsewhere. If a piece carries a collector premium, ask what feature accounts for it and how that feature will appear on the receipt.
For a certified coin, preserve its holder details in your records and check that the description matches the example being offered. A useful collecting note explains why the coin fits your interests, as well as what it cost.
Verify the location before the journey
The contact page currently lists 220 Maine Mall Road, Suite 4, South Portland, ME 04106, and 207-772-2211, and invites drop-in visits. Because the site is advertising a move, confirm the active showroom address directly. A replacement address and move date were not established in the reviewed page text.
