Houston Numismatic Exchange

A Rice Village coin and precious-metals business serving collectors of U.S., world and ancient coins, currency and bullion, with appraisal and estate-related services listed by PCGS.

Coins in Houston’s Rice Village

Houston Numismatic Exchange is located at 2486 Times Boulevard in the Rice Village shopping area. Its official website describes rare coins, precious metals and jewelry, including buying and selling metals. The PCGS dealer directory independently lists the same customer-facing address.

For Collect Silver readers, this adds a Houston location alongside the existing Austin and San Antonio guides. Treat the page as a way to identify a potentially relevant specialist, then discuss your exact requirements with the shop.

Two differently stated history dates

The company’s website traces its history to 1965. The Better Business Bureau instead records a business-start date of July 1, 1974. These dates are attributed separately: the available sources do not explain the difference or establish when the Times Boulevard premises first opened.

A long history is useful context, but does not settle the authenticity, grade or value of any coin. Ask for the evidence and terms that apply to the particular item you are considering.

Numismatics alongside precious metals

PCGS lists U.S., world and ancient coins, bullion coins and currency among the dealer’s specialties. Its profile also identifies appraisal and buying or estate-liquidation services. The official site’s precious-metals offering includes silver bullion; current stock and quotes must be checked with the dealer.

Decide whether you are seeking a collectible coin, a metal-weight purchase or an evaluation of an inherited group. Those purposes call for different questions about grade, provenance, premiums, documentation and the scope of an appraisal.

Check the official contact details

Call 713-528-2135 or consult the official location page before visiting Rice Village. The official website and PCGS directory display different schedules, so this guide does not reproduce an opening timetable. Appointment expectations for a large evaluation should also be agreed directly.

Describe the number and type of items in advance and ask whether an evaluation carries a fee. Confirm payment methods and any return conditions before buying. Do not assume that a dealer-directory category means every example will be bought or appraised.

Take a short list

Three questions for the counter

  1. Do you currently handle this type of coin, currency or bullion?
  2. Can you explain the grade, authenticity evidence and return terms for this piece?
  3. Should I book time for an estate evaluation, and what are the fees?
