Who are Great British Coins…..

Welcome to Great British Coins, based in sunny Yorkshire. My name is Matthew and here at Great British Coins we offer a variety of Historic British coinage as well as Irish, Scottish, Ancient & World coins & tokens. Our passion for numismatics began over two decades ago, inspired by my grandad George: when I was six or so, I was sitting by his chair, and he handed me a worn old silver coin from 1834 and said, “Imagine all the people that have touched this coin and the things it’s been used to buy.” That thought set off my imagination and my coin-collecting journey!

With 20 years of experience collecting, buying, and selling coins, Great British Coins is dedicated to offering authentic pieces for collectors, investors, history enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the stories behind every coin. We source our inventory from a variety of reputable suppliers to ensure quality and diversity.

Every coin we sell is guaranteed genuine and comes with a lifetime authenticity guarantee, so you can buy with complete confidence. We’re proud to serve customers worldwide—if you’re ordering from outside the UK, please be aware that any import fees or tariffs are the buyer’s responsibility.

Discover the rich history and timeless appeal of historic coinage with us. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just beginning your journey, we’re here to help you find the perfect addition to your collection!
