About TFJ Coins
Welcome to TFJ Coins (TFJCoins.com), your trusted digital destination for historical numismatics, rare United States coinage, world money, and early American exonumia. Backed by a proud multi-generational family heritage in professional horology, fine craftsmanship, and numismatic curation based in Townsend, Massachusetts, we bring decades of hands-on expertise directly to collectors, historians, and precious metals investors nationwide.
Our Numismatic Commitment
Every coin, token, and piece of paper money in our inventory is hand-selected and rigorously evaluated for authenticity, strike quality, variety, and historical preservation. We believe that numismatics is more than just collecting bullion—it is tangible history. Our curated catalog spans:
-
United States Coinage: From early copper half cents and large cents through classic 90% silver series—including Barber, Walking Liberty, Morgan, and Peace dollars—up to modern gold and silver bullion.
-
World & Ancient Issues: Centuries of global commerce, featuring ancient Greek and Roman coinage, medieval European issues, Asian trade dollars, and regional rarities.
-
Historical Exonumia: A specialized focus on American numismatic history, including Civil War patriotic tokens, Hard Times tokens, merchant scrip, and historical paper currency.
Our Curated Collection
Because we come from a deep background in hands-on restoration and material arts, we bring a unique eye for quality and value. Our coin inventory is not a bulk list of common-date bullion; it is a carefully assembled showcase of history. From early colonial pieces and medieval European rarities to world and ancient milestones, we bridge the gap between ancient worlds and modern collectors.
You will find:
-
Medieval European & Byzantine rarities
-
Japanese, Chinese, and international key dates
-
Roman Empire and ancient artifacts
-
The most popular and sought-after U.S. type coins and dates
Rooted in Expertise, Built for Collectors
While our sister enterprise, Townsend Fine Jewelry, continues a long-standing tradition of custom jewelry design and precision timepiece restoration in our physical storefront, TFJCoins.com is dedicated entirely to the serious pursuit of numismatics. We combine traditional collector trust with a modern e-commerce experience, featuring transparent grading, accurate historical narratives, and a passion for preserving the physical artifacts of our shared past.
The "See Before You Buy" Advantage
We know that buying online can be intimidating, especially with high-value rarities. While anonymous marketplace platforms leave room for doubt, we offer total transparency.
Because we operate a physical retail location, you are always welcome to schedule a visit to view any coin in person before committing to a purchase. For clients farther away, we offer our "Pay at the Shop" or secure appointment options, ensuring complete peace of mind. This is our promise: you will never receive a coin that falls short of expectations.
Our Guarantee
Every coin in our inventory is hand-selected for its rarity, quality, and historical significance. We stand firmly behind the absolute authenticity of every piece we sell, backed by decades of professional experience in the fine arts, antiques, and trade.
