Half Cent
Dean Albanese - CEO
I am 33 years old and I started collecting coins when my father gave me his first collection at the age of 13, from there I had a love for coins, their beauty and history fascinated me. I am fortunate and
thankful to have such a wonderful father who guided and educated me about coins at a young age, and gave me a chance to turn my hobby into a career in Numismatics.
Now I love to help people add beautiful coins to their collections and portfolios. There is nothing like a beautiful treasure to hold in your hand, it's like looking into a mirror of the past. I have had the opportunity to put together some amazing and historical collections for clients over the years including the 1804 $10 Proof and the 1838 $10 Proof. Over the past 9 years I have assembled over $50 million dollars worth of collector and investment coins with my father and thanks to the internet we see no limit for the sky is huge! Having a true passion for coins I can relate to people when planning out a “blueprint” for a certain portfolio, whether it’s for investment or collection reasons. My personal favorite and specialty coins that I study and deal with are early gold coinage, all Proof Gold (our specialty!), and the Seated Liberty series.
I also love to write and am currently writing my first book which I reveal the subject at a later time.
