Michael Coins is a retail shop just off the main Notting Hill Gate high street, in West London, England - at 6 Hillgate Street. See map.
It has traded in coins for over 30 years and is run by Michael Gouby, author of "The British Bronze Penny 1860 to 1970" and "The British Bronze Coinage 1860 to 1869" which is to be released shortly.
All grades of items from the common to the very rare are dealt with.
Coins: As well as British - there is a selection from most countries from around the World. Our main specialty is in milled British copper & bronze varieties.
The main reference books that we use for British milled coin varieties are:
Peter J Davies "British Silver Coins - since 1816" - for GB silver coins
Michael Gouby (Our book) "The British Bronze Penny 1860 to 1970" - for bronze pennies
Michael J. Freeman "The Bronze Coinage of Great Britain" - halfpence and farthings.
C. Wilson Peck "English Copper, Tin and Bronze Coins 1558 - 1958" - pre 1860 coins.
For World Coins we tend to use the Krause publication catalogues.
Roman & Ancient coins: We have a small selection of these items but for the time being they will not be listed on the site.
However, we suggest that if you require ancient coins - check and see what our friend, Alistair Mackay, has in stock - he has a good cross section of items listed, with pictures, at www.coinmac.com.
Banknotes: There is also a reasonable stock of British from the early Treasury notes through to some of the more modern issues; the denominations in stock can range from the Ten shillings note up to the white £100.00 pound note. The World selection of banknotes covers most countries from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe; from old to new and from poor to uncirculated condition.
The main reference book that we use for British banknotes is Vincent Duggleby "English Paper Money".
For world banknotes we tend to use the Krause publication catalogues.
Medallions, Books & Accessories are also available.
Visitors to the shop will also find that there is a small selection of stamps, cigarette cards, postcards, etc.
The opening hours are 10:00am to 5:00pm Mondays to Fridays. Special appointments can sometimes be made outside these hours - by arrangement.
Michael Coins is primarily a retail shop rather than a mail order establishment - so why not visit next time you are in London. See the map to find where we are.
If visiting the shop is not possible then we will do our best to provide a postal service and send items to you.
