Coins of the Globe is a website dedicated to providing coins and bankotes from around the world to collectors. My name is John Cross, a former collector turned dealer. I have done coin shows throughout Pennsylvania and New York in the fall and spring since 1990. I have had my numismatic website available to collectors worldwide since 1997. I am a lifetime member of the Jamestown Coin Club, and former member and guest speaker for the RNA (Rochester Numismatic Association).
I am fascinated with coins and currency of the world. I am a generalist rather than specialist. I deal in the entire world - Afghanistan to Zimbabwe - and encompass the entire era of coin production from 1600 BC to the present.
Although I do not specialize in a particular country or time frame, my greatest emphasis has been world coins minted before 1950, and world currency printed after 1950. This website usually contains a little something for everyone, with coins from only a dollar or two, up to $1000.00 or more. From beginner to advanced collector, you should find some items of interest throughout my website.
Discount pricing has always been a part of my business philosophy. Rewarding customers for purchasing larger orders has been my approach to business for the past 20 years. My long term customers tell me that I consistently have some of the best values and variety in the world coin industry. My grading is conservative, and I rarely ever have returns. Please check out my world coin sets and wholesale lots listed under Special Deals!
I am happy to send a picture to you of any coin you are interested in. I pride myself on customer service and processing quickly any order, no matter how small or large. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you find some nice items to add to your collection!
