When you bring foreign & canadian silver coins to our counter at 27842 W. Warren Ave in Westland, the first thing we do is establish exactly what it is. Nothing is quoted from across the room and nothing is quoted from a photograph. We work at the counter with you standing there, and we explain each step as we go — what we are testing, what the test told us, and what it means for the number we are about to write down.
The single biggest factor on foreign & canadian silver coins is country and year, which determine silver fineness. After that comes canadian pre-1967 (80% silver) and pre-1920 (92.5%) issues, and at the far end of the list sits collector value on scarcer world issues beyond the silver content — the part most sellers never hear about anywhere else, because most buyers would rather pay a flat rate and move you along. We would rather show our work, because customers who understand the offer come back, and this shop has run on repeat customers since 1987.

Canadian silver dollars from 1935–1967 hold about 0.6 troy oz of silver each. Mixed foreign jars are sorted by country and year at the counter. That range is why we ask you to bring everything rather than picking out the pieces you assume are best. The item that looks least impressive in the drawer is frequently the one carrying the most value, and sorting it out costs you nothing.
How to spot it
Where to look for the marks
Most world silver states its fineness or is identifiable by date and country. We look everything up rather than guessing.
What to bring
- Valid state ID
- All coins, including partial rolls and loose silver
- Any certification slabs, albums or inventory lists
There is never any obligation. We will test foreign & canadian silver coins, tell you the number, and hand it straight back if you would rather think about it, shop the offer around, or keep it. Plenty of people do exactly that and come back a week later — that is completely fine, and you will get the same welcome the second time.
Sell it outright
Coin collections are often pawned rather than sold — you get the liquidity without breaking up a set you spent years building.
We are open monday – friday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM and saturday 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM, with free parking right at the door and no appointment needed. If you would like a sense of the number before you drive over, call (734) 425-0450 and describe what you have, or send photos through the quote form and we will come back to you the same day.
Or pawn it and keep it
If you would rather not part with it permanently, a pawn loan on foreign & canadian silver coins gives you cash today while the item stays tagged and insured in our vault. No credit check, nothing reported to any bureau, and the item comes back the moment the loan is repaid. We will lay out both numbers — the outright offer and the loan amount — and let you choose.

What about foreign coins that aren't silver?+
