About the Owner
My name is Joel Mitchell. Old Mint Coin & Bullion was born in 1992 when I purchased the coin shop right across the street from the former Carson City Mint. This location has been a coin shop almost forever. I have had a partner or two over the years and now it is back to just me doing all of the fun stuff, buying and selling coins, evaluating collections and meeting all of the tourist that come to town for the Carson City Mint tour and the general atmosphere of our State Capitol.
As mentioned before our shop is located in Carson City, Nevada. Carson City is a great town located 30 miles south of Reno on highway 395. Like most cities (there are about five towns in Nevada big enough to actually call a "city") in Nevada, Carson City is a 24 hour town filled with casinos. However there are many other things to do here including world class skiing/snowboarding, a myriad of special events, hundreds of historical sights, and outdoor sports ranging from hunting to mountain biking. The Annual Coin Show, early September and the Ghost Walk in late October are local favorites, contact the Nevada State Museum for info.
Every once in a while I discover something that I would like to share and recommend. I recently had the pleasure of eating at real Barbeque Joint and that is an affectionate term. The owners, Jeff & Michele, call their place Mountain View Barbeque. They are in Walker California, about an hour and fifteen minutes or so south of Carson City on Hwy 395 or a great drive through the mountains from South Lake Tahoe. Folks, this is the real thing, and worth the short scenic drive for ribs to brisket. Call them for the their hours and tell them how many are coming. 1-530-496-2107. Email them at Ribgal@hotmail.com .
The best thing to do, after visiting our shop of course, is visiting the former Carson City Mint / Nevada State Museum which is located directly across the street from our coin shop. You can visit the Museum now by clicking here.
I have a passion for rare coins and quality customer service. My goal is to provide my customers with great coins at great prices and be as helpful as possible. When you view our list of inventory you will see coins that are conservatively graded and accurately described.
If you have any comments or question feel free to call 1-800-649-2646 or email me

If you decide to come to our area stop by and see us, we'd like to meet you. If you need to ask about the values of coins that you have please bring them with you. We are on the north east corner of Carson St., the main drag, and Robinson St. directly across the street from the Nevada State Museum/Carson City Mint in the downtown area. The local telephone number is 884-4344, a local call from Reno and most of the Lake Tahoe area, give us a call, tell us where you are and we will give you easy directions or write them down now.
From Reno
You need to come south on Hwy 395 or Virginia St., they both go to Carson City and become one along the way. As you top the hill into Carson you need to be in the right hand lane to avoid getting on the bypass. Come down the hill and start counting the traffic signals. The sixth red light will be Williams/ Hwy 50 East the next signal is Washington. Just past Washington there is a Shell Gas Station on your left then a street then a parking lot. Make a left onto the street and an immediate right into the parking lot. My shop windows face directly into the parking lot. You're There!
From Lake Tahoe
Take Hwy 50 east and come down the hill, it's really is a big hill so don't try it if it is snowing, we will get together on another day. At the bottom of the hill Hwy 50 more or less ends and becomes Carson St. and for those traveling through it is also Hwy 50 East and Hwy 395 North if you turn left and 395 South if you turn right. Turn left. You are going to drive though town for several miles and several red lights. When you get to the intersection of Carson St. & Fifth St. you are getting close. Keep going though the traffic signals at Musser St. and Robinson St.. Just past Robinson St. is my shop, that parking lot described above and that street. Make a right and a right and you are in the parking lot.
