Universal Coin & Bullion Reviews

I was a commodity trader. I started doing business with Universal Coin back in 2009, and I've always been happy with them. I trust them and everything's always right neck accurate. The items are exactly what I've ordered. I've referred a lot of business to them that made bigger purchases than I have. The nice thing is, Josh, the rep, has always taken care of me when I've done that. ‘Cause I told him, “Scratch my back, I'll scratch yours,” as the old saying goes. And he's always taking care of me when I've sent people, because people and colleagues, I always tell them, “Do business with Universal Coin. They're professionals. They've been around a long time and they got great staff.” Sometimes I would get a different price when I would be talking to Josh but I'd say, “Can you refresh and see what you're showing versus what I'm showing?” And he would always nail it.

A man had a newsletter that I subscribed to and he mentioned Forest in Universal Coin & Bullion as somebody he bought coins from. Because I didn't know who to use or trust, and because this man recommended it and he was former CIA, I called Universal. I specifically asked for Forest. I told him, over the years, that that's how I got his name. He wasn't aware that he was in this man's newsletter. He has big customers. I am no big person, but he treats me like I am. He's such a gentleman, he's so warm and friendly, and he answers questions.

I like Universal Coin. It's a nice company. They always treated me really nicely and things have gone really well. Universal Coin seems to make me happy when I'm buying silver. They just send it to my house through the United States Postal Service and the deliveries are good. When I buy gold, I go to JM Bullion because they seem to have a better tracking thing. When you buy gold, you pay a lot more for the gold. And I don't want them to go, “Oops. We're sorry. We lost your $4,500 coin, and you're not gonna get it.” For some reason, Universal Coin doesn't ensure as much that I'm gonna get the coin. It's really nice, though. They package it in a non-advertising packet, so the Postal Service is not tempted to steal the coin or whoever's delivering it. I really like that a lot. Then, if you buy one or two, they wrap it up really well, and it comes in a plastic container, outside, a soft plastic thing. Not a Ziploc baggie.

I've gotten a few things from Universal Coin. Clint has been really helpful, personable, and fun to talk to. It’s just a good experience working with someone who has the same values and on the same page. So, I'd say the total experience with the organization has been very good. I probably would purchase from them again. There are things that might come up.

I was at the NRA Convention in Atlanta, where Universal Coin & Bullion was the official NRA coin and bullion exchange. They were the only show in town at the time, and I wanted a one-ounce NRA coin along with a few other items they had for sale. The people working at the booth were friendly and professional. The items I bought were priced just over the spot price, which is normal, and there were no surprises if you pay attention. My only regret is that 20 years ago, when my daughter was born, gold was about $330 an ounce. I remember when it was hovering at $1,000 an ounce in 2008, and now it’s closing over $4,000 an ounce. Silver has gone up too. Looking back, I wish I had bought more earlier.

I purchased 1 gold buffalo from Universal Coin a little more than a year ago. Now the sales department won't stop calling me! Several different people have called me and left me messages telling me to call them because they have a "Great Deal for me". I have NEVER been harassed so much by any company in my life. Like a bunch of used car salesman they won't leave me alone. I will NEVER make a gold purchase from this company again.! Stop calling me! ... I have said this directly to the salesman before.....but they don't listen.....

Universal Coin & Bullion has been a good outfit. Communicating with them was simple and easy. The purchases I've made so far have good quality. I've got coins and another product from them. Universal's product quality and the service stand out. Those are two important things.

I heard about Universal Coin through the NRA magazine. I bought from them, and the products I received have been fine. Their communication was fine as well, and the process was straightforward.

I’ve been very happy with Universal Coin and would work with them again in the future.

I found out about Universal Coin through NRA and I liked who they had working with them. The products are mostly good too. Last time, I felt a little slighted, but not bad. I paid a little higher price, $300 a coin, than I could find it otherwise. Because I've dealt with them before and I went with their knowledge and not mine. They have better knowledge of it than me. The delivery also took little longer than I expected, but it was fine. It didn't make any difference at that point. Mostly, I've been okay with Universal Coin. They've steered me in the right direction and the communication has been good. Occasionally, they overplay their sale and if I tell them no, they keep pushing. They're a little pushy sometimes.
