I will be in Cebu City for a few days.
Any Good coin shops that I can visit?

Thanks

Absolute no coin shop in Cebu.

There is a watch repair shop who has some coins. I am not sure he is only collector but i buy sometimes from him. Ask the taxi driver to bring you to sampaguita suites on the mango street and enter the shopping passage after ten meters on the right site. Ask for Jarro but expect not to much

thanks mr. bantayan.. i had been to cebu several times and will probably be there again one of these days.. i asked around the city streets and found that some watch repair stalls buy and sell coins, but mostly in not so good condition and they price it high since i cannot speak cebuano.. i was not able to buy a single coin because of that, and i have not found any coin that i do not have yet..

There are some of that street sellers in downtown but i don´t like to point them to somebody when i am not sure that the one knows anough about coins they try to cheat and there are many snatchers. Give me a PM some days before you come maybe we meet and i will bring you there.

i was advised to be careful in buying coins from cebu, as there are many fake coins which is so hard to distinguish from the authentic ones (unless you have a keen eye in spotting the difference)...

I guess not more than in other cities. There are everywhere some black sheeps who sell fakecoins

Hi Bantayan and All,

Thanks for the tips and leads.

Although, the trip will be a bit tight in terms of schedule, I will try t make time to see the guy in Mango ave.

Best regards
