点评:What a fantastic shop! I collect pirate coins and look for them in coin shops and antique stores all over the world. Literally every one I have been to increases the price of their pirate coins 3-4 times what they are truly worth. Not the case with Artifacts! Are pirate coins expensive? Yes. Plan on spending $250-350 for a decent starter coin. They are rare pieces of history and that comes at a price. But Charles at Artifacts prices his right where they should be, right where a coin book would suggest they should sell for. And right what I pay for similar coins from my sources. And that is incredible.
And there are lots of other unique greatly Maritime related artifacts there to look at or purchase.
So, go in, have a look! And know that, if you do chose to get something, his prices aren't inflated for tourists, but rather right where they should be, what a true collector would expect to pay.
And what a scholarly and friendly gentleman as well! What a pleasure it was speaking with him and his staff about the artifacts. They were all incredibly knowledgeable about the things they had, and it was fascinating taking the time to learn about the stuff.
翻译:多么棒的商店!我收集海盗硬币,并在世界各地的硬币店和古董店寻找它们。实际上,我去过的每一家店都将他们的海盗硬币的价格提高到其真实价值的 3-4 倍。Artifacts 的情况并非如此!海盗硬币贵吗?是的。计划花 250-350 美元购买一枚不错的入门硬币。它们是历史上的稀有作品,需要付出代价。但 Artifacts 的 Charles 为他的硬币定价恰到好处,正好是硬币书建议的售价。而且正好是我从我的资料来源购买类似硬币的价格。这真是不可思议。
那里还有很多其他独特的与航海相关的文物可供观赏或购买。
所以,进去看看吧!要知道,如果你真的选择买东西,他的价格不会为了游客而抬高,而是恰到好处,是真正的收藏家期望支付的价格。
而且他是一位多么博学和友好的绅士!和他以及他的工作人员谈论这些文物是一件非常愉快的事情。他们都非常了解自己拥有的东西,花时间去了解这些东西是一件非常有趣的事情。
