About
G'day, I'm Jake.
Coleco Trading started in March 2026 with a simple idea: put good coins in front of collectors live, show them honestly, and let the bidding decide. Since then the shop has sold over 14,000 items on Whatnot, built a following of 2.8K collectors and earned Premier Shop status with a 4.9 rating across 1.4K reviews.
Whether you're filling gaps in a pre-decimal album or picking up your first proof set, you'll get a fair go on every lot.
