CASEY — Doran Coins, a coin collecting and trading business, held its ribbon cutting ceremony this weekend at its new downtown Casey location.

The business, located at 7 N. Central in Casey, specializes in buying and selling collectible and valuable coins for enthusiasts and collectors throughout the region.

“If you have an awesome coin in your collection, don’t let it sit in a drawer,” the company advises potential customers, encouraging them to book appointments for professional appraisals.

Founded in 2002 in Kankakee County, Doran Coins has expanded its reach to serve collectors not only throughout Illinois and Indiana, but across the United States. While the company maintains its Casey headquarters and downtown office, much of its business operates through internet sales and participation in coin shows throughout Illinois and Indiana.

The company’s owner holds Life Membership in several prestigious organizations, including the federally chartered American Numismatic Association, Central States Numismatic Society and the Illinois Numismatic Association. He also maintains regular membership in the Mattoon Coin Club, Fairfield Coin Club, and the Casey Chamber of Commerce.

The new Casey location provides local coin enthusiasts with convenient access to professional coin evaluation and trading services in the downtown business district.
