A Houston Institution Celebrates 40 Years of Treasures and Traditions

A family-owned business with a rich history, U.S. Coins & Jewelry is proud to announce its 40th anniversary in a bold way during National Coin Week (April 20-26). The occasion marks the start of an exciting year-long celebration, featuring a regional treasure hunt, new showroom, expanded services, and exclusive deals on rare coins and precious metals.

  • A treasure hunt with rare coins and gold hidden in four locations across the Greater Houston area
  • A 40-year milestone, with a new 8,000-square-foot flagship showroom opening in Summer 2025
  • Exclusive deals on rare coins, historic currency, and precious metals throughout National Coin Week

The treasure hunt will feature clues and prizes hidden in various locations across the region. U.S. Coins & Jewelry will reveal the locations and clues on social media, and the first person to solve each clue and find the hidden coin will claim a prize. This exciting initiative aims to spark the curiosity and wonder of coin collecting among kids, families, and collectors alike.

“Coin collecting is a timeless hobby-often called the ‘hobby of kings,’” said Kenny Duncan Jr., co-owner of U.S. Coins & Jewelry. “Our hope is that this treasure hunt sparks that same curiosity and wonder in kids, families and longtime collectors alike. It’s the perfect way to kick off a milestone year of celebration for U.S. Coins & Jewelry.”

The treasure hunt marks the official kickoff of U.S. Coins & Jewelry’s 40th anniversary celebration and serves as a catalyst for announcing the company’s upcoming expansion to an 8,000-square-foot flagship showroom at 8501 Katy Freeway. The expanded location will include private dealer rooms, a dedicated sports card zone, and a newly launched luxury watch division offering collectible timepieces from renowned brands.

As part of the celebration, U.S. Coins & Jewelry will host daily in-store giveaways, offer free coin collector kits, and feature exclusive deals on rare coins and precious metals. The company aims to create an immersive experience for collectors and enthusiasts, showcasing its vast collection of rare treasures. “We wanted this year’s treasure hunt to reflect the communities that have supported us for four decades,” said Matthew Duncan, co-owner of U.S. “By expanding beyond the city limits, we’re giving more people across the Houston region a chance to join the fun and experience the excitement of the hunt.”
This year’s National Coin Week theme-“Iconic Change: Pop Culture & Coins Unite!”-was created by the American Numismatic Association to highlight the connection between coins and pop culture. The company’s expanded showroom will position it as one of the largest coin and collectibles shops in the United States, reaffirming its status as a must-visit destination for collectors and investors throughout Texas and beyond.
