About Us
See We Really Are A Family Business!
Our family has been in business for over 38 years, now on its 4th generation of family workers. What started as simple coin show hopping has turned into the largest coin shop in Dayton, Ohio with over 4,000 square feet of coins, jewelry and collectibles.
Centerville Coin & Jewelry prides itself on the quality of the products we sell, as well as the quality of our service. We offer jewelry design and repair, customized engraving services, watch battery replacement and refurbishment, personal shopper and corporate gift giving services, school and community fund raising, along with appraisal services for your jewelry and coin collections.
From time to time finding the perfect gift is a real challenge. Over the last few years our store has acquired a reputation as a source for unusual gifts that hold their value for generations to come. Our selection just about has something for everyone and every occasion.
In 1972, Centerville Coin & Jewelry Connection started off as a family-run business. Over the years, we have grown and expanded our employee base. It seems that every time we hire someone new, it comes from within. So we invite you to look below and see that we really are a family-run business!!
