A Lifelong Passion for Coin Collecting

Jerry Petros, founder & owner of Alliance Coins & Jewelry, discovered his passion for coin collecting at age nine. “It’s been in my blood forever,” Petros says. His interest was sparked in 1963 when his father handed him a shiny Denver Mint penny during a family dinner—that moment marked the start of his lifelong journey in coin collecting.

Petros’ first collection, a set of pennies he bought for $6 in Malvern, still hangs in his store today. Reflecting on his early experiences, he says, “I learned everything by making mistakes.”

Building a Business with Integrity

After careers in ceramics engineering and aerospace, Petros opened his first coin shop in the late 1980s. He earned certifications from the state of Ohio, the PCGS, NGC, and ANACS and became a member of several professional organizations. His business grew, eventually relocating to its current site in Alliance in 2013.

In the world of coin collecting, honesty is paramount. Jerry Petros, a seasoned professional, understands this well. He recalls a customer who brought in a gold coin that looked authentic but was a worthless fake. “You have to be on your toes,” he says, emphasizing the importance of honesty and educating customers about their purchases.
