Littleton Coin Company was founded by a young man who turned an enthusiasm for collecting into one of the largest firms in the country serving the needs and interests of coin collectors. Maynard Sundman and his wife Fannie, through innovative personalized service including Littleton's "see before you buy" approvals program, made collecting easy, convenient and fun for coin enthusiasts across the country. The brick Tilton Opera Block became the first address of Littleton Stamp & Coin Company in the years following the end of World War II
Led today by Maynard and Fannie's eldest son David, an avid collector himself who grew up in the family business, Littleton Coin continues to expand its inventory of coins and to improve its cordial customer services.
