Franklin Mineral Rock and History LLC

Large selection of superb pieces, with reasonable prices.

I have known Ted for close to a year and have visited his shop with my family in Franklin, N.J. almost every week (sometimes snow and COVID-19 hampered my visits). The minerals he has on display and for sale at Franklin Mineral Rock and History are by far, some of the absolute best I have ever seen and had the opportunity to handle and inspect before I purchased. There is something for everyone at Franklin Mineral Rock and History, from affordable starter pieces to museum quality specimens. Ted is an honest, fair and educated gentleman who knows his mineral specimens from the district (he grew up there, his family worked in the mines, his history goes way back). If you want something to do in Sussex County, if you want to bring your children to a place where they can come away with meaningful treasure and piece of New Jersey History - take the time to visit his shop in Franklin, N.J. No funny business, fair, honest, educated - you can't go wrong with Ted and his store!

Owner is very helpful and has great material for sale nice to see someone in that town try to persevere the Surrounding mining history and to collect the amazing minerals from this world famous location

Had a great experience visiting the store. The owner Ted was very nice and was willing to share lots of mining history and information about his products.

The store offers a lot of minerals from beginner to advanced collector.
