Consign for This SaleUnlike a flat consignment fee, our commission on coins and currency is evaluated on an individual, per-item basis. As the value of a piece goes up, our commission rate comes down, all the way to 0%.

Give us a brief description of your collection and where it's located. We will go over our rolling commission scale, answer any questions you may have along the way, and arrange shipping, pickup, or drop off of your collection.
We inspect each piece. Then photograph and document everything for auction. You will then receive a consignor lot summary prior to the auction going live.
Your items are listed and promoted to our national base of active bidders and collectors, giving each piece real competition for the strongest possible price.
Once each item sells, you're paid according to the rolling commission scale — no fees deducted.
Your items are advertised to a national base of bidders who compete to win them — not just local foot traffic.
A large, loyal following of collectors and dealers means industry-leading prices realized on the pieces you consign.
A competitive buyer's premium keeps bidders coming back, which means more competition — and better prices — on your items.
Affordable, transparent shipping rates handled entirely in-house, not outsourced to a third party. This gives bidders confidence as there's no postage guess work.
Hands-on customer service and order fulfillment from the moment you consign to your final payout.
We use today's technology and search engine optimization to ensure as many bidders as possible see your items.
A detailed look at what we take on consignment, denomination by denomination. If you don't see something listed here, ask — we consider anything of value.
We will also take low-grade, common-date Mercury and Roosevelt dimes from 1964 and earlier. We'll get you the maximum numismatic value, but most buyers of these particular coins are after their bullion value rather than collectibility.
We will also take low-grade, common-date Standing Liberty and Washington quarters from 1964 and earlier. We'll get you the maximum numismatic value, but most buyers of these particular coins are after their bullion value rather than collectibility.
We will also take low-grade, common-date Walking Liberty, Franklin, and Kennedy half dollars from 1970 and earlier. We'll get you the maximum numismatic value, but most buyers of these particular coins are after their bullion value rather than collectibility.
Have something related that isn't listed above? We'll still take a look — just ask.
If you're submitting bulk coins (common wheat cents, for example) alongside key dates or high-grade coins, please keep them separated. Our workflow doesn't allow us to search through bulk submissions for rare dates, otherwise, the bulk will be sold unsearched.
We always work to get the maximum numismatic value for everything we sell, but coins with little collectible value may not realize much more than face or melt value. And if you're ever unsure whether something qualifies — don't worry, we'll closely examine each piece and return anything that doesn't fit.
A coin that hasn't been professionally graded or sealed in a holder.
Authenticated, assigned a condition grade, and sealed in a protective holder by a service like PCGS, NGC, or PMG.
A date or mintmark within a series that's scarcer — and more valuable — than the common dates.
A small letter on a coin showing which US Mint facility struck it (for example, D for Denver, S for San Francisco).
What a piece is worth to collectors, above and beyond its face or melt value.
No. Cleaning almost always lowers a coin's value to collectors, even when it looks nicer to the eye. Cleaned coins are considered "damaged" to collectors and will often lead to lower realizations.
Yes. For sizeable collections or full estates, we can arrange an in-person appointment at our facility or come to you.
Once we receive your items, most consignments are cataloged and included in our next scheduled coin and currency auction. Payment follows generally 2-4 weeks after the fact, unless prior advancements or arrangements are made.
Not necessarily — mailing items in works great for smaller consignments. Appointments are available for larger collections or in-person drop-off and pickup.
When you drop off your collection, you'll receive a signed receipt of drop-off and a complete list of your consignment once the items are cataloged.
Yes. You can either request an insured shipping label from us, or ship on your own to our facility:

Items that go unpaid either go into our next auction or are sent back to you. You will be paid on the next realization.
Coins and currency, especially bullion, attract fraudulent buyers and scammers. On top of vetting, when a winning bidder is questionable or new, we often require irreversible funds (i.e. a wire transfer). This protects both us and our clients from theft.
