Sell Your Coins
Using a trusted, established coins buyers to sell old coins and notes online give you certain undeniable benefits. We understand the market for collectable British coins very well, we have spent decades building a reputation for fair, honest and transparent dealing - something you may not find with a pawnbroker.
We are a business, though. So we generally buy coins for slightly less than their expected sale price. We don't just try to buy gold and offer scrap gold prices. But, because of the volume we do and our ability to predict a collectable coin's sale value very accurately, we can afford to have smaller profit margins than many other coin buyers in the UK. In the end, we make more money if you know you are getting a reasonable price and come back to us.
We buy many coin collections of all kinds from customers who had considered to sell old British coins by auctioning them but were put off by the necessity of breaking the coins up into individualised lots, and the distinct possibility of getting a meager price from unexpectedly disinterested bidders. Selling through an exchange also avoids the hefty insurance and auction fees, as well as giving the seller their money right away. Why not give us a try the next time you are thinking about selling coins!
What Price Prices to Expect
How much can you expect to sell rare coins online for?
This is the real question. The answer depends on the coins, values change on factors such as the condition of the coin, where the coin was minted, and the market for such coins at the time. We can only give you specific prices if you tell us what you have to sell.
In general, you can expect to get between 70% and 85% of your anticipated coins sale value when you sell to us. Yes, a 30% cut may sound like a lot, but that is an extreme example and would represent a coin of uncertain value, or one whose sale price has a chance of dropping sharply before we would be likely to sell it on to another collector. It might also represent a coin that is of a type we do not specialise in. Most coins we buy would be a lot closer to 15% and 20% end of the range.
For help with buying and selling coins, you can use our free coin valuation online tab that is displayed on the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. If you experience any problems or cannot find what you are looking for, please contact us and we'll be happy to assist you with your search.
