Auctioneers resources
No coin and medal specialist in-house?
Bringing in a consultant for your lots can be expensive — I know, as I work as an external consultant for auctioneers, museums, insurers and the legal sector.
But what if you could get each lot identified, accurately graded, and a pre-sale estimate provided, all from just £2 each? What’s more, the service is backed by full indemnity insurance.
How it works
From saleroom floor to catalogue in three steps
Coin Finder identifies coins and medals from a photograph in moments — and when a lot needs a grade and an estimate with a professional’s name behind it, Dr Nicholas George FRNS provides it for you, based on the pictures and the identification.
- 1
Photograph
Front and back, on a phone, where the lot sits. No lightbox, no scanner.
- 2
Identify
Coin Finder returns the monarch or issuer, denomination, date, mint and type, with the catalogue reference where available.
- 3
Grade and estimate
With a grading pack, Dr George grades the lot and gives a pre-sale estimate, ready for the catalogue.
Who you are dealing with
A professional’s name behind every grade and estimate
Every grade and pre-sale estimate is provided personally by Dr Nicholas P George FRNS, a time-served numismatic consultant who works for solicitors, insurance companies, museums and auction houses — and it is covered by his professional indemnity insurance.
