Appraisals & valuations

Know exactly what your coins are worth.

Independent, credentialed appraisals from specialists in coins and bullion — the kind of replacement-value figure insurance carriers, estate attorneys, and the IRS actually accept. Send photos and cert numbers; we do the rest.

When you actually need an appraisal

Plenty of “free appraisals” are really buy offers in disguise — a wholesale number dressed up as a valuation. A genuine appraisal is different: it's an independent, written opinion of replacement value, prepared to stand up to an insurer, a court, or a tax authority. If you're insuring, settling an estate, or just deciding whether to sell, that's the document you want.

Estate & probate appraisals

Fair-market date-of-death valuations for probate, estate tax filings, and equitable distribution among heirs — accepted by estate attorneys and the IRS.
