Looking to sell a collection you inherited or resell a precious item from your own set of numismatic examples?
Speak to our team of world-class specialists with a combined experience of over 200 years. They can advise on coins, banknotes, military and commemorative medals, tokens, and books.
Our complimentary valuation service is the best way to sell your collection. You’ll be equipped with the best course of action to achieve the highest price, be that a direct sale or a consignment to one of our high-profile auctions around the world.
The world of numismatics is an extremely complicated one, and there are many factors that make these items valuable (such as rarity, condition or age). Therefore, the most accurate valuations are always made when we are able to see the item/s in person.
Valuations by appointment
Visit our store located at 399 Strand in the heart of London, just a few minutes walk from Charing Cross Station. Valuations take place between 9.30 am and 4.30 pm (GMT), Monday to Friday.
We always recommend booking an appointment beforehand.
Valuations by email
We appreciate that not everyone can make it to London. You may get in touch by emailing us directly on:
If you have any questions then please feel free to call us on
+44 (0)20 7930 6879.
We receive many requests for valuation on a daily basis but endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible.
Please do not submit these on social media sites (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook).
Baldwin’s reserves the right to make a charge to cover the cost of our time in the case that valuations require a large amount of research.
Guide to taking photographs
We receive hundreds of images of coins every week and are always delighted to see them. After all, there is nothing we like better than looking at coins.
If you are looking to send us images of your coins or collections, please follow the guide below.
Most of the photographs we receive are taken with smartphones and that is absolutely fine.
Smartphones today carry a large pixel rate and can produce quality images if done correctly.
All of the images below were taken using a smartphone!
The more information we receive about a coin or item, the more accurate we are able to be.
If you plan on sending pictures of your coins or item/s, for a more accurate valuation please ensure that you have included the following:
- High-resolution JPEG images of both sides of the coin or items.
- The type of metal (i.e. silver, copper, etc).
- A full description of the item/s, including where it was acquired (if known).
- The dimensions of the item/s (27mm, 3.4g for example).
What we require:
- Place the coin on a plain and uncluttered background.
- Try not to get too close so that the whole coin sits within the frame of the photograph.
- Watch the lighting, and keep a steady hand.
- No fingers, and if you can send both the reverse and the obverse then all the better.
Remember: the better the image, the more accurate we are able to be in our valuations.
