We have the expertise and resources to handle coins from ancient Greece and Rome to the latest collector coins from the Royal Australian Mint and the Perth Mint. We handle many coins made of precious metals from right around the world - gold coins; silver coins; platinum coins and even palladium coins.

We have handled a number of Australia's most important proof coins, specimen coins and pattern coins.

Many of these are truly rare and historic coins that have been graded by PCGS or NGC; all of our raw coins are graded to the Australian adjectival standard.

Each of the coins we’ve listed has a full written description accompanied by high-resolution images. We aim to provide you with as much information as you need to make a decision, so please use the contact us button or the live chat tool if you have a specific question about any of the coins you see.

If you are looking for a coin from a specific country around the world, let us know and we'll see if we can track it down for you.
