We help clients who wish to Sell Silver Surrey, Sell Silver Hampshire, Sell coins Surrey, Sell coins Hampshire, Sell Gold Surrey, or even sell gold coins surrey. Our approach is clear from first appraisal to final hammer price, with discreet guidance on silverware, gold jewellery and bullion, sovereigns, proof sets and notable collections.
Our team of valuers have specialist knowledge in precious metals and numismatics—assessing hallmark, maker, carat, weight, rarity, grade and current demand—together with a wealth of experience in general appraisal work.
Home valuations provide privacy and security, and often allow the valuer to point out items of value you may not have realised you owned—particularly mixed boxes of coins, inherited silver, or gold that’s no longer worn. Calling in a valuer before a house clearance can make all the difference.
Auction appraisal and valuation
We’re happy to provide free appraisals on silver, gold and coins. Auctions are exciting and results are not always predictable—competition can push certain coins, rare dates and desirable silver or gold pieces well above their guide price. Our aim is for clients to receive friendly and knowledgeable advice whatever the value.
For items you’re considering selling, appraisals are free of charge; a valuer will give you a price guide, e.g. £100–£150, within which we would expect the lot to sell.
High-value pieces and items with intrinsic value can have a reserve price. If the auctioneer does not receive bids at this level, the item will remain unsold.
Frequently asked questions on appraisal
– What is an auction appraisal?
An appraisal is carried out by an experienced valuer who will estimate the likely auction value of your silver, gold and coins, taking into account past sale results of similar items and their professional judgement of the present market.
– Is it worth bringing items if I’m not sure they’re valuable?
Yes. Sometimes the news is modest; other times clients discover items of considerable value—mixed coin boxes, sovereigns or hallmarked silver often contain pleasant surprises.
– Can you say for sure what the hammer price will be?
No one can be 100% certain. However, there is more certainty where online bidding enables buyers worldwide to bid. Accurate catalogue descriptions help the right collectors find—and bid on—your items.
– Are items safe if left for appraisal?
Yes. All items left with us for valuation are kept securely and are fully insured.
– Do you charge storage fees before an auction?
No. No storage fees are charged before the auction.
– How long will valuation take?
In most cases we can give guidance when we see you. Coins may need closer attribution; silver and gold may require testing (carat/hallmark confirmation). For specialist pieces, further research may be needed—we’ll always let you know.
