Value of gold coins

The value of gold coins is not only determined by the gold content and the current gold price, but also by their rarity and numismatic value. For example, many gold tens and gold ducats represent more than just their precious metal value, especially when they are of high quality or come from a special edition. Rare gold coins with a rich history can even exceed their gold price many times in an international auction.

What do I need to know before selling my gold coin?
At Schulman, we offer various solutions to sell your collection. In addition to sales through our auctions, we can also offer direct sales. We then make an offer based on current market prices and pay immediately.
  1. The weight and content of the coin
  2. The current gold price, which determines the base value.
  3. Collective value: rarity, year, origin and condition can increase the value.
  4. The condition of the coin: wear, scratches or damage affect the price.

Among other things, we deal with:
  1. Rare and historic coins with special dates, variants or interesting origins.

How does Schulman B.V. determine the value of my gold coin?
The value is determined by:
  1. Weight and content of the gold
  2. The current gold price.
  3. Collective value: rarity, popularity, historical significance.
  4. The condition of the coin: undamaged pieces pay more.
For special items, the auction proceeds can be much higher than the gold value.
Why do I need to register a credit card when I sign up for online bidding?
Yes. You can choose between:
  1. Direct purchasing - fast and clear.
  2. Auction consignment - ideal for rare or special coins.
Auctions can offer higher returns thanks to international bidders and broad promotion.
Can I sell gold coins from abroad?
Safety and fair auctions are the top priority at Schulman. That's why we require credit card authentication upon registration to participate in live bids. This prevents identity fraud and so-called “ghost bids”. The credit card you register does not have to be used for payment, it can be made by invoice.
You can ship your coin insured, bring it in person, or we can advise you on safe transport options.
What is the best way to prepare my coin for sale?
  1. Do not clean, polish or polish. This decreases the value.
  2. Keep the coin safe in a case or capsule.
  3. Collect any certificates or old valuations.
  4. Take clear photos before the first review.
  5. Talk to our experts about which sales method gives the best results.
