Selling medals

Medals are often more than just collectibles. They carry stories of ancient traditions, important events and personal memories. Think of guild medals associated with crafts, family medals that have been passed down for generations, or history medals that mark a special event. If you want to sell medals, you want this to be done in a careful and professional manner. At Schulman b.v., with more than 145 years of experience in numismatics, you are assured of a reliable valuation and professional sales assistance.

Value of medal

The value of a medal is determined by various factors. Rarity plays a major role, as some medals are only minted in limited editions and are therefore very popular among collectors. Quality and preservation are also very important. A badge that is well preserved and whose details are clearly visible usually represents a higher value than an item that shows a lot of wear. In addition, the historical or personal context often contributes to the appeal. A badge associated with a famous person, guild or historical event usually has a higher collectable value.
