The sales above feature a wide array from all over the world and offer notes from Abyssinia to Zimbabwe and just about every country you can imagine. There are notes in all price ranges that should appeal to collectors from across the numismatic realm.
We also have the following sales planned for the next six months, with more sales added as our offerings continue to grow rapidly:
May: May 2025 World Collector’s Choice Online Internet Only Auction
Late May: The Canadian Banknote Sale Internet Only Auction
Early July: Mid-Year Sale with Live & Internet Sessions
August: Global Showcase Auction: Our annual Americas Only Sale with Live & Internet Sessions
September: Summer 2025 Around the Globe Internet Only Auction
October: Fall 2025 Maastricht and Hong Kong Sales with Live & Internet Sessions
Many of our sales now feature multiple sessions, with spots reserved for specialized collections and offerings. For example, the Windsor Collection of QEII Paper Money was a collection carefully assembled by a single collector and we offered in a single, specialized session. We have been working hard at making sure that our auctions are the most collector-driven in the marketplace, assuring both stellar results for consignors and opportunities for buyers to acquire the notes they are looking for. Along with an ever-increasing client list and global news coverage acquired through our sales of the L. E. Bruun Collection, now could be the right time to sell your entire collection or duplicate pieces. We are accepting consignments for most of the sales listed above. To start the consignment process, please contact Dennis Hengeveld at [email protected] or call 800-458-4646.
