• Prepare your coin or lot of coins for the auction, taking photographs and writing an accurate description of the items.
• Send the draft of the auction for review, with photos and descriptions and aspects that the team of experts examine and approve (or disapprove) the lot to be included in an auction.

Step 2 – Category and Pictures

The first thing to do is to select the correct category, where our auction will then appear. It is important not to make a mistake because otherwise the auction will not be accepted or the people interested will never find your coin

Then select “Coins and Banknotes” and click the blue “next” button. You will also have the possibility to choose in detail the category and the specific type of coin you are going to auction. Then from the list choose the correct option, for example if you are auctioning the coins of the lire select “Italian coins” as in the photo, then continue.

Adding the right images is crucial. Needless to say, sending a lot with poor quality, blurry or blurry images where you can’t see the coins you want to sell in detail will certainly result in disapproval. So invest some time in taking beautiful, sharp, bright pictures.

Show as many details as possible, the front and back of the coin, the year, the edge, any defects. We even, to be even more precise, always include a picture of the coin on a sling bar so that the weight of the piece is also visible, which is often an additional factor in determining the authenticity of the piece.

Step 3 – Details and Specifications

Now let’s go into even more detail and enter the country of origin of the coins, the currency, the year, the number of items in the lot and all other information that the system requires you. Among all these very important are the description, which must be as exhaustive as possible and the degree of quality of the coins.

Now it is your turn to enter the data concerning the estimated coin value, the starting price and the reserve price of your lot.

On this new page you will have to enter the shipping costs that the winning user will have to pay to receive the lot. Since the buyer may not be Italian, you will have to inform yourself about the shipping costs of your coins not only in Italy but also in Europe and outside of Europe.

Step 4 – Preview and Approval
