    Sold half sovereigns

    The process was very straightforward and quick. Coins posted on the Wednesday, delivered on the Thursday, money paid on the Friday. Insured Royal Mail post was quick but quite expensive.

    Coin collection sale. After collecting gold and silver coins…

    After collecting gold and silver coins for a few years, I decided to sell my collection. Having bought coins from Atkinsons on several occasions I knew that they were a reputable company, checked the website and obtained a very fare price. The whole process was straightforward, the staff I spoke to were friendly and helpful. I cannot praise the company enough and will have no qualms in recommending them to friends and colleagues.

This service ensures your parcel is insured up to £2,500. If the total value of your items exceeds this, you should split them into separate parcels - each containing a value of less than £2,500.
