How selling your coins in Sydney works
From your first call to payment, one team handles everything, from our saleroom in Chippendale.
1. Get in touch
Call us, send photos through our online form, or book a time to visit the saleroom.
2. Free valuation
We assess your coins in Chippendale or at your home and give you a valuation within 24 hours. There is no obligation to sell.
3. Catalogued for auction
We research, photograph and describe each lot, then offer it in a monthly auction, typically 4–8 weeks after consignment.
4. Sold and paid
You’re paid within 30 days of the auction, with a statement showing the price every lot sold for.
Consignments accepted by 31 December 2026 are taken at 0% seller’s commission, even if they’re auctioned in 2027. There are no listing, photography or marketing fees: buyers pay our 22% buyer’s premium (including GST) when your coins sell. Each lot should be expected to realise at least $250, and lower-value coins can be grouped together. How auction fees work · Full selling details

Parking may be available directly in front of the building between 10am and 3pm. If those spaces are taken, there’s generally one-hour street parking in the surrounding streets. Please check local parking signs.

We come to you, anywhere in NSW
Large collections and deceased estates can be heavy, fragile or simply too much to move. We travel across Sydney and regional NSW to assess them where they are, then collect, catalogue and sell them for you.
If you’re an executor, we can take you through each step, including what the collection is likely to be worth and how it will be offered, at no cost to the estate.

Robbie owns Ensleigh Coins, serves on the committee of the Australasian Numismatic Dealers Association (ANDA), is a member of the Stamp and Coin Dealers Association of Australasia, and was a major contributor to a recent edition of Renniks Australian Coin and Banknote Values.

What our consignors say
★★★★★
“I put my coin collection into Copeland Roberts’ auction. I was so pleased with the results and would recommend them to anyone who wants to sell their coins.”
William R · Google review
★★★★★
“Consigned with Copelands three times now. My coins sold for well above the price I was expecting. Not to mention they offer the best rate in the auction market.”
Jeremy E · Google review
★★★★★
“I have used Copeland Roberts since they first started, initially as a purchaser and recently as a consignor. The level of service has impressed me from their very first auction. Communication is first rate, descriptions are honest and thorough, and photography is of a very high standard.”

Selling coins in Sydney: common questions
Can I walk in without an appointment?
Valuations are by appointment only, Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm. Booking ahead means a specialist is free to look at your coins properly when you arrive. Call us on 02 8318 9782 or book online.
How quickly will I get a valuation?
Within 24 hours. Valuations are free and there is no obligation to sell.
Do you come to my home?
Yes. For larger collections and deceased estates, we travel anywhere in NSW to assess the coins where they are, and can collect them for auction.
What does it cost to sell?
Consignments accepted by 31 December 2026 are taken at 0% seller’s commission, even if they’re auctioned in 2027. There are no listing, photography or marketing fees. Buyers pay our 22% buyer’s premium (including GST) when your coins sell. How auction fees work
Are you a coin dealer or an auction house?
We’re a specialist coin auction house. Rather than a coin shop or dealer making you a single cash offer, we offer your coins to competing bidders across Australia and overseas in our monthly auctions, so the market sets the price. Compare selling to a dealer with selling at auction
Where can I park?
Parking may be available directly in front of the building between 10am and 3pm. Otherwise there’s generally one-hour street parking nearby. Please check local signs.
When will I be paid?
Within 30 days of the auction, once buyers have settled, with a full statement for every lot.
