What Is a Coin Appraisal?
A coin appraisal is a formal evaluation of a coin or coin collection’s market value, condition, rarity, and historical significance. It is the critical first step for anyone considering selling, insuring, or passing down a numismatic asset.
At Geneva Coin Buyers, appraisals are conducted by trained professionals who specialize in:
Grading coin condition (using international standards such as NGC/PCGS)
Identifying mint marks, varieties, and die errors
Assessing historical pricing data and recent auction results
Valuing collections based on composition, rarity, and demand
Our appraisals are provided free of charge, with no pressure to sell. We are committed to education and transparency, ensuring you understand your coin’s background and real-world market potential.

Factors That Influence Coin Value
Understanding a coin’s value requires analyzing a complex set of factors. Our appraisers consider the following when assigning a fair market price:
Rarity – How many examples exist? Has supply decreased due to hoarding or melting?
Demand – Is the coin currently sought-after by collectors or investors?
Condition (Grade) – Mint-state (MS) coins command far higher prices than circulated examples.
Authenticity – Verified coins from reputable grading services often sell for premiums.
Metal Content – Gold, silver, and platinum coins have intrinsic bullion value.
Historical Significance – Coins tied to major events, rulers, or nations often gain value.
Market Trends – Coin prices rise and fall based on global economic sentiment and collector enthusiasm.
We combine these factors with proprietary databases, past auction records, and the expertise gained from handling tens of thousands of coins annually across the U.S. and now in Europe.
