Coins auction hero banner

The numismatic calendar is packed as the holiday week unfolds. On December 16, 2025, three online events spotlight coin collections: the Silver City Auctions sale offers a mixed lot of U.S. coins and paper money; Weiss Auctions opens a Coins, Stamps, Currency, and Postcards auction that includes a broad range of world coinage; and Bunte Auction Services launches a timed online auction featuring both modern and historic coins. That same day, Alnwick Auctions presents a live sale with a dedicated coin segment, while The Coin Cabinet’s Modern World Coin Auction concludes, delivering over 260 lots of contemporary global issues.

The momentum continues on December 17, 2025. Midway Auction House’s live auction includes a substantial gold and silver coin block, and Kaufman Realty’s December Coin Auction showcases half‑cents, dollars and silver pieces. Redding Auction Service runs an Antique, Coin & Currency auction, and Peter Francis Auctioneers adds its final weekly sale of the year with a varied coin roster. Premier Auction House’s Collectibles Countdown also lists several prized coin lots, all closing on the same day.

December 18 brings a specialized coin offering from Locke & England’s upcoming auction, while the East Coast Coins Christmas Session 2 on December 19 highlights seasonal demand for rare and commemorative issues. Chorley Auctioneers follows with its Taylor and Sconce sale, featuring a curated coin selection.

The weekend peaks on December 20, 2025, when Coin World Auctions runs an e‑Auction presenting a diverse array of coins, bank notes and medals, and Ritter Auctions hosts a series of Liberty, Missouri coin sales. Grandview Auction House’s Fine Estate auction also includes a notable coin component.

Looking beyond the holidays, Colonial Acres Coins schedules a two‑day Holiday Numismatic Premier Auction on December 26‑27, offering over 1,300 lots of coins, currency and bullion, underscoring the sustained collector interest into the new year. Across these events, trends emerge: a blend of online and live formats, strong representation of both modern circulation issues and historic rarities, and a clear surge in activity as collectors seek holiday gifts and year‑end acquisitions.
