Coin Auctions Heat Up Across North America and Europe This Fall
Coins auction hero banner

The first coin events to close are the Surrey and Harris Estate Services sales on October 26, both offering mixed lots that pair modern circulating pieces with specialty issues. The following day, Bidspotter’s Pahrump, Nevada auction and Musick Auction House’s Meridian sale in Idaho each feature regional modern issues and a handful of historic United States pieces, underscoring the continued demand for domestic varieties.

October 28 proves to be a busy day for online and live formats. Atterberry’s Missouri auction, M&M Auctions’ Colorado “Coins & Guns” sale, Alnwick’s UK auction, and the Bontrager Coins & Currency auction (which runs through November 4) all showcase Chinese imperial coins, a growing segment driven by collector interest in Qing dynasty cash and rare mint marks. The same date also sees Musick’s Nampa auction and the Pook & Pook Coins & Jewelry event in the United Kingdom, each highlighting contemporary commemoratives and limited‑edition mint sets.

Closing on October 29, Doyle Auctions in New York presents a Provident Loan Society lot rich in early 20th‑century U.S. silver dollars, while Musick’s second Meridian auction adds more modern U.S. and Canadian circulation pieces.

The early‑November window shifts focus to thematic collections. KUNKER’s Winter Auction in Germany delivers a two‑part series: Catalog 432 offers a Chinese sinologist’s estate of Qing and Republican era coins, and Catalog 433 brings ancient Greek, Roman and Hellenistic strikes to the fore. Both conclude on November 12, the same day Leski Auctions in the United Kingdom wraps its Coins & Banknotes sale, which blends British Victorian issues with contemporary bullion.

Online momentum continues with the Jones & Horan auction (Nov  issues to rare Asian mintages. Noble Numismatics’ Sale 140 in Sydney, ending November 28, caps the month with high‑profile medals and proof patterns.

December brings a seasonal push: Harper Field’s December 3‑4 auction in the United Kingdom features a curated set of British and Commonwealth coins, Warwick & Warwick’s world‑coin sale on December 10 adds a broad international spectrum, and Surrey’s Festive Sale on December 14 rounds out the season with a mix of gold, silver and modern circulating pieces, illustrating the year‑end appetite for both investment‑grade and hobby‑grade coin acquisitions.
