First Auction of the New Year, 28th January 2012! PDF Print E-mail
Written by Andrew Simnor

Here we are with our first Auction in 2012 with a nice balance of Stamp collections, some substantial, others to pass the winter hours sorting.
Gold and silver ‘bullion’ coin lots reflect the rise in values of both metals over the last year and there are some rare Militaria lots, particularly relating to the Norfolk Regiment.
Some of our Coin collecting clients will be interested to see that we now stock metal detectors and will be forming a Club for the enthusiasts!
We have just purchased the stock of Mike Veissids Books for Collectors – Lodge Hill Books – which are now available in our shop and on-line.
Our next Auction in February features Toys and Games, Rare Books, Documents and Ephemera, so if you are in the attic over the holiday your Britains, Dinky, Diecast or Tin Plate Toys can come with you to our Fairs or to our Valuation Road Shows.
We will travel to view and value larger or more valuable Collections of Stamps, Coins, Medals, Postcards and Cigarette Cards for Auction or Private Treaty Sale.

Our rates are very competitive, so do give us a call or send an e-mail.

Best wishes from us all for the New Year.

David James
