What you will find in Numismatics
The range includes commemorative coins, for example for the 1970 World Cup in Mexico, the Olympic Games in Munich 1972, Barcelona 1992 and Athens 2004, or the silver Josef Bican coin, and historic shares of sports companies such as the Stade-Vélodrome in Nice from 1925, Stadium de Paris or Dunlop. They are joined by sports medals, tickets from the 1955 Spartakiad lottery, a Sokol bill of exchange from 1928 and banknotes.
How to assess a numismatic item
Value depends on the minting, mintage, metal, condition and completeness. For coins, an undamaged surface and the original case with a certificate count; for shares, a complete coupon sheet and striking graphic design.
Frequently asked questions
What do FDC and proof mean? FDC (fleur de coin) denotes a coin in flawless condition, as it left the mint. Proof is a special polished striking for collectors with a mirror background.
Why collect historic shares? Shares of sports companies document business in sport and often feature rich graphics. Shares with their coupons intact are more complete and more valued.
How should coins and medals be stored? In PVC-free capsules or albums, away from moisture. Hold them by the edge, not the face, and do not clean them, as the patina is part of their value.
