Many of us have tins of coins lying around the house or inherited from loved ones, often left untouched for years. But did you know they could contain hidden treasures ready to be consigned for auction?
I'll never forget a customer who brought in an assortment of metal detector finds and various items stored in old tobacco tins. Amidst the hundreds of pennies, brooches, and bottle caps, we discovered a stunning Celtic Catuvellauni, Tasciovanus Gold "Hidden Faces" Stater—a beautifully crafted gold coin from pre-Roman Britain. It is believed that Cassivellaunus, the British military leader who resisted Julius Caesar, belonged to the Catuvellauni tribe.
So, if you have a tin of old coins, bring them in, and let’s see what treasures we might uncover. Who knows? Your coins might be perfect for our next auction. Consign today and turn forgotten items into valuable discoveries!
