Items That Need a Specialist
A spotter's list of the categories worth a free expert look before anything moves — so an $8,000 collection doesn't sell for $400.
Download this guide (PDF) ↓A coin collection worth $8,000 at a coin dealer might sell for $400 at a general estate sale, because nobody in the room knows what they're looking at. These categories get a specialist's eyes before they move:
- •Firearms — always, regardless of value, through a licensed FFL dealer.
- •Coins and currency.
- •Jewelry and precious metals.
- •Classic and collector vehicles.
- •Industrial and commercial equipment.
- •Antique furniture.
- •Fine art and signed prints.
- •Books and documents.
Free evaluations are common for these categories. The look costs you nothing; skipping it can cost you thousands.
