Expertise

My specialty is in foreign/world coins from the 18th to 20th centuries. This includes all regular circulation issues, commemorative coinage and non-circulating medallic issues. I also have knowledge in related areas such as errors and exonumia (tokens, medals, etc.). I can answer questions relating to identification, grading, selling, preservation and evaluation of such items. In addition to catalog value, I can give you the practical market value and trends for specific types of coins. I will also take questions regarding counterfeits (both modern and antique) and on how to identify them.
