What JF Bastok buys in La Hulpe
Ancient coins (Greek, Gaulish, Roman), medieval, early modern and contemporary coins, in gold, silver or bronze. All collections, any quantity, with cash payment.
What determines the value
Valuing a coin rests on the issuing authority, denomination, date and mint, type and legend, then on its preservation and rarity. For gold and silver coins, weight and fineness also set a floor value.

Before the appointment
Never clean a coin: even light cleaning can wipe out most of its value to a collector. Handle coins by the edge and leave them in their holders.
