Coins & Bullion Appraisals
Numismatic collections, graded coins, and precious metal holdings.
Personal property valuation is not a state-licensed activity. These assignments are performed as desk appraisals from photographs and documentation, which means NextPhase accepts them anywhere in the United States and internationally.
What drives the number
Numismatic value and melt value are different things, and a collection frequently contains both. The report separates them, states the effective date, and identifies which pieces carry a collector premium over metal content.
Commonly appraised
- Graded and slabbed coins
- Raw collections and albums
- Gold and silver bullion
- Currency and paper money
- Foreign and ancient coinage
- Estate accumulations
What we'll need from you
- Photographs of obverse and reverse, and grading labels where present
- Certification numbers for graded coins
- An inventory list for larger holdings
- Approximate weights for bullion
- Purchase records or prior appraisals
Bullion values move daily. Reports state an effective date explicitly, and for volatile holdings we will discuss which date best serves your intended use.

Common questions
Can you appraise items outside Arizona?
Yes — anywhere in the world. Personal property valuation is not a state-licensed activity, and these assignments are performed as desk appraisals from photographs and documentation. Clients across the country and overseas are routine.
Do you have to see the items in person?
Usually not. A well-documented set of photographs, marks, and serial numbers supports a credible conclusion for most personal property. Disputed matters and very high-value single items sometimes warrant inspection, and we will tell you before you commit to anything.
Can you appraise a single item?
Yes. Single-item assignments are common for charitable donation and insurance scheduling. Per-item cost falls sharply as the count rises.
Will the IRS accept the report?
Reports prepared for charitable donation are written to satisfy the qualified appraisal and qualified appraiser requirements under IRS regulations, including everything required for Form 8283. The appraiser declaration is completed and signed as part of the assignment.
