Numismatics
Numismatics—the study and collection of ancient and modern coins, medals, and tokens—is a field that fascinates people because of its close connection to history, economics, and art. Each coin is a silent testament to a bygone era, a small work of art that tells the story of the dynasties, conquests, trade, and cultures that gave rise to it.
At Libert & Associés, a passion for numismatics is paired with cutting-edge expertise and in-depth knowledge of international markets. Whether it’s ancient Greek and Roman coins, medieval coins, or rare modern coins, each sale is an opportunity to showcase unique objects steeped in history.
This specialty encompasses the sale of collections of coins and medals in gold, silver, and other materials, dating from antiquity to the present day, as well as gold coins listed on the stock exchange.
Some notable coins have found buyers under the hammer at Libert & Associés, such as a 1825 coin from the Kingdom of Norway featuring Charles XIV Bernadotte, which sold for €74,240—a symbol of a rare and highly sought-after piece.
Recently, Libert & Associés had the pleasure of presenting two exquisite numismatic collections at auction: one dedicated to ancient coins— Greek, Roman, and Byzantine; the other dedicated to royal and modern coins, which together fetched the remarkable sum of €1,067,000.
Numismatics is more than just a collecting specialty; it is a passion for heritage, a dialogue between the past and the present. Each coin is rigorously appraised, carefully cataloged, and precisely showcased to ensure the trust of collectors and sellers.
“Coins are faithful mirrors of vanished civilizations.”
— Ernest Babelon
