The
Alderfer Auction Company Sells Coins & Currency
Coin
collectors may spend an entire lifetime collecting coins, but most
only sell their collection once. And when the day comes to sell
that collection, the process can be confusing and overwhelming.
That is why so many coin collectors choose the Alderfer Auction
Company when selling their coins.
Why
sell your Coins through the Alderfer Auction Company?
Here are 8 very important reasons:
|
|
|
Solid
History of Selling Coins: Since it was established in 1959
by founder Sanford Alderfer, the Alderfer Auction Co. has been
selling coins. We have helped to create many coin collections
over the years. And when the time came to sell many of those
collections, the Alderfer Auction Company was there to help,
and we have a strong history of helping our customers in this
specialty area. |
|
|
|
Coin
Expertise: Coins consigned to our coin auctions are reviewed
by our professional coin consultant who sorts, describes, and
where appropriate, grades your coins. Your consignment is then
added to our Coin Auction Listing, which both appears on our
Web Site, and/or is mailed out to our regular coin customers. |
|
|
|
Reputation
For Integrity: You don't remain in the auction business
for nearly 50 years without a solid reputation. Repeat business,
customer referrals, and positive word of mouth are just some
of our primary sources of new business. Our reputation for integrity
and valued customer relationships mean everything to us. And
we work hard to maintain it. Over the years we have established
a reputation of being fair to both buyers and sellers. When
you contract with the Alderfer Auction Company we can never
guarantee what your merchandise will sell for. But we will guarantee
you this: Your merchandise will be handled with respect. It
will be professionally marketed and promoted in the most cost
effective manner. And you will receive a fair and honest accounting
when the auction is complete, as well as timely payment. |

|
Exposure
and Advertising: Our Coin Specialty Auctions are widely
promoted through a series advertising vehicles including trade
paper and local advertising, auction flyers and brochures, our
primary Alderfer Auction Company web site (www.AlderferAuction.com)
as well as our coin specialty web site (www.AlderferCoinAuctions.com),
mailings to our USPS mailing list, e-mail blasts to our extensive
e-mail address book, and through many other traditional and
non-traditional advertising means, all of which are designed
to attract both our existing coin customer base, as well as
new collectors and dealers. |
|
|
|
Competitive
Bidding Situation: If you are uncertain of what your coin
collection is worth, how can you possibly feel comfortable selling
it for a fixed price? For many collectors, selling their coins
in a competitive bidding situation, in a well-advertised Auction,
before knowledgeable and motivated bidders, is the best way
to establish true market value. |
|
|
|
Professional
Auction Staff: Our professional auctioneers and auction
staff include many of the best people in the auction business,
with more than 200 years of combined experience in the auction
industry. Our professional staff includes numerous past Pennsylvania
Auctioneer Association "Auctioneers of the Year",
"Hall of Fame" members, and current and past Pennsylvania

only a few miles off of the Lansdale Exit of the Pennsylvania
Turnpike's Northeast Extension. We are only 45 minutes north

|
State
of the Art Auction Center: The Alderfer Auction Center is
an innovatively-designed auction center exclusively devoted
to the Auction Method of Selling. The focal point is our large
and flexibly organized main auditorium that is both elegantly
carpeted and well lit. When necessary it can be sub-divided
into smaller areas as may be necessary for more intimate Specialty
Auctions. Our newly renovated gallery and hallway, along with
our outdoor selling area, provide enough square footage that
we usually have four or more auctioneers selling simultaneously.
Conveniences at the Alderfer Auction Center include a café
and a computerized registration system that processes all transactions
instantly and efficiently. Personal property and private collections
are carefully handled after they have been identified with a
unique consignor ID# for tracking on our computerized inventory
system. As you would expect, professional safety and security
measures are in abundance to assure a safe environment for both
our customers and our consigned merchandise. |
While
the benefits of the Auction Method of Selling are numerous, when
you decide to sell at auction, we hope that you will consider the
Alderfer Auction Company. We invite your inquiries and look forward
to assisting you with your personal property, moving, and real estate
needs.
