Price Confirmation (on bullion items)

At the time of placing an order with Certified Rare Coin Auctions to buy or sell, the transaction becomes a binding agreement.

On all Check or Wire transactions, you will be required to secure your purchase by placing 10% of your total purchase on a credit card. This charge is non-refundable and will be deducted from your total purchase. The remainder (90%) is the amount that must be remitted to Certified Rare Coin Auctions via Check or Wire.

Bullion Items

Bullion for investment purposes can be a great way to buy into the precious metals market, HOWEVER ALL INVESTMENTS COME WITH RISKS. There are many factors that affect the price of precious metals. We strongly recommend that you consult your financial expert prior to investing in any of our bullion items. Certified Rare Coin Auctions does not provide any investment advice, and cannot be held liable for any market gains or losses through the purchase or sale of bullion or coin items that we provide.

Graded Coins
Because of the very subjective nature of coin grading, Certified Rare Coin Auctions offers only NGC and PCGS sometimes ANACS certified coins. Both NGC and PCGS are third party grading services that personally guarantee their grades. They are the two most highly respected grading services in the numismatic industry. This allows our customers to buy from us with confidence, knowing they are purchasing a top quality, guaranteed product.

The coin market is volatile and always fluctuating. This can result in a loss or gain of value on any given coin you purchase. Certified Rare Coin Auctions wants to remind buyers that past performance can in no way be used to predict the future value. Buyers should consider these coins strictly as collector coins and any investment advice should be obtained strictly from the buyer’s own financial experts.

Disclaimer: Certified Rare Coin Auctions holds the right to revoke or refuse any and all orders where the confirmed price is incorrect. Incorrect pricing may be due to sudden movements in the precious metals market, pricing errors or computer-related errors. Certified Rare Coin Auctions reserves the right to cancel any and all orders that are identified as suspicious, questionable, fraudulent or pose any other risk to Certified Rare Coin Auctions. regardless of any payment type or method, even after price confirmation.
