Forum Ancient Coins Consignors Say...
I am very pleased with the consignment service provided by Forum Ancient Coins. I have found their service to be dependable, professional, and open over the years. Their "My Consignments" facility means that you can track the status of your consignments and their status from when they are added to the catalog through when they are reserved and sold all the way through to payment. Their fees are completely transparent and you know exactly what you are going to get for you consignments. I have tried several consignment services and Forum is simply the best I have used. -- Martin Griffiths, United Kingdom
I am an ancient coin dealer, and have been a consignor to Forum Ancient Coins for over 5 years. During this time, the bulk of my sales have been through Forum. This includes: Greek and Roman; gold, silver and bronze; with values up to $20,000. Coins are quickly photographed and accurately described. Advice about pricing keeps the items selling at fair market value. I am quite pleased with the Big Picture. -- MK
I have consigned twice with Forum over the last several years and have found the service to be top notch. No complaints. Professional photographs as well as informative write ups of my coins provide perspective buyers with all they need to purchase any of my consignments. I would consider no one else to handle my material. Every aspect is handled very professionally, yet with the right mix of humor and fun. If you are looking for a place to consign your coins, look no further than Forum. Once again, thanks to Joe and all at Forum Ancients for your excellent, high quality service, and most of all, for outstanding results. To say that I am pleased would be an understatement. -- John "Poopius Maximus" Urban
The Forum website is a well-rounded marketplace. Coins are sold, wisdom & commentary are there, too. It has been my pleasure to enjoy Forum on its several levels. Joe Sermarini (proprietor of Forum) is a great guy to deal with and coins that I have consigned have sold well. Forum's service and courtesy are outstanding. -- Richard Pearlman, Richard Pearlman Ancient Coins, El Cerrito, CA

I am more than satisfied with the excellent service I receive when consigning my ancient coins to Forum Ancient Coins. The low consignment fees along with the knowledge and assistance of the staff at Forum provide the perfect outlet to consign or sell your coins. My coins are always up on their website quickly and can be tracked easily under “My Consignments.” If you are going to consign or sell your ancient coins, Forum Ancient Coins is the way to go. -- JMA
I sent 30 coins to Forum as consignments - most of them were priced mid-high level. My expectations were that the majority would be sold within the year, but in fact, 28 of them were sold within less than 3 months! Also, I bought two dozen coins from a European auction house and sent some of them to Forum for examination. Joe condemned seven of them as high quality forgeries, spending hours detecting false dies and casts - all this free of charge. He even convinced the auction house to take them back, even though the coins were out of their warranty. -- UD
