Coins, silver, and small object appraisals from photos
Signed reports for coins, silver, flatware, and small antiques: $59 records, $99 insurance, $399 tax case review. Photograph hallmarks and weight before polishing.
Photograph every hallmark, stamp, weight, completeness of the set, and condition as found. Do not over-polish silver first. Melt value is a floor, not always the market answer.
Sterling flatware sets: photograph hallmarks, weight, and completeness. Coin identification from photos is not PCGS grading. We are not a bullion desk.
Standard signed report $59. Insurance replacement-value $99 — ask the carrier first. Tax and estate files start at $399 as case review. A full canteen or mixed service is a special-projects quote.
Instant Screener is a $9 unsigned first read. Formal coin slabs still require a grading service. We do not claim USPAP certification.
