The biggest verified sales tracked between 24 August 2026 and 31 August 2026.
Every figure here is a realised auction price (the actual hammer plus fees, or the eBay sold price), not a dealer asking price. Sources include eBay UK, Spink, Baldwin's, Noonans, Heritage and London Coin Auctions. We verify each row before it enters the database.

What this means for you
If you collect any of the above, the latest realised price tracks live on each coin's catalogue page under Market Data by Grade. We add new realised sales as they're verified and the per-grade summary updates accordingly.

How we verify each price
Every realised price entering the MyCoinage database goes through a manual review queue. Asking prices, active listings and unverified third-party reposts are filtered out before the figure makes it onto a coin page. This is why our published values match what coins actually sell for, not what dealers list them at.
This round-up is generated automatically each Monday from the past week's verified sales. If a sale you reported isn't here, it's either still in the verification queue, sold below our minimum threshold for inclusion, or the coin already had a more recent qualifying sale that week.
