Auction round-up: top realised UK coin sales, 19 October 2026 to 26 October 2026

The biggest verified sales tracked between 19 October 2026 and 26 October 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.

Eleanor Wright

I write the guides, grading reference and blog here at MyCoinage. Been collecting British coins since 2012, started with an inherited bag of pre-decimal silver and that was it, I was hooked. My main focus is 20th-century UK proofs and the Elizabeth II pre-decimal silver, but I spend most of my week reading auction catalogues and new coin submissions across every denomination.

If you spot something in a guide that could be sharper or you have a suggestion for a page we should add, drop me a line through /contact, I read everything that comes in.
