Sell Your Coins Queensland
Collection by arrangement.
Throughout Queensland, from Brisbane, Mount Isa and Townsville to everything in between, we arrange collection visits after reviewing your photographs, the collection and its location.
Ensleigh Coins is based in Sydney and buys coin and banknote collections from sellers in Queensland. Send photographs, a brief description and your location so we can assess your collection for purchase and discuss the most suitable next step.
Send photos of your collectionWhat we buy
We acquire a diverse range of coins, including products from the Royal Australian Mint, Perth Mint, and international mints. Including silver proof coins, uncirculated sets, proof sets, gold sets, gold coins and uncirculated mint issued coins. Packaged mint product is of particular interest.
Our interests extend to both silver and gold coins, encompassing pre-decimal Australian coins such as Three-Pence, Six-Pence, Shillings, Florins, and Crowns, as well as gold denominations like Half-Sovereigns and Sovereigns. RAM rolls of any denomination and $2 'c' mintmark coins are always on our radar.
Moreover, we purchase key date coins and high-value numismatic items, alongside a keen interest in banknotes.
What we generally don’t buy
To avoid confusion, here are the coins we do not purchase:
- $2 Coins with "HH" Initials: These are not of interest.
- Circulated Coloured $2 Coins: We do not buy these.
- Post-1966 Circulated Decimal Currency: Including 1c, 2c, 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c, $1, and $2 coins that you may have found in your change.
- International Non-Silver Coins (20th and 21st Centuries): Coins acquired during international travel that are not made of silver.
Key dates, genuine rarities and uncirculated examples can be exceptions. If you are unsure, include them in your photographs.
Send photographs, a brief description and your location. For larger collections, start with overview photographs and a few representative close-ups. You do not need to identify or value every item before contacting us.
We respond to enquiries within 48 hours.
This is a free assessment for potential purchase, not a formal insurance or probate valuation.

Selling a collection in Queensland
Ensleigh Coins is based in Sydney. Collection visits in Queensland are considered for suitable collections and depend on the collection, its location and prior agreement. Start by sending photographs and your location using the enquiry form, and we will discuss whether a visit, an appointment or another arrangement suits your collection.
Our shipping address is:
PO BOX 602, Beecroft, NSW, 2119
Our physical address is:
Shop 2, 27-39 Abercrombie Street, Chippendale, NSW, 2008. Please note appointments are required.
Appointments and collection visits
Interstate collection visits are generally considered for collections valued at $20,000 or more, subject to the collection, location and prior agreement. This is a travel guideline, not a minimum for enquiring. If you’re unsure of your collection’s value, start by sending photographs.
Bart’s Queensland collection: sold through Copeland Roberts
Bart’s graded coin collection from Queensland was handled through Copeland Roberts (opens in a new tab), our associated auction house, with material offered and sold across three auctions.
His consignments comprised 630 lots, including 611 lots entered in a single dedicated graded-coin auction. This illustrates our experience handling sizeable collections and offering material across multiple sales.
Alongside auction consignments through Copeland Roberts, Ensleigh Coins has purchased collections outright from Queensland sellers on numerous occasions. These provide two options for collectors considering a sale, depending on the material and their preferences.
If you have a collection in Brisbane or elsewhere in Queensland, send photographs, a brief description and your location. For graded coins, include clear photographs of the coins and their grading labels.
We can discuss suitability for direct purchase or auction consignment and agree the next steps. Auction consignments are subject to Copeland Roberts’ fees and terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
What photographs should I send?
Use the enquiry form to send photographs, a brief description and your location. For larger collections, start with overview photographs and a few representative close-ups.
Do I need to know what my coins are worth?
No. You do not need to identify or value every item before contacting us. Send photographs first and we will assess whether your collection is suitable for purchase and, where appropriate, make an offer or explain what further information or inspection is needed.
Is this a formal valuation?
Our free assessment is for people considering selling to us. It is an assessment for purchase, rather than a formal insurance or probate valuation.
What if my coins are worn or in poor condition?
Condition matters, but it is not the only factor. Value depends on several things, including rarity and demand. Ordinary circulated coins are generally not of interest, while key dates and genuine rarities can be worth assessing even when worn. If you are unsure, include them in your photographs.
How does payment work?
If you accept our offer, we agree the inspection and handover details and pay by electronic transfer once the purchase is finalised. Payments are made via OSKO, which is not always instantaneous and may take more than 24 hours to process.
Can you arrange a collection visit in Queensland?
Ensleigh Coins is based in Sydney, so any visit in Queensland depends on the collection, its location and prior agreement. As a guide, interstate collection visits are generally $20,000 or more. This is not a minimum for sending an enquiry. Send photographs first and we will let you know whether a visit, an appointment or another arrangement is appropriate.
Can I visit you or post my coins?
Our physical address is Shop 2, 27-39 Abercrombie Street, Chippendale, NSW, 2008, and appointments are required. Our postal address is PO BOX 602, Beecroft, NSW, 2119. Please send photographs first so we can agree the best arrangement before you visit or send anything. For other questions, email contact@ensleighcoins.com.
Terms and Conditions
Our free assessment is for people considering selling to Ensleigh Coins. We may decline to assess or make an offer on material that falls outside our buying interests, has limited resale value or is not being offered for sale. If we cannot assist, we will explain why.
If we make an offer but the collection is found to be either faulty, contains forgeries or fakes or has any other significant defects that were not disclosed during the assessment process, we reserve the right to withdraw our offer. Payment will be made by electronic transfer via OSKO. This, however, may not always be instantaneous and may result in processing times in excess of 24 hours. Unfortunately, this is out of our control.
