Appraisals
Collections may be brought in during my scheduled days. Currently, that is Sunday from 12-5, but my schedule will be changing after September. Appraisals may take a week to complete. However, if it is going to take longer, I will let you know.

Details
I do not offer authentication or appraisals for errors in most cases.
Authentication
Free authentication is available for a few cards or coins. For large quantity authentication, see Simple or Detailed Appraisal.
Simple Appraisal
A simple appraisal is an ideal option if you are not sure what cards or coins are valuable. A rough value will be determined quickly and that can be used to determine what is worth doing a full appraisal on.
Detailed Appraisal
A detailed appraisal will include more than just a rough value. It will include details such as a range that the card or coin has sold for in the past and a more precise assessed value.
For cards, the set the card is from and the date of release will be included.
For coins, the date; mint location; contents (eg. Silver %); and mintage numbers will be included.
Assessment of Condition
Assessment of condition is like grading, but without a numerical grade.
For cards, the condition will be damaged; heavy played; moderate played; light played; near mint; and mint.
For coins, fair; poor; about good; good; very good; fine; very fine; extremely fine; about uncirculated; mint state; brilliant uncirculated; and proof.
Note: A numerical grade may be given, but is no longer guaranteed.
Please note: My appraisals are suited to help individuals sell their cards. I cannot guarantee my appraisals will be accepted by insurance companies as I haven't had to deal with insurance companies.
