Payment may be made by personal cheque. It can also be made by Credit Card, but only through the PayPal system. This is both safe and secure, and there are no additional costs to the buyer for paying by this method.
If you simply require a casual, off-the-cuff valuation, this is a service that cannot be provided without seeing the item at first hand, and you would therefore be best advised to approach a local dealer or auction house in your area.
If you have a medal or a collection of medals that you do wish to sell, then your call or e-mail is welcomed, but please note that an offer cannot be made without seeing and examining the item(s). Thank you.

INTRODUCTION
A WARM WELCOME . . . .
A warm welcome to this website, which contains a selection of commemorative and historical medals and medallions, as well as related objects and books. All items are for sale, except those listed on the Archive page. To see a full description of what is available and the price, simply click on Medals & Medallic Art, Coins or Books in the menu on the left-hand side, and once there click on its title or yellow link. The Archive section contains items that have been sold and are no longer available.
BACKGROUND
I have been dealing in commemorative and historical medals and medallions since 1970 and have written a number of books on the subject. These include a catalogue of British medals and their values (1987), which received the Mishler Prize from the Token and Medal Society of America; a work listing the medallic portraits of the Duke of Wellington (1994); and a monograph on the Pingo family of eighteenth-century engravers (1998), which received the Carl W.A. Carlson Award by Medal Collectors of America in 2002.
I am an elected Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries; and a member of the British Art Medal Society and the British Numismatic Society. I also belong to the British Numismatic Trade Association and the International Association of Professional Numismatists.
PAYMENT
Prices on this website are in Sterling, but payment may be made by personal cheque in the currency of your choice. Payment may also be made by Credit Card through PayPal. Simply send an e-mail expressing your wish to pay by this method, listing the item(s) required, and an e-mail will be sent by return, implementing a credit card payment through the PayPal system. There are no additional charges for payment made by this method and it is safe and secure.
Established clients may pay for items up to 30 days after receipt. Clients who would prefer to pay over a period of time - usually between one month and three months - may do so for orders amounting to more than £250.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
All prices are net, and are subject to occasional upward revision. There are no hidden costs or additions, except in the despatch of large or heavy medals and books, to which postage will be added. Orders are usually despatched within two days of receipt of payment. Good title remains with Christopher Eimer until the item or items are paid for in full.
Each piece has been carefully selected as a pleasing example of its kind and is sold with an invoice carrying its full description, which stands as a guarantee of authenticity. There is a ten-day return privilege on each item, which may be exchanged for another, or returned for a full refund.
The images on the web-site are not to scale or in proportion with one another, but each description includes the full diameter or size.
This is an independently operated website without links to any other parties. A policy of privacy is adhered to, and client information and mailing lists are not divulged, distributed or traded in any manner. The site is regularly updated with new acquisitions, and items are removed soon after an order has been received.
All the images on this website are the copyright of Christopher Eimer. Use of them for non-commercial purposes, such as for publication in articles and books, will be granted, but it is always nice to be asked beforehand.
Active clients include museums and other public institutions, as well as private collectors and fellow dealers. I frequently attend auctions and will, if required, view lots for clients and bid on their behalf.
If you do not see what you want, I will be pleased to receive an e-mail of your interests. Should you prefer, you can always reach me on the telephone in London, between the hours of 0900 and 1800 (GMT), Monday to Friday.
Needless to say, I am always actively seeking to buy single pieces or collections and welcome enquiries about items which are for sale.
