Selling coins in Albury
Albury sits on the Murray at the border and functions as one city with its twin across the river, on the main road and rail corridor between the two largest cities in the country. That makes it a logistics town as much as a river one, and goods move through it constantly.
Transport and distribution work brings people in on contracts, and the river and lake nearby mean water equipment gets bought enthusiastically and sold on within a couple of seasons by people who used it less than they planned.
The river is a state border, so agree which side you are meeting on — it is a short drive but an easy misunderstanding. Parking is straightforward and the centre is small enough that any landmark will do.
Confirm which side of the river the item is on before anything else. It is a short drive but a different state, and for anything registered the paperwork is not the same on both banks.
Handing it over in Albury
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.

- Edge knocks and scratches
Working out what yours is worth
- Weigh it if precious metal content is relevant

Getting it ready

Put in the description
- Denomination, country, year and mint mark
- Whether graded and encapsulated by a third party, or ungraded
Denomination, year, country and grade: “1933 George V Penny, Fine” or “Silver Britannia 1oz 2015, Capsule”. Collectors search year and type. For bullion, weight and fineness are the search. Do not invent a grade — describe honestly or say ungraded.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
