Selling coins in Cuttack
Cuttack is an old commercial and craft city known for its silver filigree work, a tradition that has run for centuries. Fine metalwork and traditional jewellery appear here in a way they do not elsewhere in the region.
The craft trade keeps silver and metalwork circulating locally. The city sits between rivers and the monsoon is heavy, so how something was stored is a fair and necessary question.
The old commercial areas are dense and congested and best reached on foot or by two-wheeler. The newer parts of the city drive easily enough.
On silver filigree, check the solder joints and the fine wire in daylight. Repairs are common on older pieces and are much easier to see in person than in a photograph.
Cuttack, in Odisha, has around 660,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Bhubaneswar, Rourkela and Brahmapur are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

Photograph
- Obverse and reverse of each significant coin, filling the frame, in even light
- The date and any mint mark, close enough to read
Put in the description
- Denomination, country, year and mint mark
- Metal and weight, and fineness for bullion
Small and light but easily lost and worth stealing, so use a tracked, signed service and pack in a rigid envelope or small box. Never send loose coins in a padded bag.
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.
