What Types of Coins Do We Appraise in North Carolina?

Our appraisers evaluate a broad spectrum of coins and numismatic items, from everyday circulated pieces to rare investment-grade collectibles. North Carolina's sales tax exemption on investment coins and metal bullion, in effect since 2017 under G.S. 105-164.13(69), has increased demand for accurate appraisals that verify exempt status and support high-value transfers. We appraise:

  • United States rare coins, including early American coinage and key-date issues
  • Gold and silver bullion coins, such as American Eagles and Maple Leafs
  • Foreign and world coins spanning multiple centuries and countries
  • Proof and mint sets issued by the U.S. Mint
  • Ancient and medieval coins from Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods
  • Confederate and Civil War-era coinage
  • Commemorative coins and limited-edition issues
  • Error coins and die varieties with numismatic significance
  • Tokens, medals, and medallions with collectible or historical value
  • Coin collections assembled for estate, investment, or hobby purposes

Whether your coins were inherited, purchased as investments, or accumulated over decades as a hobby, our appraisers have the expertise to assess their condition, authenticity, and market value accurately. We apply recognized grading standards and current market data to produce reports that hold up in legal, tax, and insurance contexts.

5-Star Valuation Services, Loved by Hundreds

AppraiseItNow did an outstanding job appraising my 1998 Bobcat Skid Steer and circa 2010 Yuchai Crawler Dozer. We could not locate a serial number on the dozer, and there were no online sales available, but they were still able to develop an accurate appraisal using known specifications for my dozer compared to other comparable make and model dozers. They diligently researched both equipment items and provided well-documented reports.

I needed an IRS-qualified appraisal for an unusual and costly piece of medical equipment. AppraiseItNow was able to provide me exactly what I needed on a timely basis. The personnel at the company are very friendly and helpful. I would definitely use them again.

The estate appraisal for our car and rugs was handled quickly and efficiently. The process was smooth and hassle-free.

We had an excellent experience working with AppraiseItNow. From start to finish, their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough. They took the time to understand our specific needs and delivered a detailed and accurate appraisal that was well organized and easy to understand. Communication was clear and timely throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer our questions and provided thoughtful explanations whenever we needed more clarity. Their attention to detail and strong market knowledge gave us complete confidence in the final report. It’s clear that they take pride in their work and genuinely care about providing high-quality service. We would absolutely recommend AppraiseItNow to any business or property owner looking for a reliable and professional appraisal company. Five stars all the way.

AppraiseItNow Inc. is the best company I was lucky to find by accident. I was looking for someone to appraise cabinets for a donation to charity. I asked for multiple referrals, called multiple appraisal services, etc., and no one could help me. I found AppraiseItNow and from the moment I started working with them, they were wonderful! Joe guided me on what I needed to send him, what needed to be done and stayed in touch with me the entire time. Their customer service is OUTSTANDING and a welcome surprise in today’s world where good customer service is an anomaly! They returned an appraisal in a timely manner, it was clear, concise, cost-effective and exactly what I needed. They followed up with me multiple times to ensure that I received it and everything was OK. My CPA is also thrilled to have them as an accredited appraisal service he can use for other clients. I rarely leave reviews, but I could not pass giving them 5 stars and I’d give 10 if possible! THANK YOU JOE AND ALL AT APPRAISEITNOW!!👊🏼

AppraiseItNow's service was expeditious and professional. The report was thorough with plenty of examples and rationale for the valuations. Good service comes at a cost, but for me it was well worth it. Highly recommended!

Who prepares the appraisal report?

AppraiseItNow works with qualified appraisers who have relevant numismatic expertise and training in USPAP standards. Each report is reviewed for accuracy, completeness, and compliance before delivery.

Are there any North Carolina-specific regulations for Coins appraisals?

North Carolina does not have state-specific licensing requirements for coin appraisers. The North Carolina Appraisal Board under Chapter 93E governs only real estate appraisers, and numismatic coins are explicitly exempt from the precious metals dealer licensing rules under Chapter 66 Article 45. Appraisers rely on national standards from organizations like NGC and PCGS for credibility.

Do you prepare appraisals for IRS Form 8283 (Noncash Charitable Contributions)?

Yes, we prepare qualified appraisals that meet IRS requirements for noncash charitable donations over $5,000, including the documentation needed to complete Form 8283, Section B. Our reports establish fair market value in accordance with federal guidelines.

Do you buy, sell, or broker Coins?

No, AppraiseItNow is an independent appraisal firm and does not buy, sell, or broker coins. This independence ensures our valuations are objective and free from any conflict of interest.

What information do you need to get started?

To begin, we typically need clear photographs of each coin (obverse, reverse, and edge where relevant), any known provenance or documentation, and the purpose of the appraisal. You can submit this information through our online intake process.

Will my appraisal be accepted by the IRS, insurers, or courts in North Carolina?

Yes, our USPAP-compliant appraisal reports are prepared to meet the standards required by the IRS, insurance companies, and North Carolina courts. They are suitable for estate tax filings, charitable donation deductions, divorce proceedings, and probate matters.

Are there sales tax considerations for coins in North Carolina?

North Carolina exempts investment coins, metal bullion, and non-coin currency from sales and use tax under G.S. 105-164.13(69), effective since July 1, 2017. A professional appraisal helps document fair market value and confirm exempt status during sales or inheritance transfers.

What credentials should I look for in a North Carolina coin appraiser?

Because no state licensing exists for coin appraisers, look for appraisers with credentials from nationally recognized organizations such as the NGC, PCGS, or the American Numismatic Association (ANA). USPAP training is also a strong indicator of professional practice.

How does the coin grading process factor into an appraisal?

Grading is central to determining a coin's value, with NGC and PCGS using a 1 to 70 scale that assesses authenticity, condition, mintage, and market demand. AppraiseItNow incorporates recognized grading standards into our appraisal reports to support accurate and defensible valuations.

What is the difference between appraising numismatic coins and bullion in North Carolina?

Numismatic coins, medals, tokens, and art ingots are treated differently from raw bullion under North Carolina law, as they are excluded from precious metals dealer licensing and record-keeping requirements. Investment coins also qualify for sales tax exemption, making appraisals especially important for confirming their status during transfers or estate settlements.
