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.

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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
