Sixbid opens its Coin Collector's Archive

Anyone who collects coins knows that every coin tells a story. But rarely is that story completely clear. Provenances are often scattered, buried in old catalogues or difficult to find over the decades. This is exactly where Sixbid comes in, taking a step that revolutionises access to the provenance of coins.

The Sixbid Coin Collector’s Archive is now available in a completely new form: All lots from auctions since 2000 can be viewed free of charge. Sixbid is thus opening the doors to a resource that is indispensable for collectors, dealers and researchers alike.

Why is this so important?

• Greater transparency: Instead of laboriously searching through old catalogues, you can now simply take a look at the archive. The auction history of a coin can be accessed in seconds.
• Security when purchasing: A documented provenance protects against doubts about authenticity or origin. This is an invaluable advantage, especially in times when the market is sensitive to legal issues.
• Increased value: A fully documented provenance can significantly increase the market value. Collectors therefore benefit not only in terms of sentiment, but also financially.
• Time savings: Instead of investing hours of research, all it takes is one click – and the relevant information is at your fingertips.

Unique worldwide

Particularly noteworthy: Sixbid is the only numismatic archive worldwide that offers its users this comprehensive access free of charge. While comparable databases are often subject to a fee or only partially accessible, Sixbid makes the entire wealth of information freely available. The platform thus sets new standards for transparency and service in numismatics.

The search function in the Sixbid Coin Collector’s Archive

Good research is essential for numismatic research. The Sixbid Coin Collector’s Archive offers a modern, powerful search function that goes far beyond simple keywords.

Search specifically for denomination, ruler, mint, era, material, auction house or lot number and combine several of these criteria. This allows you to call up, for example, all denarii of an emperor in a specific period.

Whether for documentation, price research or provenance verification: searching the archive is a tool that significantly sharpens the collector’s and researcher’s eye. We have compiled a clear overview of the possibilities offered by the search function in our archive for you here.

The benefits for collectors and researchers

For private collectors, this service means greater security, more knowledge and more enjoyment of their own collections. Those who check the provenance of their coins often discover exciting links to old collections or famous auctions. Stories like these really bring numismatics to life.

For researchers and dealers, it opens up a tool that makes professional work considerably easier: from scientific publications and cataloguing to market analyses, the archive offers a solid, reliable basis.

Conclusion

With the opening of the Coin Collector’s Archive and the addition of the Classical Archive, Sixbid has created a service that is unique in the world. For collectors, it is an invitation to look at their coins with new eyes and bring hidden stories to light.

So if you want to increase the value of your collection, discover its history or simply delve deeper into the world of numismatics, you should take advantage of this offer. Sixbid makes it possible – free of charge, comprehensive and unique.
