Originally founded as an auction house for stamps almost seventy years ago, the Nederlandsche Postzegel- en Muntenveiling began auctioning coins in 1980. The coin auction has grown into an international auction house with an establishment in the centre of Amsterdam.

Expertise
The world of coin collectors is unique. The large scale collecting of coins – both professionally and as a hobby - has grown exponentially. In part due to internet, the hunt for the ultimate, complete, collection has grown into an international business that generates a lot of money.
Collecting requires a lot of expertise. The value of coins can be determined as much by supply and demand as by the era in which an item was coined, its historical significance or its condition.
The auction catalogs
When potential buyers and sellers have their minds set on a coin, they want the image on their screen to be as realistic and detailed as possible. Like leaning over a display case to examine all that beauty as closely as possible. Almost close enough to touch. Pictura turns the auction catalogue into an efficient and precise instrument that allows potential buyers and sellers to quickly assess the offered coins, even providing enough detail to examine their condition.
Every coin can be clicked on for a magnification of both sides, allowing a thorough inspection. The accompanying details include a description, lot number, value and expected proceeds. This is the strength of the website: it makes almost any collection accessible to a large audience; quickly, completely and with precision.
