International Auction Galleries has been a leading Australian Auction House since its establishment in 1985. We specialise in High Quality "Boutique" style Coin and Banknote Auctions, that whilst small in size, are big in results, and focuses mainly on selling the Rarest in Numismatics. Our Auction Sales, of which we do 2 specialist sales a year, are seen as one of the yearly Numismatic highlights. As at the end of 2008, we have done 68 Coin Auctions over period of 24 years, and have over $70 Million in sales.

Our Coin and Banknote Sales continue to be one of the Market leaders in Rare and Investment items, constantly setting new Record Prices. We also hold several pricing world records, including the highest price ever foe any Australian Numismatic Item, and the highest Price Achieved at any Numismatic auction in Australia. In 2008 we sold 2 items in consecutive sales for over $1,000,000 each. Our last 5 auctions have broken countless records, and we have sold in excess of $20,000,000 in the last 2 years!!
