Archives International Auctions

Archives International Auctions is an auction house in River Edge, New Jersey. Its sales feature U.S., Chinese and world banknotes, scripophily (old stock and bond certificates), U.S. colonial and obsolete currency, coins, checks and financial documents, stamps and postal history, and historic and security-printing ephemera. Larger sales run over multiple sessions.

How buying works

• Ways to bid: on the floor, by mail bid sheet, by fax or email ahead of the sale, by phone, or through live internet bidding on the company's site or outside platforms.
• Buyer's premium is added to the hammer price and is higher for live internet bids, and higher again on third-party platforms.
• Payment: winners receive an emailed invoice. Mail bidders pay within three business days of notice, by check or card; late payments carry a monthly charge. New Jersey or New York sales tax applies unless exempt.
• Shipping goes to the address on file, with handling, delivery and insurance added; title passes only after full payment.

Good to know

• Items described incorrectly or found not genuine can be returned within set time limits; lots described with defects are generally excluded.
