Old banknotes and coins in Ribadesella

Ribadesella, home to the Sella descent and the Tito Bustillo cave, is a fishing town with a rich history of emigration. It is not uncommon to find coins and banknotes from the Americas in its homes.

What appears most often in homes in this area of the east:

  • inherited silver coins
  • banknotes and coins from the Americas, from the "indiano" houses
  • old pesetas in family albums

Two ways to show me your collection

  • I come to your house, free of charge. First, you send me some photos via WhatsApp; I will answer you on the same day, and if there is anything worthwhile, we will meet in Ribadesella, Leces, Collera, or wherever you live, at a time that suits you best. We will look at them together, and if you accept the offer, I will transfer the payment on the spot.
  • You come to my shop in Gijón. I am at Calle Cabrales 77, next to Parque de Begoña, by appointment only. We will look at them calmly, with a magnifying glass and good light, and you will leave with a firm offer.

I prefer to be clear from the beginning: of what comes out of drawers, almost all are pesetas and very common coins. Tons of those are preserved, and with few exceptions, only those in impeccable condition have value. That's why I look at the photos before going. What I do want to see: Banco de España banknotes from the 19th and early 20th centuries, local Civil War banknotes from Asturias, silver, gold, and large collections. I explain this in which peseta banknotes and coins have value.

¿Prefieres venderlo en consignación?

Además de comprártelo, puedo venderlo por ti en consignación. Es la forma de sacar más dinero por tu colección: la ofrezco a los compradores que más pagan por cada pieza, porque llevo diez años construyendo una base de datos de compradores segmentada y sé a quién ofrecer cada billete o moneda.

Yo cobro un porcentaje de la venta, así que cuanto mejor la vendo, más ganas tú. La contrapartida es el tiempo: encontrar al comprador que más paga lleva más que una compra directa. Por eso es ideal si no tienes prisa por vender.
