Are you looking for a coin dealer in Villaviciosa? I buy old banknotes and coins, collections, and estates throughout the municipality of Villaviciosa. You have two options: I come to your home for free, after seeing some photos via WhatsApp, or you come to my shop in Gijón, at Calle Cabrales 77.

Fran, from Iberoamericana Banknotes, examining an old banknote with a light before appraising a collection from Villaviciosa

My name is Fran and I run Iberoamericana Banknotes in Gijón. I am an authorized PMG dealer, and the first thing I do is explain what you have; the offer comes after that.

Old banknotes and coins in Villaviciosa

In the "Comarca de la Sidra" (Cider Region), many families have relatives who emigrated to the Americas and returned, or who sent money back from there. That is why it is not unusual to find, alongside pesetas, banknotes and coins from Cuba, Mexico, or Argentina in homes in Villaviciosa. I travel to the town and to any parish in the municipality, from Tazones to Valdediós.

What appears most often in homes in this area of central Asturias:

  • old banknotes kept in books and folders
  • collections of pesetas mounted in albums
  • silver coins from weddings, baptisms, and fairs

How we look at them: at your home or in my shop

  • I come to your home, at no cost. First, you send me some photos via WhatsApp; I will reply the same day, and if there is something worthwhile, we will set up a meeting in Villaviciosa, Tazones, Amandi, or wherever you live, at the time that works best for you. We will look at them together, and if you accept the offer, I will transfer the money on the spot.
  • You come to my shop in Gijón. I am at Calle Cabrales 77, next to Begoña Park, 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 will tell you first of all: most of what is found in homes are very common pesetas and coins, and with a few exceptions, only perfect specimens are worth anything. That is why I ask for photos first. What is definitely worth showing: 19th and early 20th-century Bank of Spain banknotes, local Civil War banknotes in Asturias, silver and gold coins, and large collections. You have more details on 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.
