Coins & currency
Numismatic coins, medals and banknotes: denomination, mint, mintage, variety, grade, grading service and certification.
A graded coin's record is its slab: grade, grading service, certification number and the PCGS or NGC number, plus the variety, strike and die details that distinguish one example from another. Raw coins record the same facts without a grade. Catalogue references and mintage (estimated or exact) give the context a dealer expects.

How it is valued
Auction results and dealer quotes for the grade; your estimate for raw coins. Metals content is not spot-priced here — a numismatic coin is not bullion. Every figure is kept in the asset's valuation history with its source and date — see Valuation.
