Authentication & Authenticity

Buy With Confidence

At TreasureHunterCo, we understand that authenticity is one of the most important factors when purchasing coins, paper currency, jewelry, bullion, and historical collectibles. Whether you're a first-time collector or a seasoned numismatist, you deserve confidence in every purchase.

That's why every item we offer undergoes a careful inspection before it is listed for sale.

Our Authentication Process

Each item is individually examined by our professional team using a combination of industry-standard authentication methods, reference materials, and years of collecting experience. Depending on the item, our inspection may include:

• Visual examination under magnification
• Weight and diameter verification (when applicable)
• Metal composition verification when appropriate
• Comparison to known genuine examples
• Date, mint mark, and design verification
• Inspection for signs of alteration, damage, or counterfeit characteristics
• Verification of certification numbers on professionally graded items

Our goal is to accurately identify and describe every item we sell so you can purchase with confidence.

Certified Coins

Some of our coins are professionally graded and authenticated by leading third-party grading services such as:

• PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service)
• NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company)
• ANACS
• ICG

When purchasing certified coins, the certification holder and certification number (when visible) are included in the listing. Buyers can verify these certifications directly through the grading company's official website.

Jewelry, Bullion & Precious Metals

Precious metal items are inspected for identifying marks, metal content, and overall authenticity whenever applicable.

Depending on the item, we may verify:

• Hallmarks
• Purity markings
• Weight
• Dimensions
• Manufacturer markings
• Construction and craftsmanship

Historical Collectibles & Antiques

Many antiques and historical collectibles require extensive research rather than laboratory testing.

Whenever possible, we evaluate:

• Construction methods
• Materials
• Age indicators
• Manufacturer marks
• Historical references
• Provenance when available

Descriptions are written using the best available information and research at the time of listing.

Honest Listings

We believe trust begins with transparency.

That's why we make every effort to:

• Use clear, high-resolution photographs
• Accurately describe condition
• Disclose notable flaws or damage
• Avoid misleading edits or stock images whenever possible
• Answer questions before you purchase

If an item has imperfections, cleaning, scratches, repairs, or other issues, we aim to disclose them in both the photographs and description whenever practical.

Our Authenticity Guarantee

We stand behind the authenticity of every item we sell.

If a reputable third-party grading service or qualified professional determines that an item purchased from TreasureHunterCo is not genuine, please contact us immediately. We will review the documentation and work with you to reach a fair resolution in accordance with our Return & Refund Policy.

Customer satisfaction and integrity are at the core of everything we do.
