Buy base metal direct from collectors and independent dealers — nickel, brass and base-metal rounds, bars and tokens. Because sellers price their own inventory, premiums differ on identical items: compare condition, mintage and grading across sellers, then make an offer, bid, or buy now.
Ending soonest in base metal
Base metal pieces — nickel, brass, bronze and clad coinage — are collected for design, history and scarcity rather than melt value.
Grading notes and clear photographs matter far more than weight here. Two pieces of identical metal can be worth very different amounts.
Error coins, tokens and themed rounds change hands in this category cheaply enough to collect seriously without a large budget.
Most collectors begin here before moving into precious metals, and many keep buying long after they have.
Pricing, payment, shipping and disputes
Design, mintage, condition and demand — not metal content. Two pieces of identical weight can be worth very different amounts, so read the grading notes and photographs on each listing carefully.
Yes, on any listing where the seller has enabled offers. Send your offer from the listing page and the seller can accept, decline or counter. Some sellers also run auctions, where you bid instead.
Every order is covered by PeerMetals buyer protection, and funds are only released to the seller after delivery. Each seller shows Metal Points and a rating built from their completed order history, so you can see their track record before you buy.
Shipping is set per seller and shown on every listing before checkout — many offer free shipping, marked with a badge on the card. Buying several items from one seller lets you request combined shipping.
Bank transfer (ACH), card, digital wallets including Link, Cash App and Amazon Pay, and crypto. Bank transfer carries the lowest processing fee — 0.8%, capped at $5 per order — which is why prices are shown at the bank-transfer total.
Open a case from your order in the resolution centre. The seller is notified and PeerMetals support reviews the tracking and photographs, so a payment can be held while it is sorted out rather than released on delivery.
Yes. Add them to your cart and ask the seller about combined shipping — most will merge the parcels into one label, so you pay postage once rather than per item.
