At Recovered Relics, coins are our passion—but we’re more than just a coin company. Each coin is treated with the same reverence we give to all historical relics—as a precious window into the past.

Our coins are responsibly sourced from reputable global collections or directly from archaeological excavations. Upon arrival, each one undergoes careful assessment and restoration, tailored to its condition:

• Collection Coins are meticulously cleaned, removing old varnishes or outdated treatments. They’re then preserved with museum-grade wax (Renaissance Wax) to prevent oxidation.

• Excavated Coins receive gentle restoration to enhance identification while preserving authenticity. Severely degraded coins are stabilized using specialized conservation techniques.

Before being offered for sale, every coin is assessed, researched, and catalogued. Each is housed in a custom protective display case to shield it from environmental damage and ensure long-term preservation.

Every purchase includes a Certificate of Authenticity and a story booklet detailing your coin’s journey, the era it came from, and the historical world in which it once circulated. Our research team works diligently to uncover each coin’s unique story—bringing your investment to life.

At Recovered Relics, we don’t just sell coins—we preserve history, allowing you to hold the past in your hands.

Project Phoenix

 

One of our most ambitious and revered undertakings is Project Phoenix. Through this initiative, we have unearthed coins buried for thousands of years, painstakingly restoring these invisible faces from history. Using the traditional tools of forensic archaeology, we breathe new life into these artifacts, preserving their legacy and making them accessible to collectors, historians, and enthusiasts around the world.

At Recovered Relics, we believe in the power of history to inform and inspire. Our mission is to curate and restore these ancient wonders, ensuring they can be appreciated by future generations. Join us on this journey through time, and discover the beauty and mystery of antiquity with Recovered Relics.

 

​​Australia's Largest Collection of Coins of the Antiquities

 

Over the past three years, we have immersed ourselves in Spain, forging close partnerships with Europe’s premier auction houses and renowned dealers specializing in Roman, French, Spanish, and Selcian coins and jewelry from antiquity. This dedicated journey has allowed us to curate an exceptional collection of over 2,400 pieces, each chosen for its unique historical significance and intrinsic beauty.

​

Our collection is a testament to centuries of craftsmanship and the enduring legacy of ancient civilizations. Many coins have undergone only light cleaning to preserve their authentic patina and retain the genuine marks of history. For items more vulnerable to the ravages of bronze disease and oxidation, we have opted to sell them in a carefully cleaned and preserved state, ensuring both their aesthetic appeal and structural integrity for future generations.

Each piece in our collection not only represents a monetary unit of a bygone era but also serves as a tangible connection to the past—a legacy meticulously preserved for those who appreciate the rich tapestry of history woven into every coin and artifact.
