Collection auction hero banner

From early November through early December, a wave of online and live events is drawing collectors to a wide spectrum of collections. The first deadline arrives with a timed online sale of modern and contemporary works, closing on the ninth, followed by a high‑profile online sale of coins and collectibles that ends on the tenth. A day later, a surplus‑equipment auction wraps up, while a multi‑day toys and hobby sale runs through the twentieth, offering everything from model trains to vintage games.

Mid‑month, a live event showcases a private assortment of medals and historic military pieces, and a separate auction of vintage vehicles and plant machinery concludes on the second of the month. By the third week, a series of estate sales present furniture, decorative objects and rare books, while a dedicated coin and medal collection closes on the twenty‑fourth. The final week features a major European collection of fine glass and ceramics, a winter exhibition of Asian objects, and a high‑value stamp and postal history sale that runs into early December.

Throughout the month, specialty auctions highlight niche interests such as vintage toys, classic motorcycles, historic firearms, and regional memorabilia, while several regional houses present curated selections of textiles, ceramics and decorative objects. Across the board, bidders are seeing a surge in equipment‑focused sales, from lighting and rigging gear to industrial tools, alongside cultural collections of medals, medals, and historic documents.

The overall trend points to a growing appetite for both functional items and curated historical pieces, with many sellers opting for online formats that allow global participation. Prospective buyers are encouraged to visit the respective auction houses’ websites for catalogues, preview times and registration details.
