Delivery & Postage

Important information: Please note that this is a UK business. In the light of recent tariff impositions by the United States, please be aware that any mail sent to the US will have additional charges placed on them. These tariffs and/or tax levies will depend on the origin country that the coin or artefact was made e.g. Greece or Rome, not the country supplying the goods i.e. UK. Therefore, tariffs will vary and you should be aware of these additional charges before purchase. These levies will not be added to your invoice but made directly to you by your counties' customs authorities, usually by email, and therefore a correct and usable email address will be required before posting; your agreement for dispatch to the US will be requested before leaving our hands but if there is no answer dispatch will not take place and a refund will eventually be made.

The relevant postage will be quoted next to the price, for the UK this is often free. If you are a non-UK customer please contact us about postage. 

We are happy to ship to most countries in the world, we have a flat rate system which covers most situations. However, when large numbers of coins or artefacts are purchased, we may reduce the amount of postage to reflect this and offer you a refund. We will contact you if this happens.

Sometimes the reverse is true, where, because of the nature of the transaction or country to be shipped to, an additional charge will need to be applied. If this happens you will be contacted and the additional charge will be requested, you are of course at liberty to refuse on these occasions and you will be released from your order. Any funds will be refunded and the order voided.

All transactions are completed by PayPal, this is a secure and fair system. You will not be charged an additional fee for your purchase and we cover any fees requested for the sale (unlike many companies)! Due to the versatile nature of the PayPal system prices will be translated to your own currency once you have paid. Our system does not allow for fluctuating currency conversions before purchase. The postage rates in GB Pounds can be seen below. 

The method of shipping will be at our discretion and may include domestic post or a courier method. If you particularly wish to use a courier you should contact us before purchase to arrange the relevant additional charges for your location. A personal payment link will then be sent to you.

No dispatch will be made until full payment has been cleared. If payment has been made by cheque this will also need to clear before dispatch will be made. Personal collection can be arranged at our mutual convenience for FREE. 

A Postage Table for both UK and International Postage (including EU residents) is below but there may be additional charges, you will be contacted about this after purchase, but this will be no more than £10 extra and waived for items over £300. There may also be additional customs charges to be levied by your country, History Coins has no control over this and it will be the responsibility of the customer to make any due payment to their country's revenue authorities.
