Royal & Political Memorabilia Valuations
Royal and political memorabilia has been collected since sovereignty became akin to riches, power and celebrity. The individual behind the monarch or the government is attached an iconic status which lends to the value of the memorabilia. Rare clothing, coins, notes, statues, and/or plates are all seen as collectibles which reflect a country's economic and political history and can be sold on the market.
Recent public events in the British Monarchy led to a saturation in the market of mass-produced royal memorabilia, such as commemorative plates from the royal wedding. For this reason, extremely rare or unique pieces of royal memorabilia do very well at auction.
