Elsen Reports Almost All Lots Sold at Its Auction 163, Held November 6-8, 2025
On November 12, 2025, the auction house Elsen announced the results of its Auction 163, held on November 6, 7 and 8. It said almost all lots had been sold. Invoices are being prepared, and shipping will begin after that, in order of receipt of payment.
Correction (Oct 13, 2026): We corrected the headline, summary and body to match the source, a short notice reporting that almost all lots were sold and describing the invoicing and shipping process. We removed unsupported passages on lots far exceeding estimates, conspicuous unsold lots, bidding strategies, a link between online bidding and prices, a provenance-driven market analysis, investment criteria and the traits of high-value coins, and made clear that the sale took place in November 2025. The previous headline was "Jean Elsen Auction 163: Provenance-Driven Selection Exposes Collector Priorities."
This article is based on a notice Elsen posted on its website on November 12, 2025.
