Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

First Communion medals were traditionally commissioned in France to mark a Catholic childs sacred rite of passage. These commemorative tokens feature religious iconography such as chalices, host symbols, or saints to record the devotional event.

High-grade precious metals, particularly 18ct yellow gold and rose gold, were standard for commemorative medals produced in France. Precision die-stamping techniques allowed intricate relief designs and multi-tone gold accents.

Authentic French gold pieces typically feature official French hallmark stamps, such as the eagle head mark indicating 18ct gold. Look for crisp die-engraved lettering, solid construction, and natural surface wear around the bale.

While primarily worn as a pendant on a chain, small antique religious medals can be displayed in a velvet jewellery box, suspended inside a glass cloche, or framed in a shadow box within a bedroom or dressing room.

Clean gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or mild soapy warm water if necessary. Avoid abrasive polishes or chemical dips to preserve original surface details and historical patina.
