We are delighted to offer you an extremely extensive and valuable selection of items in our 129th international auction, which will take place from the 10th to 14th February 2026. As is usual our stamp selection is very extensive and diverse. In a special catalogue, we present the impressive ‘RADEFELD’  collection with specialised issues from the Sudetenland, including major rarities and unique items. In a special catalogue entitled ‘GERMANY SPECIAL’, selected values and rare items from German philately will be auctioned. These include exquisite items from Baden and Württemberg from the ‘GUTENBERG’ collection, German States rarities including Bavaria’s 1k black in a mint block of four, the Saxony Three as a stunningly beautiful  used item, and the German Empire with mint rarities from the eagles onwards. The German colonies offer the rarest stamps and covers, especially from the German Post Office in China, German South West Africa and Kiautschou. In addition, there are great rarities from the German occupation during World War II in Zara and an outstanding selection of German post-war philately. Gerd Brandenburger’s specialised collection of registered mail slips from GDR self-service post offices is also being sold. The international range of collections and estates is enormously varied, with outstanding country and specialised collections from the classical to the modern era, stocks, covers, large lots in some cases covering several shelves or up to 63 moving boxes. Also a fantastic specialised collection of Zeppelin mail, an enormously fine collection of German States, German colonies, SBZ Special, German Reich and post-war Germany. In the supplementary catalogue you will find a sustantial addition to the already wide selection in the main catalogue.

Friends of numismatics will once again get their money’s worth. We are delighted to be able to offer you one of the most valuable selections in the company’s history in both the main catalogue and supplement. A large number of substantial collections and lots of gold and silver coins will be auctioned. We are also very much looking forward to auctioning one of the best specialised collections of Baden medals in gold and silver, which we have divided into single lots. Rare coins, including major rarities from Great Britain, Austria, Old Germany, German East Africa and Czechoslovakia, will also be offered. In addition, there will be a wide range of banknotes with interesting collections and lots. In the jewellery section, we are able to offer you a very select range of exquisite pieces, all from private collections. We are also offering our most extensive range of model railways to date.

We would be delighted to welcome you in person at the auction. All lots will be auctioned live online, so you can bid from the comfort of your own home. To do so, you will need to register briefly on our homepage or on Philasearch. With the exception of the lots from the liquidation department, all items will also be auctioned in a live auction.

We would like to express our sincere thanks to the many consignors for the trust they have placed in us. Even after 75 years in the auction business, we do not take this for granted. Instead, all our employees work hard every day to serve consignors and buyers correctly and courteously.
