Shatrughan Bhai’s CNG is an extremely well organized Auction House, drawing our countries numismatic heritage treasures together, cataloguing, and offering them to numismatic enthusiast like me via their well conducted Auctions. Their catalogues contain perfect detailing of the items on sale, are very thorough almost scholarly, very accurate and honestly described coins which should be preserved as a reference guide by all budding numismatic enthusiasts.
My association with CNG has been long enough and till date Shatrughan Bhai has ensured that our relationship is more homelier than being just professional. Excellent catalogues, varied coin collections, great online bidding process, quick mailing and shipping, very responsive and customer-service oriented staff are some of the key elements of this premier Auction House which has earned my loyalty as a client since 2015.
CNG is indeed an epitome of what a coin gallery should be like and I think it is just a matter of time that CNG goes Global and conducts Auctions abroad. Kudos to Shatrughan Bhai & Team CNG.

I had been to the exhibition on August 7, 2022 for a day for the promotion of new chapter IBNS Hindustan Chapter.
I was overwhelmed by the hospitality by the organising team including Mr. Shatrughan. They offered me an empty stall to be utilised all day for the promotion of the new chapter and also gave the mike to make regular announcements. No fees was charged.
On regular intervals they would check out with us if any further assistance needed.
The hospitality as well as the organising skills of the compelte team was at a high standard. Salute to them.

"Classical Numismatics Gallery is by far the most trusted auction house in India. I have been buying or recommending close acquaintances to buy and rely on them from the past 7-8yrs. They're progressive and that's proven by the quality they are able to acquire and deliver through an international bidding platform - icollector. I would like to thank Shatrughan ji and his team for leading Indian Numismatics to new heights and hope others alike follow in his footsteps for the betterment of this most loved hobby."

As a customer and admirer of the Classical Numismatic Gallery for last 5 years. I have purchased and sold items through Shatrughan Saravagi’s Auction house and I must be thankful to Shatrughanand support staff for the exclusive experience that has been provided beyond expectation to me. The excellent presentation of catalogues and the whole auction process is extremely well organized and managed. Apart from quality of coins and notes, delivery & collection are simply the very best I can ever imagine. Just to give example, my bided items were delivered next day to Indore by personal courier from Ahmedabad and my items for sell were picked from Bombay at the agreed day and time. All these actions inspire tremendous confidence and trust which is so important in collection of the numismatic items. At various times, when I need any help for checking authenticity of the coin or notes, I started depending upon Shutaghan expertise and connections and he has helped me beyond expectation. Without any doubt, customer Service has reached to a level which is difficult to be ever matched by other auction houses in India. I wish I could buy every item on my wish list from Classical Numismatics. Also I want to give my respect and thanks to all support staff which are the backbone of such a respectable name in numismatics in India. I wish Classical Numismatic Gallery all the best wishes in every aspect of business.

This binds collectors like me to your auction group. Wishing you all the best

Classical Numismatic Gallery (CNG) has, in a relatively very short time frame, established itself as a premier auction house. The quality of catalogues, the wide choice of material in each auction, the user-friendly website with great image resolutions and the ease of communicating puts CNG in the league of the best auction houses in the world. In some cases, we have experienced that they even surpass some of the best known 'brands'. This is purely attributable to the sheer professionalism and customer focus of Shri Shatrughan Saravagi, which is further strengthened by the able team he has put in place. It has always been a pleasure to interact with Shatru ji and the CNG staff. We wish them all the best for all the auctions to come!

I have participated in several auctions through your firm over the past 4 years. I am very much a novice investor in the world of numismatics. My participation was motivated by an opportunity to learn about Indian history and if I could get me a fair return over a long term, so much the better. My experience in dealing with your firm has been most pleasant. You offer a broad range of coins of interest to all collectors, those on a relatively small budget and those with deep pockets. Your catalogues are excellent and the auction process is extremely well organised. Delivery is very punctual, always. All these inspire tremendous confidence in participating through you. Keep up your high standards of excellent products and auction process. Wish your firm much success.

Dear Mr. Saravagi, I have been participating in the auctions conducted by Classical Numismatic Gallery for nearly two years. I have always participated by way of online bidding. Being a doctor, it is not possible for me to take time off and visit the coin expos. I have always had an excellent experience with your auctions. The variety of coins and notes available is large. The catalogues are excellent and I have been always satisfied with the interaction on phone. Your packaging and shipping has been very good. Overall, I can say that Classical Numismatic Gallery today is at the forefront of of this field and among the top players.

"Shatrughan Saravagi Bhai all the dedicated collectors of ancient Indian coinage desperately wait for your auction catalog to be uploaded. It comes in a long interval however the coins displayed are world class & totally unbeatable. The condition of the coins is marvelous & when we receive the actual coins in hand the condition is far better than what grade is mentioned on the catalog. This speaks a lot about the auctioneer & the way the coins are portrayed. The photographs are of high quality & the pages used are of good grade. Kudos for your upcoming auction. I'm all excited to see the ancient coins section for the best rarities in the highest grade. Cheers to you & your team for the wonderful efforts you guys have put, in making your auction house one of the leading auction houses of India. The future of your auction house is indeed very bright.

IMO, Classical Numismatic Gallery is a place that you can "TRUST" for your business: Buy or Sell your coin collections. I am very glad to do the business with CNG. I was very much delighted when I browsed the website. It is been Artfully put together all information & Very easy accessible. This is a great company with an excellent great people, Great services with a more over of 100% dedication of all people. Cataloging printing & making are matching International standards. Needless to say that it is been a labor of Love with a hundreds & thousands of coins sharp photographs & excellent screenshots with a full descriptions of the coins. Conditions of the coins grading mentioned in the catalog are almost far better than mentioned & far better than Expected, Which is really a great Plus point of CNG. As noted, Grading of coin is a main subjective. Quality of coins in auctions are "Supersonic Superb", Excellent & Exceptional. IMO, Auctioneers, who sell coins need to know the current & right market values of the coins, But with CNG, they are very fair & have reasonable values compared to the market values. I deeply appreciate for their Hard work. I would highly recommend to anyone needing this specialized, careful, fairly providing this services & your attention to detail & pleasantness to engage with. I wish a very BEST success to CNG, As the way they are organizing & conducting the Auctions.

"Magnificent" "Marvelous" "Superb" are just few epithets that describe the quality of your auctions. The combination of great rarities as well as items most collectors can afford is a blend seen often in your auctions. The auction archives are a virtual museum, a treasure trove, a visual delight and a must reference for any lover of Indian Numismatics. Indeed, in the quest for excellence there is no finish line and you seem to redefine excellence at every auction. I wish you good luck and great success in promoting our rich heritage though your auctions. God bless.

Each auction Classical Numismatic Gallery sets a new milestone. The auctions held by Classical Numismatic Gallery set a benchmark which can't ever be leveled by any other auction house in India. CNG gives collectors an opportunity to the collectors to enrich their collection at a Reasonable Price(very important). By selling originals at a reasonable price, by far Classical Numismatic auctions is the only auction house that sincerely aims to introduce the hobby of notaphily and numismatics amongst the mass. Thanks a ton for being genuine, honest, candid, fair and customer-oriented in a business where goodwill counts.

Today I received your wonderful CNG Catalogue for Auction # 20 to be held in Mumbai on 12 April 2015. Was really impressed by the wide variety of 1000+ items being put up and catering for all sections of Numismatics, right from Ancient India, Mughal Period, the Princely States, the Dutch, French, Portuguese & British India along with Post Independence India. Also impressive were the Medals Section and the Banknote Section which have some very good items. All in all, an amazing collection of sale items. I wish you the very best for this forthcoming Auction Sale, and I am sure it will be a Grand Success.
