Chan & Scott Auction House

About Chan & Scott Auction House Chan & Scott Auction House is an international auction firm specializing in philately, postal history, numismatics, and Asian antiques. Our core expertise lies in the rich historical landscape of China and the foreign post offices and colonial powers that once operated throughout Asia. From rare stamps and early postal documents to imperial porcelain and coins, we curate auctions with a strong emphasis on historical significance, authenticity, and cultural value. We operate globally, conducting regular online auctions in both the United States and China, offering collectors seamless digital access to our fully transparent catalogs. Our buyers and consignors come from across Asia, Europe, and the Americas, drawn by our reputation for expertise, integrity, and carefully selected material.
