“David J. Rose truly understands the meaning of customer service. He earns a 10-star rating for going out of his way to meet my needs. A true professional, he is extremely knowledgeable and was very helpful in explaining the different types of values for an item. The end product he prepared for me—an appraisal—was exceptional. I am including DJR Authentication’s contact information with my estate documents for the future needs of my trustee. Bravo, David! Thank you!“
— Da’LegBone S.
“David Rose at DJR Authentication is an expert at what he does. I have brought coins, jewelry, and art to him for appraisals and each time he has been spot on. A painting I brought was extremely hard to identify but he found the obscure artist and was able to appraise the painting so I could insure it. It’s clear when dealing with him that he is an intelligent and (very hard to find) ethical and honest person, making him a pleasure to deal with. I felt I left with a definitive value of the objects I brought to him. And I was able to sell some items which were gathering dust in my closet at a fair price, which I know because he walked me through the process. Highly recommended for his intelligence, extensive knowledge, and integrity. Five stars!“
— Megan S.

“David was extremely helpful and knowledgeable regarding my questions about a stamp collection that I inherited! He also discussed jewelry and coins that I wanted to research further, and he provided some great points about starting points and things to consider while investigating. I found him to be extremely personable, honest, and well-educated in the items we discussed, and he didn't rush me or talk down to me. I plan to work with him again should I discover something I think is valuable!“

“I met with David Rose to discuss updating an older appraisal on some jewelry for insurance purposes. He explained the process thoroughly and also explained his charges and hourly fees. We reviewed the pieces I brought in and he promised to have the appraisal ready in a week. Everything about our meeting was professionally handled— his office space quiet, his manner friendly and competent. We communicated by email a few times. When I returned to pick up the jewelry and appraisal, he met me on Saturday morning for my convenience and had everything ready. His report was thorough and easy to understand. The report included photographs and descriptions. Highly recommend.“
— Susan H.
“Great experience at DJR. Mr. Rose took the time to explain the qualities of the jewelry I brought in for appraisal and the difference between the types of appraisal options. He went above and beyond in researching the history of one of the settings for a ring I brought in. He is professional and honest. I will continue to bring items for appraisal to him and would heartily recommend his services!“
— Joannah S.
“David is very professional, dependable, and trustworthy. He appraised my engagement ring which is an old family heirloom for insurance purposes. He cleaned and polished the ring, so it sparkles more than ever while he was appraising it, too. He went above and beyond in answering my questions and treating something so precious to me with excellent care. I received a laminated appraisal letter, with a high-quality image of my ring for insurance and met with David in a very nice office. I highly recommend DJR Authentication. He is a man with a true love for his craft.“

“I inherited a large collection of sports memorabilia and collectables from my aunt who passed away. Unsure of what to do with them, my husband and I contacted David at DJR, and made an appointment with him to look at them and help guide us in the best direction to proceed. David was very thorough, going through the collection one piece at a time, and informing us of which items appeared to be authentic and of value, while also showing us which were not, and explaining the reasons why they weren't. Afterwards, he presented us with several options of how we could go forward. When we told him that we live 2 1/2 hours away and just wanted to do the quickest thing possible. David made us a fair and generous offer on the entire collection, which we accepted. He was very upfront, honest, and personable throughout the whole process, and was really a pleasure to work with. My advice for anyone who needs something authenticated or appraised is to let DJR handle it - you will be glad you did. Thanks David!“
— Mary Anne C.
“From my first inquiry to the appraisal of my large collection, DJR made it such a smooth process. I inherited my collection and had no idea what it was worth or how much a professional appraisal could benefit me! DJR came to my home; he was honest, he shared his knowledge, and he was able to deliver a prompt appraisal that left me feeling secure. I will be referring DJR to everyone!“
— Sarah F.
“Working with DJR Authentication (Mr. David Rose) was a very comfortable experience coupled with a true professional who has a broad spectrum of knowledge and training ranging from various gold & silver coins, sports memorabilia to jewelry pieces. Simply put, Mr. Rose has a solid authentication background. Mr. Rose maintains a high degree of integrity and clearly understands the often confusing coin market. I was very much at ease working with DJR as he was reviewing the various selection of coins and dollar bills, as well as pieces of jewelry. I highly recommend DJR Authentication as a place to handle any coin, gold & silver items, jewelry or other rare or collectible items that you may have. DJR Authentication will offer you a very fair deal and I would definitely return to do additional business with Mr. David Rose. A true Five Star.“
— Curt W.
“DJR Authentication did a fantastic job with my collection. David met with me, carefully explained the options for valuing my collection and various ways to meet my goals. In my case, it was to sell my collection for the best price I could get and I chose DJR to do so. The sale was just finalized and I could not have gotten anywhere near the price DJR was able to! I am thrilled with the service. Also, if you have something you think may have value, take advantage of DJR Authentication's online Fast Opinion service. It has to be the least expensive and fastest way to determine if your item has significant value so you can proceed with confidence.“
— Peter K.
“DJR Authentication is the cleanest, most professional place in Mount Pleasant and the Charleston area to sell nearly anything! They can expertly appraise jewelry, collectibles, and pretty much everything! I took an antique in, and they were not only able to tell me all about it and give me an appraisal, but they also offered me a great price! In a nutshell, Pawn Stars comes to Mount Pleasant!“
— Aaron H.
“I reached out to David to discuss the value of my father’s Tobacco baseball card collection. I found him forthright and transparent in ways to liquidate, as well as in grading the collection.

David is very aware of the money involved and does not want us to waste our time and money.“
— Mellicent W.
“I recently purchased a Charleston SC Miller SC-10 1846 W.W. Wilbur Slave Auction Merchant Copper Token from DJR Authentication.
