The finest objects brought to you by Eric Toonen
“I hope to use my network to put Catawiki on the map abroad too.”
Collecting is in Eric Toonen’s blood. He has collected everything since childhood: from old toys to glassware and postage stamps. Later he mainly concentrated on collecting coins. He enjoyed travelling around Europe for his collection, to seek out the best pieces and become acquainted with like-minded collectors. As an extra challenge, Eric focused on collecting so-called prison coins. These coins were used as currency within prisons. He is only able to track these coins down by fully tapping into his network. This international network is Eric’s greatest strength. He can fully exploit this as a Catawiki auctioneer in order to establish good contacts as Catawiki expands across Europe. Eric particularly enjoys getting to know other enthusiastic collectors. He also oversees various other auctions. With his collecting background, he has very broad knowledge which allows him to contribute to the high-quality, diversified auctions.
