Sources
Prices come from auction houses and auction archives (realised prices) and from specialist dealers (buy-now prices, and items they have marked sold). Counts are authentic single items only — after replicas, lots, miniatures and other non-comparables are removed.

Whole-web discovery
Crawled sources are only the start. Every search also sweeps the open web for the same award on auction and dealer sites that have no dedicated connector. Each find passes the same checks as crawled listings — a real sold or fixed price, a single original award — and is written back into the archive, so the next person searching for it gets it instantly. These appear as Web discovery, credited to the site they came from.
How listings are classified and priced is set out in the methodology.
