By species How these numbers are made

The ten species that come up most often, with how many have sold and the median price.

About these numbers

Prices are what the buyer paid, including the auction house's premium. The line on the chart is the median of the trailing twelve months, redrawn every night. A window holding fewer than 5 sales gets no point at all, which is why the line breaks rather than bridging a quiet stretch.

Only sold lots are counted. Coverage is Guyette & Deeter and Copley; private sales, shows and other houses aren't in this data.
