斯賓克拍賣行 (Spink and Son),是一家國際拍賣行,在英國、美國、瑞士、香港、新加坡等都有分部。1666年由当铺老板約翰·斯賓克(John Spink)在英國倫敦創立,專門的拍賣及私人洽購郵票、錢幣、獎章、債券、股票、書籍和葡萄酒等珍品。[1]

争议

2012年斯賓克拍賣一枚聲稱屬於前中華民國總統蔣介石的「特壹」青天白日勳章,但中華民國國防部表示蔣介石逝世後,真正的特壹青天白日勳章已經作為大溪陵寢的陪葬品。最後斯賓克流拍收場。[2]

2021年,调查发现该公司和古董贩子道格拉斯·拉奇福德(Douglas Latchford)合作造假文书,以销售非法掠夺来的古董[3][4],拉奇福德后遭起诉,但斯宾克未受罚[5]
