Items on sale include several Flint gold pieces, his NME Awards, custom-made luxury bedding, two-handed swords, his record collection, motorcycle skins and various jewelery.
As well as reflecting Flint's musical career, the items also represent a broader range of interests - including his love for motocross and the arts.
