A new edition of the Dutch catalog for beginning collectors has been published. -Editor

(Guide for Coin Collectors 2.0)

To promote numismatics and support coin collectors, the ‘Guide for Coin Collectors' has been thoroughly updated. This new edition, commissioned by Numismatica Zuidwest-Vlaanderen and compiled by Arnaud Grispen and Laurens Aernout, provides valuable knowledge and practical support for both novice and experienced collectors.

For everybody (e.g. metal detectorists, family members, ...) who are just starting to show an interest in numismatics, this guide serves as an accessible introduction. The aim is to inspire them to build a collection and to give them a better understanding of this fascinating hobby.

The Guide 2.0 includes the following chapters:

  • How and what to collect?
  • Coin quality and pricing
  • Is coin collecting an expensive hobby or even an investment?
  • Auctions and cooperation with professional dealers
  • Most common metals and alloys
  • Essential books and catalogs
  • Tips for cleaning, storing, and securing coins
  • Common numismatic terms and practical tips for group collecting
  • Fun facts

This guide is specifically designed to help novice collectors find their way in the world of numismatics. We hope for the cooperation of everyone active in the numismatic field to support this project.

A total of 100 guides have already been distributed for free in Flanders, aimed specifically at (young) novice collectors.

The guide is A5 in size, has 80 pages, and is available for €7.50. It does not have an ISBN code.
