Additive (*)
Our Academy content is primarily aimed at beginners, advanced users and anyone who enjoys dealing with modern collector coins or modern numismatics. It is important to emphasize that our texts do not claim to be scientific, historical or social/political complete. For a more comprehensive discussion of these aspects, we recommend appropriate specialist literature, which will enable you to obtain more detailed information depending on your area of interest.
The examples mentioned are based on our personal experiences and are not necessarily universally applicable.
Please also note that the Euro/USD amounts mentioned in our texts reflect the status at the time of creation. The values of individual coins may therefore have increased or decreased depending on the market situation.
