NUMMUS – Spain’s New Numismatic Society
In March 2024, a new numismatic association was created in Spain with a strong commitment to private collectors as agents of cultural generation and heritage conservation. This new national association aims to promote collecting, research and best practices in Numismatics, Notaphily and Exonumia.

Among its main objectives are to support private collecting as an important part in the conservation and protection of numismatic heritage and to encourage dialogue between institutions, collectors, researchers, dealers and other agents present in the numismatic world.
It also seeks to promote numismatic studies by facilitating access to numismatic collections for independent researchers.
NUMMUS aims to highlight the value of private collecting as a custodian and researcher for two reasons: first, because it was the origin of what is today the science of numismatics; and second, because it generated the current numismatic collections of the world’s great museums.
Its President, Ana Serrano, holds a PhD in Art Theory and Historiographic Methodologies. She is a graduate in Art History and a specialist in Heritage Conservation and Protection. Additionally, she also has extensive experience in the sector as CEO of We are Numismatics and as a cataloguer.
The Nummus Board of Directors is made up of great collectors who combine their professional facets with the promotion of good collecting practices, the development of free access web resources and dissemination of information on social networks.
