Terms of use

Last updated November 7, 2026

Numismatist is run by Rec-Safe (RECSAFE), a Washington corporation ("we" and "us"). By using Numismatist, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use it.

What Numismatist is

Numismatist keeps a coin collection's records: each coin (or banknote, token, medal, or bullion) with what it is, its grade and certificate, its metal and melt value, what it cost and from whom, what it's worth over time, where it's kept, and its photos and papers; sets to complete and a want list; dealers and shows; dates to keep; and reports for insurance, a theft, sales, and an estate. A collection can be shared with the people its owner chooses. It's free to use. We may change it, add to it, or stop it at any time.

Your account

Give true information, keep your sign-in to yourself (your email, your passkeys, and any password or PIN), and tell us at info@rec-safe.com if you think someone else has used it. You're responsible for what's done with your account. A collection is yours. You can share it with up to 6 people, to look at it or to help keep it; they see everything in it, and nothing in any collection is ever public.

What you put on Numismatist

What you add (your collection's records, photos, and papers) stays yours. You give us permission to store it, show it to the people it's meant for, and copy it as needed to run Numismatist (in backups, for example). Only add what you have the right to share, and nothing that's unlawful, hateful, harassing, private to someone else, or meant to mislead. We may remove anything that breaks these terms.

Using it fairly

Please don't break the law with Numismatist, try to get into anyone else's account or our servers, overload it or copy it in bulk with automated tools, send spam, or use it to harm anyone. We may suspend or end the use of anyone who does.

Values are your own

The values, melt prices, and gains Numismatist shows come from what you enter. It isn't an appraisal, or financial, tax, investment, or legal advice. Have valuable coins appraised by someone qualified, and ask an accountant how a sale is taxed where you live.

Your records

You're responsible for what you keep in Numismatist. Keep your own copy of anything important: the download in Settings has everything but the photos and papers.

Fair use of space

Each file can be up to 20 MB. Please keep to what you need for your own collection.

No guarantees

We work to keep Numismatist running and accurate, but it's provided as it is, without any warranty: it may have mistakes, and it may be unavailable at times.

Limits on our responsibility

As far as the law allows, Rec-Safe isn't responsible for any indirect loss or damage from using Numismatist (or not being able to), and our total responsibility for any claim is limited to what you paid us for Numismatist in the 12 months before it, or $50 if you paid nothing. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

The law that applies

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington and the federal laws of the United States, and any dispute goes to the courts of Washington. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under the consumer-protection laws where you live.

Changes and questions

We may update these terms; the date at the top says when we last did, and using Numismatist after a change means you accept it. Our privacy policy says what we keep and why. Questions? Email info@rec-safe.com.
