Getting started
What is Florin House?
A coin catalogue, a place to track the ones you own, and a marketplace for buying and selling them.

Three things in one place
Florin House is built around a coin catalogue. Every coin has a page recording how many were struck, what collectors pay for it, and which version you are looking at — a circulating coin and its Brilliant Uncirculated twin are different coins with different values.
On top of that catalogue sit three things: a record of the coins you own, communities built around the sets people collect together, and a marketplace for buying and selling.
- Browse — search and filter the catalogue and read any coin page, with no account at all.
- Track — add the coins you own and keep a want list of the ones you are still hunting.
- Buy and sell — trade with other collectors, with your payment held until the coin arrives.
What an account adds
You can browse the whole catalogue signed out. An account is what lets the site remember things for you.
- A collection — the coins you own, and what they are worth together. Already keep one on Numista or CoinSnap? Import it.
- A want list, so you are told when a coin you are after is listed for sale.
- Communities you can join, and a public profile if you want one.
- Buying and selling on the marketplace.
- Your daily game streaks.
Your collection is public unless you switch it off: the Public Collection setting is under Privacy & Display in your profile settings. Switch it off and other collectors can no longer see what you own.
Where to go next
Most people arrive with one of three questions. Follow whichever is yours:
- “What is this coin, and is it worth anything?” — Finding a coin, then rarity scores and values.
- “How do I keep track of what I have?” — Tracking your collection.
- “How do I buy or sell safely?” — Buying a coin safely and Fees explained.
