Important Safety Notice for Collectible Coins in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on General Product Safety (GPSR)

This is a targeted safety notice for the proper and safe use of coins. These are collectible and decorative items; they are not toys nor products intended for everyday circulation. Due to their small size, potentially sharp edges of the cases, and delicate surface finishes, please follow the instructions below.

Basic Safety and Handling Principles

• Keep out of reach of children: There is a risk of swallowing or inhaling small parts; do not put the product in the mouth.
• Handling: Hold coins by the edges, ideally wearing clean cotton or nitrile gloves; do not throw or leave them loose.
• Protective cases: Open capsules and blisters carefully; cracked or sharp parts may cause injury.
• Follow manufacturer’s instructions: Respect recommendations for handling, storage, and product authenticity.

Proper and Safe Use

• Use as intended: Collecting, displaying, and storing; do not use as a toy, jewelry, or a working tool.
• Cleaning and modifications: Do not polish or clean with abrasives or chemicals that may damage the surface; do not drill or alter.
• Safe environment: When displaying, use stable stands and closed display cases away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Storage

• Cleaning: If necessary, gently blow off dust or use a soft brush; avoid solvents and ultrasonic baths unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer.
• Storage: Store in a dry and clean place at a stable temperature; use inert packaging (capsules, albums without PVC and plasticizers) and moisture absorbers.
• Maintenance: Regularly check cases and seals; replace damaged packaging to prevent oxidation and scratching.

Specific Health Warnings

• Allergies and sensitive skin: Alloys may contain nickel, copper, or silver; if skin reaction occurs, limit contact and consult a doctor if necessary.
• Swallowing small parts: If ingestion is suspected, seek urgent medical assistance immediately.

Disposal

• Safe disposal: Hand over metal parts to metal recycling; sort plastic and paper packaging according to local regulations. Do not dispose of in municipal waste if sorting is available.

Incidents and Contact

• In case of an incident (injury, allergic reaction, ingestion of parts), stop using the product immediately. Keep the product and proof of purchase for reporting purposes.
