The Swiss Numismatic Society promotes all branches of numismatic science through its publications dealing with classical, medieval and modern coins, paper money and medals and by supporting numismatic publications in general.
The Society was founded in 1879 and is a registered non-profit organization. It is the overall Swiss association of individuals and institutions with an interest in ancient and modern numismatics.
The Society is therefore a member of the Swiss Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences.
