NUMISMATA Berlin 2026 in Berlin, Germany

NUMISMATA Berlin 2026 is an international numismatics fair where collectors, dealers, auction houses, mints, and everyone who loves “living” artifacts of monetary history come together.

This is not a museum display case, but a real marketplace of rarities and expertise: from ancient coins to modern issues, from banknotes and medals to storage accessories and specialist literature.

The venue is Messe Berlin, Berlin, Germany. Two days when the international community concentrates in one place, and conversations about value sound especially convincing.

Historical facts about NUMISMATA Berlin and the growth of the NUMISMATA brand

The NUMISMATA story began in Munich in 1970: the first fair took place in a small hall of about 400 m², and even then the idea was simple and strong — to give collectors and dealers an honest place to trade and buy.

Berlin became the second major point on the map: organizers note NUMISMATA’s expansion to Berlin in 1999, and in 2009 the Berlin event added a separate brand for philatelists, bringing two collecting passions under one roof.

In December 2024, NUMISMATA’s organization officially passed to a new team (EMZ Messeveranstaltungs UG), which matters for exhibitors and visitors alike: it signals refreshed processes, service, and communication.

Why NUMISMATA Berlin stands out: numbers, scale, atmosphere

NUMISMATA Berlin has a rare quality: it’s highly professional, yet very human. This is a fair where you’re expected to examine items in person, discuss provenance, condition, and history — without any unnecessary theatre.

• 150+ exhibitors

  The 2026 Berlin edition states: more than 150 exhibitors from around the world. For visitors, that means real choice and competitive offers.

• Clear product structure

  Coins, medals, banknotes, accessories, specialist literature — the organizers list categories right on the event page, and it works like a hall-by-hall roadmap.

• A strong “trust effect”

  NUMISMATA positions itself as a reliable, professional, and safe environment for conversations and transactions.

• The scale of the NUMISMATA brand

  Organizers note that NUMISMATA now brings together more than 300 exhibitors and attracts thousands of visitors across two flagship locations — Munich and Berlin.

For the exhibition area of the 2026 Berlin edition, organizers do not publish a separate figure in public materials. But the venue’s strength is well known: Messe Berlin is a large exhibition complex, built for clear routes and comfortable full days on your feet.

6 well-known companies often seen at NUMISMATA fairs

The exhibitor list can change from edition to edition, but NUMISMATA has a circle of notable participants whose presence is confirmed at past Berlin shows or in public company materials connected to NUMISMATA.

• Heimerle + Meule

  A German precious-metals company that invited visitors to NUMISMATA Berlin 2018 at Messe Berlin am Funkturm. For fair audiences, this is a key marker: collecting and metals — and valuation — often go hand in hand.

• MDC Monaco

  An international dealer that listed participation in Numismata Berlin in its show calendar (for example, in 2019), including a specific table number. This is the kind of exhibitor people visit for a “European perspective” and a strong international selection.

• Battenberg Gietl Verlag

  A publishing house focused on numismatics that mentioned attending Numismata Berlin and inviting visitors to its stand. For visitors, it’s a chance to pick up reference books and guides that help a collection grow in quality.

• Leipziger Münzhandlung und Auktion Heidrun Höhn

  An auction and trading house that publicly invited visitors to its stand at Numismata Berlin 2018. Exhibitors like this are valuable because they advise on selling, valuation, and collection building with items in hand, not photos.

• Leuchtturm

  One of the most recognizable brands for collecting accessories. In exhibitor lists for specialist events, the company is also noted as participating at NUMISMATA. In practice, it’s an “island of order” for collectors: albums, holders, capsules, and storage solutions.

• EMZ Messeveranstaltungs UG

  The organizer team that officially took over NUMISMATA from December 2024. For the market, this matters as much as big names: strong organization makes visiting and exhibiting comfortable, which raises the quality of the audience — and the deals.

Product and service categories at NUMISMATA Berlin 2026

Unlike “general” fairs, NUMISMATA Berlin keeps a clear numismatics focus. That’s exactly why people come here for results.

• Coins from different eras, including rare and collectible pieces.
• Medals and tokens, commemorative issues, and themed series.
• Banknotes and paper money.
• Storage and care accessories for collections.
• Specialist literature and reference publications.
• Related collecting fields that traditionally sit next to numismatics (in some editions this may include philately and adjacent collections).

Tips for visitors to NUMISMATA Berlin: how to make two days count

A numismatics fair has its own rhythm: the first hours are the hottest, while closer to closing it’s easier to talk calmly and agree terms.

• Arrive early

  Visitor entry starts at 09:30, and ticket desks open from 08:00. If you’re hunting for a rarity, the morning is your ally.

• Bring a loupe and a short target list

  Two or three “what I’m looking for” points save you from chaos. And a simple loupe turns a chat with a dealer into a professional conversation.

• Take intentional breaks

  The program page mentions rest and networking spots. A mid-day pause helps you return to the tables with fresh eyes.

• Ask the right questions

  Provenance, condition, certificates, return terms, the option of independent appraisal — these questions belong here and are seen as respect for the item.

• If you’re new, start with accessories and literature

  Strong storage basics and an understanding of classifications often save more money than a discount on a first purchase.

• Prepare a clear list of the categories you’ll bring: coins, banknotes, medals, literature, accessories. The clearer your specialization, the easier it is for visitors to find you.
• Plan security and showcases: NUMISMATA emphasizes a professional and safe environment, but responsibility for presenting rare items always starts with the stand.
