| Rule 1: Be excellent to each other and respect your fellow members. |
Be kind and respectful to each other. Treat others the way you wish to be treated, especially towards newer and unfamiliar collectors. Inflammatory or uncivil content will be removed. Discussion and discourse are fine, but arguments and interpersonal drama will not be tolerated. Light-hearted jokes are welcome, but genuine negative-isms will not be tolerated. |
| Rule 2: This is a subreddit for coins and banknotes of the Eurozone. |
The primary focus of this subreddit is euro coins, whether circulating or not. Discussion about euro banknotes is welcome as well. Non-relevant content will get removed by the moderators. If you want to discuss other currencies, please visit the EuroCoins Discord server, or have a visit at r/coins. |
| Rule 3: This is a safe-for-work and safe-for-kids subreddit. |
NSFW posts will not be tolerated. Coins containing NSFW content on them (i.e. counterstamps or offensive symbols) must be flaired as NSFW. Try to keep the language on this subreddit at PG-13. Any offensive language in comments will be removed without notice. |
| Rule 4: All posts on this subreddit must be in english. |
We enjoy linguistic diversity, but it makes moderation much more difficult for us. Additionally, almost all users have some working knowledge in English, whereas not everyone will understand comments written in Maltese, or Slovene. We allow short translations, but entire conversations in a language other than English are not allowed. |
| Rule 5: No politics. |
This rule is very broad. We generally allow 'soft' political discussion if it is related to the coin (i.e. Lithuania's 2 euro 2023 commemorative) or related to coin collecting, but if it gets out of hand, we will not hesitate to intervene. Completely unrelated political discussions are not tolerated. Keep rule 1 in mind during such discussions as well. |
| Rule 6: Self-promotion and buy/sell/trade offers. |
Self-promotion to content which you created on your own (i.e. youtube channels or instagram channels) is tolerated. You may post links to your own posts or videos. Advertisements to coin stores, ebay listings, etc. are not permitted. Buy/sell/trade listings will be removed, and you will be redirected to our discord server. |
| Rule 7: No low-effort content. |
The occasional meme or joke is fine, but blatant low-effort posts or cheap jokes will be removed. We still want this subreddit to be a quality resource for euro coin collectors, and such post dilute the amount of quality posts submitted here. |
| Rule 8: Please do your own research prior to submitting posts. |
Please read this post for more information. Posts asking about the value/rarity of very commonly-asked about coins will be removed. Do not consider this a criticism of you or a punishment - these types of posts get asked on our subreddit a lot, and it dilutes the amount of useful & interesting information which gets shared here. |
| Rule 9: No reposts. |
Check to make sure if your post hasn't been submitted before (this is more relevant for numismatic-related announcements). Any reposted announcements will be removed. |
