tasks
The IFS coordinates the documentation of all coin finds in Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein. To this end, it works closely with the cantonal authorities, which are responsible for the artefacts in their respective areas (according to Art. 724 ZGB ). The focus of the inventory of found coins in Switzerland is mediation and knowledge transfer between specialists and the general public. Another focus is the promotion of young scientists.
