Ownetic is a powerful tool to organize your collectible items into well-described and nice-looking collections.

Start with registering - all you need is an email address (to confirm your account) and password.

In the next step, you can choose your name and select preferred categories of collectibles (numismatics, philately, clocks and watches, documents and prints etc.) to personalize your wall. After this quick setup, you can explore the platform to see what other people collect and how they manage their objects. Now it's time to share your collection.:icon_thumright:

1. Create your first collection - click +Add (upper right corner) and choose Collection

2. Now you can add your items and assign them to the created collection. Click +Add item (upper left corner).

Let’s focus on the item details:


  • upload images of the given item,

  • name the object,

  • decide who can see it (everyone or only you),

  • define its status (ready to be published or draft if you want to get back to it before you share it),

  • assign to the chosen collection, category and subcategory,

  • add description,

  • define item parameters,

  • or even write a private note visible only to you.

Click Save in the left upper corner and see how it looks on Ownetic:)

Quick tip - When adding similar items one by one click the Add similar item button in the left upper corner to assign another object to the same collection. You will get the item’s category and parameters duplicated.

Another quick tips for assigning items (colelctibles) to your collection. For your convenience, you can do it in 2 different ways.

1. Assign to collection while adding item. When you add an image, set the title and category/subcategory, you can also assign item to collection by clicking on the empy field under COLLECTION and choose the right collection for your item from dropdown menu. That's the why of assigning of single item.

2. Assign to collection from the collection EDIT view. Go to your collection, choose Edit in the left upper corner and click on Assign to collection. You'll get the right panel with all items you've created. Choose appropriate ones for your collection, click on Assign to collection at the bottom of the panel and then Save the changes. That's the why of assigning multiple items.

Hope it helps you to organize and manage your collections :) See you on Ownetic!

On Ownetic you can use an expanded parameters section to give people who follow your collection a full information about your treasures. As a coin collector, you can fulfill the given parameters:

- catalog number, series, country, mint, date of issue, issuer, mintage, face value,
- composition, finish, diameter, dimensions, weight, condition, edge
- reverse design, obverse design, obverse inscription, reverse inscription

Here is an example of the well-described coin:

And that changes for every category - parameters are tailored to collectors needs. Feel free to let me know if you need anything else to better describe your collectible objects.
