ABOUT AINCERT MEMBERSHIP
AINCERT membership is open to anyone who shares a genuine interest in numismatics, Indian history and the preservation of monetary heritage. Whether you are a student who has just discovered your first old coin, an experienced collector with decades of expertise or a researcher working on Indian monetary history, AINCERT welcomes you as part of India's growing numismatic community.
AINCERT was founded on the belief that numismatics is not merely a hobby but a serious academic discipline that connects every Indian to four thousand years of their own history. Every coin in circulation today carries the legacy of the Gupta gold dinar, the Mughal rupiya and the punch-marked karshapana. AINCERT exists to ensure that legacy is understood, documented and preserved.
FOUNDER MEMBER
The first and founding member of AINCERT is Ujjwal B U Pant, holding Member ID AINCERT-001. Ujjwal founded AINCERT on 30 April 2026 at the age of twelve, having built a personal collection of over two thousand coins spanning every major period of Indian numismatic history with no family background in the subject and no mentor. He created the ARCHIER Scale and PF-ARCHIER Scale as India's original grading standards and has personally visited Rakhigarhi, India's largest IVC site, to document the archaeological evidence for proto-monetary exchange in ancient India.
WHAT MEMBERSHIP MEANS
AINCERT membership is a formal recognition of your commitment to Indian numismatics and its history. As a member you become part of the institution that is building India's first numismatic sciences campus, supporting the publication of the Ancient Treasures series and contributing to the establishment of the ARCHIER and PF-ARCHIER grading standards as India's national numismatic framework.
Membership connects you to a community of serious collectors and researchers who believe, as AINCERT does, that a coin is not just currency. It is a chapter of history, frozen in metal, waiting to be read.
