37,500 coins  / 30.25 days a month  = 1,240 coins a day / 24 hours = 52 coins per hour = 0,9 coin a minute

I have my doubts, if that's physically possible?

I can add 2/minute if i want to.

During 24 hours every single minute? Bravo.

You can add 65535 (2¹⁶) in a fraction of a second.

Of course, you can do that, but back to the planet earth, to add 37,500 different coins in one month is hardly possible.

To add a French 1 euro coin from 1999 and say 37,500 in the amount field is of course possible…… in one minute!

Yes, that would be another story 😂😅

Yes, it is really difficult, but maybe not impossible. I remember the month of August 2018, when I really started using Numista (although I signed up in 2014), I added 32,500 coins to my collection (3,333 coins on July 28 and 35,840 coins on August 26). 

On the weekends I rested from Numista, so it was 32,500 coins in 19 days (1,710 coins a day) and I only did it for 8 hours a day (I try to eat, sleep and have fun from time to time, hehehe) that gives an average of 214 coins introduced every hour (3.5 coins per minute) 

It was crazy 🤪

The four:

21,901 coins • 93 countries • 180 issuers

65,541 coins • 1 countries • 1 issuers

60,004 coins • 2 countries • 2 issuers

12,305 coins • 33 countries • 178 issuers   86 pieces of exonumia • 10 countries • 11 issuers

Two look legitimate.

And two don't…🤣🤣

Is it possible that someone mistakenly added a few thousand coins in error?

Wouldn't they notice it like.. everywhere? Profile, my coins…

There is/was no check on that, it has been seen before. Just enter 1 coin and then huge numbers in the grade boxes!

Is it possible that 37,500 coins  in a month at the rate of 52 coins per hour seems possible if you didn't physically have the coins and just kept clicking the add button?

Sounds like the tagline from X-Files - THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE".

If you are a stacker or a coin shop with many duplicates it is easily possible to add that many but most of the time it is shits for giggles dudes like the one with 150 million+ coins so many that Numista can't display that number in the member list.
