This allows the RIMAU 1925 team to verify orders properly, reconcile payments, review partner submissions where applicable, and ensure that serial numbers are issued accurately and fairly.

Requests may be submitted, but allocation is subject to availability, edition category, reserved numbers, and approval by the RIMAU 1925 team.

Certain special numbers, including premium, symbolic, golden, repeating, or milestone numbers, may require an additional contribution or may be offered separately through private placement, invitation, auction, or special approval.

A preferred number is only confirmed once expressly approved in writing by the RIMAU 1925 team.

Certain serial numbers may be reserved as special numbers and will not be part of the general sequential allocation. These may include repeating numbers, milestone numbers, culturally significant numbers, or other numbers determined by the RIMAU 1925 team.

Special serial numbers may be offered separately through private placement, invitation, auction, institutional allocation, or other official allocation methods.
