# Enroll a Physical Collection

For artists looking to certify a collection of physical works

#### 1. Define collection level metadata

Input the basic collection level information for this project

`Collection Image` - Select an image that will represent your collection on Iterati and will be used by the smart contract for display on all external NFT marketplaces.

`Collection Name` - Select a name that will represent your collection on Iterati and will be used by the smart contract for display on all external NFT marketplaces.

`Collection Symbol` - Provide a short trading symbol that will be used for your artworks should they ever trade on a secondary marketplace.

`Support Editions` - With editions, you are able to certify and sell multiple editions for each artwork. If you would rather offer unique 1/1 pieces, leave this box unchecked. **This cannot be changed after you finish enrolling your collection.**

#### 2. Connect a crypto wallet

Connecting a crypto wallet is an important part of establishing the provenance that makes Iterati Certificates of Authenticity secure and durable.

*Think of your crypto wallet as a highly secure way to generate signatures that **cannot** be forged. We bundle these signatures into all our COA's so anyone can verify that the artwork they are validating came directly from you, the creator.*

{% hint style="info" %}
For creators without a crypto wallet, we recommend downloading [Coinbase Wallet](https://www.coinbase.com/wallet) as a free and user friendly option to get going.
{% endhint %}

#### 3. Generate a signed attestation

This is step establishes unfalsifiable provenance. The attestation you generate here is signed by your crypto wallet and bundled into every COA generated for this collection.

***This step will not create a blockchain transaction or cost you any gas.***
