I can endorse the program. Impressive and amenable to variation to suit the individual. Worth the effort of transferring from my present records!

Don't worry folks, I am not a habitual gravedigger.. but being new to the forum etc, I will be trawling through here, trying to learn from you all.. sooo...

Was this any good? Recommended?

I really don't know. I use a custom-built app I designed in FileMaker Pro. Other members use Excel or Access or similar. The question with off-the-peg solutions to something as esoteric as collecting, is "how flexible is it? Will I be able to expand it as & when my needs change?" Something that is perfect for one collector may be near to useless for another.

That is kind of why I was asking... it seems that given all the tangents we tend to take in regards to our hobby, a 'one size fits all' should be possible. A template for each coin, that can be slotted into a main category, sub cat, sub sub cat etc.. something like the way different species are labeled. It looks a mess, but it is an 'orderly' mess and readable/understandable to those who need/want to know.

Well let me tell the variables involved in MY solution:

• 15 different layouts minimum, from main data entry, to printed labels, to values calculator, to history of coin prices, to locations, etc etc

• sets of related tables

• a table for "coins in sets"

• a table to analyse and break down auction lots

• a values calculator that has to determine the correct % increase for a coin that falls 'between grades'

• Spink values input table

• historic (Seaby) values input tables

• a pictures database

• a 'retired coins' table, linked to the main database so I can interrogate it at will

• purchase and sale details

So you see, 'one size fits all' wouldn't fit me!

I was being a bit tongue in cheek there.. I'm an eclectic collector, and so any given 'system' would probably fall down somewhere with me.
