<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2038444, member: 19065&quot;]I don&#039;t always show off the cert number and sort of prefer not to have it included. Sometimes I see the cert number in auctioned coins sold on eBay or posted on other sights obscured. I think some people have reasons of protecting their collections by not sharing the full cert number in pictures. I understand and respect that decision.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for searching image files, you could also include the cert number in your file name without visually having to open and view the image file to keep track of them. I have also worked on Excel sheets with a column containing various cert numbers that are linked to image files on my computer. Clicking on the box with a cert number, opens an image file for review/reference.</p><p><br /></p><p>If we go an extra step, I suppose we might also try keeping a scanable tracking system using the barcodes on inserts or set up our own QR code, for example. A coin image could contain a unique QR code and be scanned by a smart phone or other reader and pull up a webpage displaying one&#039;s inventory and coin images or the coins registry set page or a TPGs cert verification page for that coin. I think there are lots of great ways we collectors have yet to track, share and reference our coins, but I&#039;m always pleased and enjoy looking at those which someone has taken more time to present professionally as yours have been.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
