<p>[QUOTE="whopper64, post: 8085537, member: 101364"]After tiring of buying duplicate coins, I decided to use my limited computer skills to create spreadsheets of all my coins. Since I have several hundred, it took me about a month to track them all down, sort them, and then catalogue them. Now i have quite a few different spreadsheets, but only one master locator spreadsheet (by date). Every time i see a coin that interests me, I go to the master locator and can see at a glance if I already have that particular coin. When I do purchase a coin, I enter that info into several sub-sections, and then onto the master locator. The three sub-sections list coins by raw, slabbed, and mint sets. This has saved me many a time when I see an interesting coin and almost buy it before I remember about my master locator. The master locator, of course, indicates where a specific coin is stored, so it will save me time when I need to update or upgrade any coin. So far, so good. I just have to remember to update everything when I do purchase another coin![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
