[QUOTE="Arizona Jack, post: 314784, member: 9308"]Hey gang, being home sick has it's advantages, lots of time. I have almost finished my " virtual grading set", all filed in folders and organized to my system. I have been saving pictures of Lincoln slabbers for many moons. Different dates, grades, and grading services. I file them like this: 1909 VDB, MS-63 Red, folder name inside I have 6 examples in 63 red, 3 by each TPG, pictures saved like this: Pvdb.63RD.P.O1 / Pvdb.63RD.N.R3..... 1st example is 09-VDB. grade and color.PCGS.Obverse coin 1 2nd example is 09-VDB. grade and color.NGC.Reverse coin 3 I have saved as many as 3 coins per grade per service, only NGC and PCGS so far. Each date and mm gets it's own folder within the main "Grading Set" folder. Simple to do, FREE, and once it's done, it's done. I can pull any coin from my dbl row boxes, yank the folder and compare to the pro's. I have done this with circulated grades as well when ever I can find them. My solution to a very large problem with coin collecting, THE BUDGET !! You could even take it a step further, build a "virtual tpye set" or anything like that. Rainy day stuff you know? AntiSlabbers, feel free to shoot this down, but hey, it's still coin collecting, right? Beats playing " Fantasy Football" !!!! LOL:D[/QUOTE]
