<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sholom, post: 3409529, member: 17753&quot;]Huh.&nbsp; OK.&nbsp; So, I started collecting as a kid.&nbsp; Then dropped it for a number of decades, then started again and moved my stuff to Dansco albums.&nbsp; Then dropped it for another decade.&nbsp; And just recently I ran into my old albums, and have some interest again.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, two things:</p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; It just never occurred to me to use anything beyond spreadsheets to keep track of my coins (which is a bit of a pain).&nbsp; (After all, using spreedsheets was &quot;ahead of it&#039;s time&quot; back when I used them!).&nbsp;&nbsp; So, let me ask you: what software do you use?&nbsp; (I&#039;m not quite so interested in values -- only about 2% to 5% of my coins are worth enough to be interesting -- but having it would be somewhat useful as I purchase a few coins here and there to fill up some holes).&nbsp; (FYI: I only collect US Coins - no currency, no foreign.&nbsp; Websurfing, I found coinmanage, I like the features of automatically downloading various things, and ebay links, etc.)</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; The last time I took a serious look at my coins was in 2009, 10 years ago.&nbsp; For kicks, on some of my coins, I used the numismaster web site to see how prices have been for the past 10 years.&nbsp; For the most part: flat.&nbsp; I.e., my collection is probably worth the same as it was 10 years ago.&nbsp; So, like it is for most people: I find it fun, but, as an investment, I could have done better putting into a saving account in the bank down the street.&nbsp; (I&#039;m sure the story is different for folks who deal with high-dollar premium stuff -- but that&#039;s not me)</p><p><br /></p><p>My two cents . . .[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
