Most importantly, I keep photos online as well as my computer. If the house is robbed and they take the coins, they will likely take the laptop also. Having a record of your coins online is worth a thousand descriptive works. And after working with IT for around 30 years, don't trust it! Make sure that you backup your data to another device. If I could find a suitable database, I would probably use it.[/QUOTE]
