I currently have a collection of around 350 - 400 coins (probably not large by most standards) of all shapes and sizes. Its not particularly valuable probably 10% above face value. Almost all my coins are recent, and circulated, they are ones that I have collected as change from countries around the world on my travels. I was thinking organising them as currently they are just in two albums more or less in the order I got them and a few are in jars as I have run out of pages in the albums.</p><p> </p><p> Ultimately what I would like as something like that works like a duke box where I could put all the coins in 2 x 2 cases and have them in a database so I could sort by age, country of origin, face value, what ever… and eject them if I needed. I am not to concerned about security or quality (Although I hear PVC is bad) of the coins. I know something like this exists for CDs, I use a thing called a Disk Stakka, I wont link it but you can find it with Google if you want to see basically what I’m looking for. It connects to my PC via USB and I have a database of CDs in it. Is there such a thing for coins? If not what do other people use?</p><p> </p><p> Sorry for the long post and I hope its in the right place,</p><p> Thanks all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
