<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5281560, member: 19463"]I get a lot of good out of a couple 'code' fields that allow me to sort coins in the order I want them to printout. The first of these is a two letter 'code' that not only identifies the coin as 'Greek', 'Roman' etc. but breaks those into subgroups. Therefore I have an easy way of sorting My Greek Sicily from my Greek Hellenistic and eight other subgroups that made sense to me. Roman is divided into more (currently 29) subgroups using R0 through RZ but they were custom fit to my collection so there are 7 separate subs for Septimius Severus but the eleven Caesars are lumped into one (Julius fall into Imperatorial for my purposes). The second 'code' is a four digit number of no real importance except that it makes all the coins in that group sort in the order I wish. I code these numbers on the back flap of my envelopes so I can remove and replace coins in order working from the back of the box. The important thing is the system makes sense to me. Your system needs to make sense to you.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
