[QUOTE="Pellinore, post: 3494777, member: 74834"]I've been using Easter to do some long overdue work, linking all the collectors' and sellers' tags that I preserved to my numbered coin system. Many of you probably keep the coin with the identifying card or paper bag it came in - but I kept them separate. When a coin comes in, I give it a number (between 1000 and 8000) that places it in an area (for instance Roman Imperial start with 2000, Provincial with 3000, Medieval with 4000; Early Modern coins start with 7000. To put things in perspective: I have only a few dozen coins in the 4000s and just 10 in the 7000s). I make a photo using the same number, weigh and measure the coin, look it up in books, then type out the description in a more or less standard form and put it in a box. Invoices and tags are kept in a large drawer, that I'm looking into rarely. But yesterday I sorted out the tags to put the coin numbers on, 'Pellinore Collection'-wise. If I sell a coin, the tag should go with it to document it. I stacked the tags and put them in the right order into envelopes, hoping to keep up the system in the future.
