[QUOTE="George Michaels, post: 2141766, member: 74502"]Hi, I am new to these forums, so I will do my best to follow etiquette. I have been collecting US circulated coins for two decades now and it is a great hobby that keeps me coming back every few years on a fresh (gulp) buying binge. I also tend to be a quantity over quality kind of collector and I really like getting a lot of different coins, though this is expensive as I really prefer Silver and Gold over clad. In any case, I have been really dissatisfied with type of info available online at the various sites. It is either a pain in the but to navigate or loaded (and I mean LOADED) with advertisements. So my question was simply "what databases do you guys use to fetch information about coins you are looking at acquiring?" In my frustration I went ahead and built my own database of all circulated US coins and launched it. So, what I would like to know is what other collectors like and don't like about the online databases that already exist so I can improve what I built to be useful to others. Any thoughts would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]
