[QUOTE="underceej, post: 637953, member: 19466"]I've been searching and perusing the various articles on CT, which are proving very useful. I've concluded that the majority seems to use Excel for cataloging their collections. Which I'm fine with doing, as I work in Excel daily (bleck). My question, as a newbie in the collecting world, is specific to U.S. Coins and a good starting point (search) for purchasing. I have my Excel sheets divided into the common denominations for cents, nickels, dimes, halfs, dollars, commemoratives, bullion, sets.... If someone has any recommendations, or willing to send format examples that would be great. I've also searched the site and it seems there are plenty of 'Dealers' on this forum with great content. For a new collector of US Coins does anyone have a recommendation on where to begin searching for information and purchases? I've browesed plenty on ebay, and stopped in some local stores that offer "coins" (not necessarily a "Coin" dealer tho', grrrrrr). For now I'm thinking, at least until I learn more, my interest is collecting a full set of a couple specific years (family related). Thanks, .cj[/QUOTE]
