For those that are interested ... a comparison chart for different SW packages

slightly skewed for the product at this site.

I purchased Coin Manage a couple years ago and while not bad , it has a few quirks to get used to and their support absolutly stinks. I don't recommend unless you are proficient in manually getting things to work.
I use a spread sheet mostly.

I tried pro coin 2008 and lost 90% of my work and said FORGET THAT COIN SW BS!
I use QUATTRO PRO like Excel -



I use first a box for the coin amount & year

ie: $20 1908

next a box for the grade (MS63 etc.)

next a box for PCGS or NGC designation

next a box for the current valve

next a box for a "K" to keep of "S" to sell in future

next a box for the price I paid for it

Next a box for the certification number

Last a box with two word note

ie: Fantastic looking

all THIS fits on one printed page and you just add to it or subtract any coin sold - simple.
