Using AI to organize my coin images

ElmerFusterpuck

A couple years ago, I did fiddle with AI and some coding to have something to go through my coin images and rename them in a format that made sense. The first order of business was to have it look through the photos and find the dates, which would be part of the naming format. It failed miserably. Out of 5 coins, it could only find one date - a circulated 1915 Barber half. Even then, it would miss it on another try. Couldn't deal with toners either. Looked like I was stuck with names like IMG_2607.jpg unless I went through each one manually and renamed it.

Fast forward a couple years and I decided to give Claude a try. I gave it (him?) a set of various coin images via upload and asked it to find the dates and mintmarks. Lo and behold, a perfect score! I also asked it to rename the images in a sensible format and it did that too. A couple coins needed a circle crop. After a couple of tweaking prompts, it did that too! I see this as being a huge help for organizing my images and elimination a ton of manual effort. Has anyone else done this for their own images?

Below are a couple of screenshots of the work being done. Claude works on phones and on a desktop.

Cool 😎. Sounds like a great way to get things organized
