I've been using Coin Elite for a long time, but by now something better must be out there? Suggestions? image

    First, let me just say, I love your banana! image

    Second, I have been using Collectors Assistant 2000 for about 2 years or so now. I think it's OK. It is produced and sold by Carlsile Development.

    Been using CoinManage 2002. Very nice, but something of a memory hog if you scan in too many images of your coins. Tells you not only when you bought and sold, the graded or slabbed, but also where you actually keep the thing! Also, it can upgrade the values of common bullion coins on-line.

    Haven't used Coin Elite, can it do any of this?

    Coin Elite does all of that. It is very easy to use. You have to pay yearly for price updates, which I choose not to use. I use my own price listing, works better and is a truer reflection of the value of your collection.

    I too use Coin Elite and find it very satisfactory.

    Second for Coin Assistant 2000. Really versatile, lots of options. Has a major upgrade coming out soon. I checked several of the software options out when I was looking around a couple of years ago, and this was my choice.

    Here's the link.

    I guess I am a little less high-tech in the documentation bit, I just use an Excel spreadsheet.

    I use Coin Elite. As far as pictures you just link them so the program doesn't use much memory.
    Since lots of my coins are DMPLs, toners, Sample Slabs and foreign coins which have no estlablished price the updates really don't apply to me.
    It has a built in image editor.
    The CD also has Currency Elite built in that nobody knows about.
    Always use the back up feature too! Instead of clicking on "delete this coin" I clicked on "delete this set" and lost about 120 coins one time.
    I never could figure out what Printer Reports Designer did though.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.
