PCGS Photograde - FREE - I like it but for the iPhone the pics are just too small even when you zoom in on them. I understand it is better for the iPad.
Inventory Scanner - FREE - Cool Toy! It is a bar code scanner and inventory tracker. You can use it to VERY QUICKLY scan the Interleave 2 of 5 bar code format on the PCGS Slabs. It should read the numbers back to you that are on the slab. Then you can take a picture of the coin/slab, write up a description, type in an internal id, unit cost, unit price, location of the item, comments, etc.
Edited to Add: eBay....duh!

I also use NOTES to keep a list of the varieties I am looking for just to use as a quick reference.
Web browser for PCGS Price Guide, Population Reports, My Set Registry and Collector Universe Message Boards....and other websites.
Anyone else know of any other coin related apps. or want to share how they use an app for coin purposes...on the iPhone?

1) Ideally it would be a part of PCGS, and therefore require a login or some level of authentication.
2) It would also need to be able to resolve the registry status of a coin that was previously registered, and later purchased by another PCGS member.
This data would be invaluable to PCGS, as they could establish the lineages of particular coins, as well as develop a photo image base of individual coins which could be used to reduce the likelihood of of counterfeighting.
Is anyone working on this yet????
On the other hand.... Naaaahhh. Why make it easy or fun to register sets?
