WINCOIN v3.0 Copyright 1993-1995 Bob Stech - All rights reserved.
What is WINCOIN?
WINCOIN is a Windows application that tracks coin inventory, on
orders, wants and buys. Over 90 category types (ie. Indian
cents), including grading information, history and ability for
notes, are included. Coin Master List for category types
includes all years and varieties for Large Cents to Gold coins
and commemmoratives over 4300 coins in all. Optional import file
for Canadian categories and coins.
WINCOIN features include:
Data bases for Categories (ie. Cents, Nickels) and Category Types
(Buffalo nickels, Jefferson nickels) are provided and are user
modifiable for new issues.
Category Types include grading information, history, and type notes.
Category Types can be resequenced to keep new issues in the proper
order.
Master Coin data bases for each Category Type can include all US coins
and can even be set up to handle foreign coins if desired. All
varieties can be maintained. Newly found varieties of older coins can
be entered and put into their proper position in the master coin
list.
Grading Templates can be set up by Category Type. This allows grading
schemes to be customized to suit the way you like to collect your
coins. Only those grades established for each Category Type are
displayed on the panels and reports. New grades can easily be added
and placed in the proper sequence.
Coin Maintenance panel provides for current inventory as well as On
Orders and Wants. Text can be associated with any coin, if desired.
A FAST ADD feature allows for easy conversion of current inventory.
Reporting capabilities include on line and printed. Current inventory
reports, wants, orders can all be printed. Standard version report
are available on-line and as printed reports. Many options can be set
to customize the reports. Auto want report available.
Report writer available to customize reports and record selection.
Positions for grades which do not exist are blacked-out, so at a
glance you can see which coins you need to complete your collection.
Capability for notes to be entered into the system. Eliminate all
those pieces of paper and have the information at your fingertips.
Prices for coins can be kept in the system. A price report is
available.
This is a shareware program and once registered , all future
updates to the program can be used without additional registration
costs.
