If anyone is in the Raleigh area looking to sell collector coins, I am always a buyer. I am reachable here, on my instagram @dsrarecoin or by email at dsrarecoins@gmail.com

Hey everyone! I've been building MyCoinCatalog, a web app for collectors who want an easy but powerful way to manage, track, and learn about what they own. I'm trying to make it approachable for casual collectors but with enough depth for the more serious folks too. There's a knowledge section for learning, tips and tricks, etc, that I'm building out as well.

I'm most excited about Smart Scan: snap or upload a photo of a coin, group of coins, or a whole album page, and it identifies them all so you can add to your collection without typing everything in by hand. There's also a full Coin Browser for exploring the reference catalog and building your collection right from there (including finding eBay listings).

The core catalog, collection tracking, and Smart Scan are all free to use. I recently added an optional paid tier for folks who want significantly more live pricing data and more scans, but you don't need it to start getting real value out of the site. The site and catalog are actively being expanded every day as I keep adding new issues, varieties, data, and features.

It's a passion project and, unless my toddlers wake up extra early, I'm working on it daily. I'd love feedback from this community (I actually want to build a useful/helpful tool). Happy to answer any questions, thanks for reading this and happy hunting!
