Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 03/24/2012 09:14 am I have been reading about the Moneta Coin Cataloging Software. It sounds like it might be useful. Has anyone here used it or heard anything good or bad about it? http://www.forumancientcoins.com/ca...asp?vpar=524 Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 03/24/2012 12:30 pm I have done some reading on Moneta 2.0, and it appears to have the best feature-set of any package out there. If Moneta has an "Achilles heel", it would be the visual interface; it sorely needs an upgrade for that $90. Hello, 1995. As a tech guy and edu. software developer myself, I like the idea of cataloguing all my coins, particularly if there is a supplemental reference. But databases aren't my strong suit. My cheapo solution has been to post all my coins to my Flickr account, which is easily searchable by keyword--and I can link directly to online references, something which may not be possible with software.

Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 03/24/2012 1:50 pm I was thinking about trying to make some software a few times. Although, I noticed that most people use the web, Excel charts, older applications and the like. Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 03/24/2012 3:32 pm I looked into this awhile back and thought it was too expensive for what it did. I made my own data base with MS Works that does pretty much the same thing and it didn't cost anything. Leaving my limited budget to buy coins with. Report this Post to the Staff
Gil-galad Pillar of the Community United States 2044 Posts	Posted 03/24/2012 4:28 pm If I were to make such a application, I would consider making it free for home use only. Chances are that very few home users would purchase the software. Dealing with software protections is just a waste of time, in my opinion. A license that would state free for home use, commercial users must purchase a license. Of course there is nothing stopping any commercial users from using it for free. Report this Post to the Staff
Eddop Valued Member Netherlands 409 Posts	Posted 03/25/2012 03:22 am I bought the Moneta software in 2004 and I do still using it. For me it works fine and pretty fast I have about 900 coins in the database. $90,- is a lot money but I think you will not have any regrets. Ed Report this Post to the Staff
