Is Numista Worth The Effort?

Looking good, D and T!

Another landmark - I have reached 1,000 coins on Numista! Still a very long way to go before I list my full collection!


At first I found Numista very quirky and not especially user-friendly. I now have my own method of working with it - I search by country and date rather than typing in a denomination, and I untick everything I don't need, including going through the 'Coins' tab. It still often throws up strange things, such as when the date also corresponds to a catalog number: a 2019 gold proof £500 coin came up when I searched 'United Kingdom... 1787' as it was KM#1787!
Something I find frustrating about Numista is that some Proof Sets aren't listed even though individual Proof Coins are - including common ones like the 1953 UK and 1965 British Caribbean Territories sets. Is there an easy way to add a Proof Set or does one have to list each coin separately with all their specifications (which are all already on Numista anyway!) and then press some kind of magic button to create a Proof Set listing? It's a pain having to go through every denomination to add proofs!
