I want to start using Excel to keep track of my coin collection but I don't really know where to start with what types of things to chart on it. I know many other people use excel to keep track of their collections what types of things do you all do with it?

If you still need ideas, send me your e-mail and I'll send you some samples. I keep track of just about everything in Excel -- coins, stamps, wooden nickels, casino chips -- even how many and what size of Air-Tites, cardboard holders, and plastic 2x2's I have left.
Happy to help if you're interested.

Hey Ken thanks for that example spreadsheet. I took my current spread sheet and integrated some functions into it to calculate cost\prices\worth of my collection. I actually googled arithmetic functions in Excel..
