Have you developed a process that you use consistently to structure your CRH process?

I start with a quick view of one coin type, do a quick loup look and separate them into folder by year. While I'm doing my quick look I might put it in a priority file if there is something I want to see with the microscope. Then I move the losers to the lonesome pile.

Next I pull out my favorites from the folders to see if I can still find the anomaly. Next, I put the ones I want to take a closer look at and place them in an acetone (100%).

Next view with microscope, save and associate photo with coin. Typically put them in a flip and include a slip of paper with some description about the coin anomaly.

Then I go to Wexler's, V V and others to study what to look for (and what not to look for) in those specific coins.

Last step. If they are keepers, they go into a 2x2 or a plastic holder. This is probably ask the experts for their opinion. If it worth slabbing, get that done.

So what your Workflow process?

I used to save some in coin tubes, rather than waste a 2X2. I labeled them. Not that I was going to keep them, but for a quick reference. When I moved, they went somewhere?

I'm finding out the hard way that I need a process. I find photos to missing coins! Guess I'll figure something out over time.

If your dealing with computer names for you images, I've changed through the years, always improving as I go. If you need that information I'll elaborate.
