This is an optional field. Enter the coin catalog number
from your favorite coin catalog.

Note that judging a coin's condition can be anywhere betw-
een a science and a medieval art. It's your coin album
so use the method your best at.
This menu lets you select a condition of which all coins
of that condition will be printed. For example, select
"Uncirculated" to get all Uncirculated Coins.
Press <ESCAPE> to abort.
Enter the coin's issuing country. I recommend if you use
abbreviations, use them all the time. Do not mix abbrevia-
tions and regular country names. For countries that do not
exist today, enter the country name as it existed then.
Food for thought: Consistency is the key to simpilicity.
Enter the date the coin was acquired. Use the format
MM/DD/YY; for example, to enter January 15, 1989, enter
1/15/89 or 01/15/89.
Enter the date the stamp was added to your collection in the
form MM/DD/YY; for example, say you bought a stamp on
September 12,1989, this would be entered as 9/12/89.
Welcome to the WORLD COIN ALBUM! This program organizes your coin collection
in an easy to use electronic database. You may enter thousands of coins
and yet locate any coin's data instantly. Customized versions can be
programmed for a fee. Press <F1> anywhere in the program for help. Please
read COIN.DOC as it gives information on how to use the program. This
program was written for the beginner to advanced coin collector who yearns
to better organize his/her coin collection. You don't have to know any
programming or be a computer whiz with a PhD. That is not who the program
was written for. It is for the computer user in office or home that uses
the computer as a tool. Overall, I have tried to make a very complicated
program into a simple, easy to use interface. If you have any questions
feel free to write to me at:

COIN COUNTRY LIST
The coin country list is a "table" listing the coin's country and other
information for quick viewing. Below is a list of keys you may use:
to add a coin to your collection (add a record)
to delete a coin from your collection (delete a record)
Enter
to change the information for that coin (edit a record)
to quit and return to DOS
to print coins on condition of coins (eg. all Fine Coins)
to print all your coins on the printer (device=LPT1)
to print your coins of one country use the cursor keys to
place the highlite bar on the country you want to print
Note: this is available only in the registered version
to enter a new password
Cursor keys,PgUp,PgDn
used to navigate in the list
Ctrl PgUp,Ctrl PgDn
go to beginning or end of list
The COUNTRY LOCATOR allows you to type one or more letters of the country
and the highlite bar in the coin country list will position itself on the
country. For example, if you wanted to go to Germany, type 'G' or "Ge",etc.
You must have added the coin previously to use this feature. If the
country is not in the list table then the country locator will go to the
closest country alphabetically. This feature is especially helpful when you
have thousands of coins in your collection and saves you from using the
cursor and PgDn keys.
Enter an optional weight of the coin.
