MintMark is a private catalog for the coins you actually own: every piece with its year, mint mark, grade, variety, photos of both sides, and the story of where it came from. Add a coin the way a collector describes one. Pick the grade from the real 70-point ladder, P-1 to MS-70, with proof strikes shown as PR grades. Not sure where a coin sits? The built-in grading guide walks the whole scale in plain words, from worn-smooth to gem, one thumb at the coin shop. Albums mirror your shelf: binders, folders, boxes, tubes, even the medal cabinet. Each one shows its coin count and its value rolled up. Series trackers count the slots you have filled, and they count them right: three duplicates of the same 1921-D fill one slot, while a mixed year set counts every denomination. When a set completes, MintMark says so. The want list keeps the hunt organized by series, from grail to someday, each with its budget and notes. Found one? Mark it found and MintMark adds it to the catalog with the details prefilled. Every coin carries your acquisition record (date, source, price paid) and your own value note: what you think it is worth and why. Insights add it all up: collection value over time, value by album, grades across the collection, and your top coins. Your numbers, no market feeds.
