How does the "My Values" section work?

I can't figure this section out under my profile. Why would it tell me that a 0% of my collection is worth $0? No schitt Sherlock I took math.

Then it goes on to tell me that a random percentage of my collection is worth less than the precious metals value..
.i.e 69% of your collection is worth $1,000 yet 69% of just the precious metals is worth $1500... as an example. Maybe the section is broke or there is some setting on not aware of? Any help appreciated.

If you do not attach grades, then it does not give a value for that coin. For example, if you gave none of your coins grades, then it would give values for 0% of them (since it cannot valuate all of them)

Hmmmm....ok... as far as I know I grade every coin I document... Is this what you were referring to?

​Well, the grade you give your coon also has to correspond to a Numista value. However, this could also just be another bug.

If you enter in a buying value for each coin then you will see that amount added to my values.

What I find weird is for some coins.

1. Some grades have prices under the face or melt value of a coin like 48 cents for a $1 coin.

2. Some coins have grade pricing, where a higher grade has a lower cost and how this comes about I don't know.

3. The only pricing that we can do is what we add ourselves, so if we pick up a $10 silver coin for 50 cents will that affect its value.

I always try to grade and price each coin myself, unless its from a bulk lot that cost a few dollars - but any better coin I buy online like say a Halfcrown or a Florin will have the price I paid for it.

N8t a paid feature, simply add a new coin to your collection, and enter a buying value at the same time that you select grade, qty, etc.

you can, of course, edit these values for existingcoins as well.
