Alas, .xls is not allowed as upload format.
But I have it if there is a way to post it.
I was pleased with my little spreadsheet, even had it calculate out the actual troy oz of silver in the face value of 90% coin.


You could copy it to a Google doc and share it. This might be a lot of work though since some of your formulas would have to be redone. Google docs spreadsheet isn't 100% compatible with Excel.


Good idea, thanks for it!

Well, I took inventory of what I had and made it into a document! :thumbup:

Now I have a much better idea of what I need....

I have developed a spreadsheet that accounts for when i bought the item, what price paid, description, % of silver/gold/platinum and sell price if i decide to flip. Works out pretty well for me. Specially at year end where I can do a sort of inventory.
