Coin Photo Prep Desk

A photo packet, not a change to the coin.

Pair an obverse and reverse for each coin, with an optional edge or holder image. A contact sheet helps keep the record together; missing views stay explicit. This workspace does not identify coins, assign grades, remove marks or estimate value.

What the metadata check means

The local parser looks for selected location, device, capture-date and author/credit tags in the file supplied by your browser. A phone's file picker may already have converted it. Tags not found does not mean anonymous: labels, reflections and recognizable backgrounds can disclose information. A parsing error is shown as not checked.

Exported PNGs are newly encoded from browser-decoded pixels, then checked again for the selected metadata categories. This does not certify a forensic privacy audit. Browser orientation, color management and resizing may change pixels. Preserve originals and review outgoing copies. Only use photos you own or may reuse; keep any required attribution in the visible credit field and manifest.

Keep the original evidence

Photos and drafts remain in this tab unless you deliberately download them. Closing or reloading loses local photos. Worksheet JSON and optional account saves preserve labels/layout only; they do not upload, back up or restore images. HEIC, RAW, GIF, SVG and PDF are not supported.

For written descriptions, use Coin Listing Generator. Keep research with Coin Passport. Guidance checked October31,2026: Apple location metadata controls, Google's visible-location warning and browser image encoding.
