Closer and closer

coppercoins · Site Admin

We are drawing very near an opening date for the coppercoins.com online store. We are currently working through the transaction processing programming - the store itself, including the inventory search, display, and shopping cart features is complete - all that's left is committing to a transaction and transferring funds...should take a couple of weeks to finish, then we will be ready to test it out - then open it to the public.

When it is finished there will be over 500 items ready to purchase, with another 5,000-6,000 in-stock ready to add to the system. I am hoping for an eventual inventory size of 10,000 items by this time next year - I figure it will take a year just to enter that much stuff.

There will be obverse and reverse photos of all $5+ coins. The variety coins will use the same rule for obverse/reverse photos, but every variety coin will use the stock photos from the site to show the nature of the variety.

It should be pretty exciting when it opens - that's just about the only thing I have had any time to work on for the site, so once it's up and running, I will be able to focus attention on other areas as well.
