For coin collectors
A private, local catalogue for your numismatic collection. Design your own labels and print them on your own printer.
ClearBench is a native desktop app built for numismatists who want their collection, and what it's worth, to stay theirs alone. Year, mint, mint mark, slab id, grade, pedigree. No cloud account. No subscription database. No shared list of who owns what.

Three things, done well.
ClearBench isn't trying to be a price guide, an auction tracker, and a cloud sync product all at once. It's a focused desktop app that does the three things numismatists actually need.
Catalogue every coin
Description, year, mint, mint mark, grade, certification number, slab id, pedigree, composition, weight, diameter, acquisition cost, current valuation, where it sits today. Your full numismatic record on your machine.
Design your own labels
Six starting templates from clean to ornate. Twelve bundled fonts. Full control over every field, font size, and alignment. Output a sharp PDF at exact size and print it on your own printer.
Keep it off the cloud
Your coin collection isn't searchable on anyone's website. ClearBench stores everything on your computer. No upload, no telemetry, no analytics on what you own or what it's worth.
Selling coins? Built for that too.
Track stock separately from your personal collection, scope to the active show, record sales as they happen, print label sheets and price tags. Same app, same privacy, no extra purchase. ClearBench is built for how coin dealers actually work.
Track stock at every show
One inventory list across every coin show. Filter to what's on the table, scan a SKU, mark it sold. Slab id, grade, asking price all on the table-side device.
Record sales as they happen
A sale is two clicks: pick the coin, enter the price. ClearBench logs the date, the show, the buyer (optional), and the actual price paid. End-of-show reports show what sold, by show, by series, by margin.
Print price tags + bulk-import
The same label engine prints price tags for every coin on the table. Drop in a CSV from Excel to bulk-load a fresh table; round-trip back any time.
Built for numismatics, not generic cataloguing.
ClearBench knows what a coin actually carries on its label and in its record. The fields are the ones any serious numismatist would expect to see.
Your collection isn't searchable on anyone's database.
A high-value coin collection is exactly the kind of asset you don't want listed somewhere a third party can read or accidentally leak. ClearBench's privacy architecture isn't a marketing line. It's the only sensible default for a numismatic catalogue.
Stored on your device only
Every coin, photo, slab id, and valuation sits on your computer. No upload, no copy on any server, no third-party access, including ours. We literally cannot read your collection.
No analytics on your records
No telemetry on what you catalogue, photograph, or value. We don't track which coins you collect or what you paid for them.
Backups stay yours
Full-catalogue backups are plain .clearbench JSON files you save where you want: your hard drive, an encrypted external, your own cloud. For day-to-day work, export any collection straight out to CSV, Excel, plain text, or a vCard for contacts, then round-trip back in after a bulk edit. The format is documented and stable.
No lock-in
If we vanish tomorrow, your collection is still yours, in a format you can re-import into other tools. The .clearbench backup file is plain JSON that opens in any text editor; the CSV, Excel, and plain-text exports open in tools you already have.
Labels that earn their place beside the coin.
Six bundled templates from clean to ornate, with full control over font, size, alignment, and prefix. All text rendered as SVG paths via opentype.js, pixel-accurate at every zoom and on every printer.

Common questions from coin collectors.
Does it handle NGC and PCGS slab numbers?
+
Yes. Each coin record has a Grading service field (PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG, PMG, CAC, ungraded) and a Certification number field for the slab serial. The grading service is a structured pick, so you can filter by all your PCGS slabs in one click, and the cert number is free text so it accepts any format. Both fields are optional; raw coins skip them entirely.
Can I import from CoinManage, Numista, or a spreadsheet?
+
A direct CoinManage or Numista sync isn't built. Those products store data in their own formats and a live integration would compromise the privacy model. ClearBench imports from CSV instead. Export your existing catalogue to CSV from whatever tool you use today, drop it into ClearBench's per-collection import wizard, and the columns map onto the matching fields. Round-trip out to CSV any time.
How does it handle varieties like Morgan VAMs, die varieties, error coins?
+
The Series and Description fields are free text, so VAM-1A, doubled die obverse, error-rotated-reverse, and other variety detail goes in one of those. The catalogue's free-form Notes field is the right home for longer variety descriptions. We don't ship a built-in VAM database. Adding one means dragging in third-party data, plus the privacy implications of having to update it.
What about coin photos? Where do they live?
+
Drag photos from your computer straight onto a coin: obverse, reverse, slab front, slab back, rotation shots if you want them. iPhone HEIC photos work without any conversion step once they're on your computer. Everything's stored locally; nothing's uploaded anywhere. The first photo on each coin becomes the cover image you see in the catalogue, and you can swap it any time.
Can I track valuations over time?
+
Yes. Each coin has acquisition cost (what you paid), current valuation, valuation date, and a notes field for the source (Greysheet, PCGS Price Guide, dealer estimate, auction comp). The Stats dashboard tracks total cost vs total estimated value across the whole collection, with monthly snapshots so you can see the trend. All numbers are local, so no third party sees what you paid or what your collection's worth.
Does it know about Sheldon grades or just take any text?
+
Grade is a free-text field. It accepts MS-65, AU-58, VF-30, Good, Fine, About Uncirculated, or whatever notation you use. We don't enforce a specific grading vocabulary because it varies between graders, between countries (Sheldon vs European scales), and between you-grading-yourself vs slabbed. Free text keeps the door open for whatever shorthand actually works for your collection.
