The prompt that gets copied
I inherited a collection of [WHAT IT IS, e.g. postage stamps in four albums]. I'll upload photos one page or tray at a time. For each item you can see, add a row to a running catalog with the item number, what it is, the country or maker, the year or era, notable features like condition, marks or printing errors, and how sure you are. Point out any piece that looks unusual and worth showing an expert. Don't give exact values, but tell me which items are worth having appraised. When I say done, give me the full catalog as a table I can paste into a spreadsheet, plus a short summary of the highlights.
Photograph stamps, coins, records or other inherited pieces a page at a time. AI identifies each item, notes the details a collector would want and builds one catalog table to share.
