Count of coins in my collection and for swap

I noticed the changes in the numista website. So far so good. My only concern is that when I click on a particular coin that I own (including those available for swap) everything is displayed as double since the coins available for swap are counted twice ... For example if I have a Malta 1c coin (x3) and 2 of them are for swap the new data shows that I have 3 coins and an addition 2 for swap thus marking a total of 5 ... I don't know if I explained my issue well and if anyone over here encountered this as well.

Thanks
Same issue here.
And I may add, after switching back to the 'old Numista' the issue replicates over - coins which I own just once AND have on the swap list are now added up as if I had two pieces.
For better understanding please see this example screenshot in the 'new Numista' interface


and the 'old Numista' interface
Hello,

With the older version, the usage of the "Exchange" column was ambiguous. For example, if you have one coin for swap in grade XF, it was intended to enter "1" only in the column "Exchange", but some people used to enter "1" in both columns TB and Exchange. In this case, Numista actually understands you own 2 coins, and this is clearly shown with the new version.

In addition, there is also an issue with the aggregated counts at the top. It's actually not a new issue, as the counters were not affected by the change. It's actually a matter of wording and interpretation: should the first counter count only the coins not for swap or the total amount of coins? I guess we should make a choice and align in both views.
I would like to see first counter used only for coins that are part of my collection and not available for swap. E.g. now it shows that there are 34 Soviet kopecks (Y# 126a) in my collection, although there is just one, and I frankly do not want to have more.
As for grades in swaplist, why can't you use five columns for collection and five for swaps? Like this:

​Hmmm in that case I would have used Numista 'incorrectly' all these years?!

I always entered every coin as 'in my collection' and marked it 'for exchange' if I had several pieces of it.
Going with my example above I have 3 pieces of that coin, one for each marked year (1990, 1991, 2000). The one from 2000 is actually staying in my 'real collection', the other two are up for exchange.

Before the website's update the overview summary as well as the 'coin details summary' showed a total of 3 and 2 (of them) to exchange. Basically for any coin I have one piece of in my 'real collection' and and other piece(s) up for swap the 'Total' used to show one coin more as the 'to exchange'

Long story short, and to answer your question, in my book 'Total' always meant 'all the pieces of a specific coin that I have in my possession' and therefor the first count (Total) should count the total amount of coins.

The problem is, can you 'roll back' to my understanding and are there actually other folks with my kind of logic. If you cannot then I'll apparently have to reorganize my whole collection :/
OK, I see the issue. I will fix that.
I just fixed that.
Taking Palinka83's example, both the coin page and "My coins" now show:
In my collection: 3 - To exchange: 2
Citeer: "Xavier"​I just fixed that.

​Wow, thanks! :D I have also apparently been using Numista "wrong". I input my total amount of coins in the correct grades, then selecting how many of them I want to swap away.

​Excellent. This is really greatly appreciated!

​I agree that this is the PERFECT solution for balance between the old and new sites!
The new format is not good

​I published this suggestion:
Merge new data with old input mode https://en.numista.com/forum/topic67534.html
Wanted & swap list (euro coins & world coins, exonumia and banknotes circulated) https://goo.gl/AQjfKp - I have euro & world CC coins for swap.
