Idea - make problem coins accessible when browsing Coinfacts

I mostly am interested in rare to very rare coins. I don't me 93-S Morgan rare, I mean 2-3 known. It would be cool if we could access them by browsing Coinfacts, instead of the way they are apparently hidden now. I cannot find problem coins without having the direct link. Am I missing something?

Early American Copper, Bust and Seated.

    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.

    Any rare coin with problems. I'd like to be able to see the Trueview's. Many rare early copper pieces and others that are worth a lot. They could be quarantined if necessary, as in clicking another tab to see the problem coins.

    PCGS Auction Prices Realized shows problem coins; it might be a better way to browse?

    It's good if the PCGS coin number is the level at which you are interested.
    If you are interested in rosters of finest known at the die variety level, it might not be as good.

    That would be very useful actually. It would allow you to identify the "upgrades" (e.g. the toned coin that finally straight grades on the 15th try).

    I have punched in details graded coins cert numbers and have seen via TVs that they straight graded before. You can also see with the new “Gold Shield” images, the multiple crackout attempts.
