I am now participating in the Set Registry.

I submitted 29 coins to PCGS for grading last month (including the 16 proof Franklins required for the 1950-1963 Proof Franklins with Major Varieties Registry set) . Earlier this week 8 received grades, including 7 proof Franklins.
With the 7 Franklins graded I started Registry sets for the 1950-1963 Proof Franklins and for the 1950-1963 Proof Franklins with Major Varieties (the other 9 Proof Franklins have not yet been graded but soon will be).
Both are under the name SanctionII. I am at #113 for the 1950-1963 Proof Franklins set and am #62 for the 1950-1963 Proof Franklins with Major Varieties set.
True View photos of the 7 graded coins were taken and eventually will be accessible.
Playing in the Set Registry should be an interesting experience.

Welcome to the party!
Looking for Top Pop Mercury Dime Varieties & High Grade Mercury Dime Toners.
Kevin - Congratulations, and welcome to what some call “the little boys game”, otherwise known as the Registry. I’m also working on that same Basic Franklin Proof Set, but not the one with the major varieties. I’ll have to take a look at the Composition of that set, and then decide if I’m interested in adding the varieties.
Right now I’m only slightly ahead of you in the rankings, at #96. I still need four more to complete the set.

Thanks for your reply Steve.
I looked at your set. It is fantastic.
We can compare our sets after the other 9 Franklins needed to complete the 16 coin set are graded. They were sent in with the 7 coins that were recently graded.

Kevin, thanks for your kind words.
Your setting keeps others from seeing any detail of your set. If by chance that’s unintentional, if you go to your set, in the top section, click the word “Edit” near the bottom of that top section, and then see the question “Allow the public to view set item details?”. By checking that box, that will then allow others to see your individual coin details.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

I took a look at your set through your link. Very nice.
I have left a comment on it for you.

Kennedys are my quest...
Thank you Wayne for your kind words. Yes, once I find coins that I think are nice enough to complete my set, I’ll post it on the main U.S. Coin Forum.

Absolutely beautiful! As I obtain coins for my Proof Franklin set, I strive to obtain coins that look like yours! You’ve set the bar at the top!

Looking good! I look forward to seeing your others pop in and jump you up near the top of the list.

TrueViews and now the Registry?
You rock!
7 more of the 29 coins I submitted have graded.
15 down, 14 to go. The 14 were submitted economy and I expect it will be at least another month before they are graded.
Grades have been posted on the final 14 coins.
I provided details in an update to the separate thread on the US Coin Forums covering my first submission of coins to PCGS for grading.
True View photos of 15 of the 29 coins are now up. These photos can be seen in the separate thread on the US Coin Forums that I posted.
I just started three sets and two are ranked #1 with top pop coins in each set.
