Sneak preview follows below. I’m selling my FE PR Complete Variety Registry Set. The proposed announcement ad is here, subject to a couple minor edits. It will run in greysheet, CAC newsletter, the Numismatist & perhaps a few others. I’ll also start a thread with the title “The Saga of Selling a Rare PCGS Registry Set”.
@alaura22: no auction for this group Mike. I think they’re pretty obscure to most but a small group of collectors. I picked Paradime for their marketing expertise + wealth of contacts. Plus, as a small dealer, they have the ability to formulate a presentation that’s specific & best fits this special set of coins.
@Copperindian
Ken, absolutely the right move. Seeing what happened with the re-sale on some of the Blay collection recently at auction. You never know who will show up and with those coins it's not worth the risk
Good luck
I have updated flyers/ad placements for my FE PR Registry set sale taking place on the Paradime Coins website on September 1st. I’m also starting a thread about the set, including a description & photos of all 9 coins on or about August 1st.
I welcome any comments or questions. PM’s also OK!

That is an impressive set @Copperindian! How long did that set take to build?
Thanks! More than 3 years. I can’t really improve on it much as there’s so few of these available. So, time to sell & reload for something else. The thrill of the hunt never goes away! Besides, I think coins like these should be shared.

And some luck & being in the right place @ the right time! The S-1 was a cherrypick @ ANA by a collector friend of mine. The S-2 was being sold by an antique & collector’s dealer on his Instagram page. The S-3 was sold by Rick Snow after he didn’t get the upgrade to 65 he hoped for. The S-4 was also sold by Eagle Eye; the seller was a generalist. The S-5, S-9 & 1857 were sold by a collector when he retired his set. The SL was involved in a swap with a fellow collector. Finally, the LL was poorly depicted in a HA auction.
But, you’re right & it was still tough to put it together.
