I had a photo album, then I retired the set, then for some reason PCGS deleted my album.
I will have to watch that and make sure to download the album prior to removing any coins. Thanks.
I've mostly moved away from the official registry sets recently, I like the digital albums/showcases as a way to help organize different parts of my collection.

Those are really neat. Is it easy to build custom sets? I like the idea of not needing 3 Gold $1's in a set.
Thanks! Super easy. Go into Set Registry, then click here:

and then it's just a matter of picking your "Theme", adding coins, and ordering them how you wish.

The last few months the albums for several collectors failed to load the TrueViews. Photos would load some times but not other times. I have a couple of small (12 or fewer coins) sets where the albums do load all the photos, but on larger sets of 100 coins or more, over half of the photos were missing. Even manually uploading and saving the photos to the album wouldn’t work. I finally gave up. Happy yours is working…….maybe the problem has been fixed.
I’ve noticed the same thing in my Box of “20” in the last few months.
@PCGSPhoto - for world coins - the relative sizing is often incorrect. Is there a way to update the size of the coins? Thanks!
Sorry, I'm not involved with the software for these digital albums so I'm not sure how to correct the issue.
Can someone show me how to add the photo to the album? When I click pick obverse photo it will pick the TV with both sides . How can I just pick the Obverse or Reverse photo? thanks.

You have to enlarge it and move it over . On my iPad and iPhone with touchscreen I just do it with two fingers (touch the image with 2 fingers and pinch together makes the image smaller, spread 2 fingers apart and gets bigger. Just drag left or right first though to move the actual coin image to the center of the album slot. I have no idea how to do it with a PC, I almost never use a regular PC at home (those antiques I only still use at work).

I have both obverse and Reverse on my PC but can't upload to it.
Now this come to my second question: for those coins that did not have TV but have uploaded photo on the set (or even has photo on PCGS Certification site). How do I insert those photos to the album? When I tried to pick the image, it told me no image but there is image on the set or on the certification site.

Great looking album @breakdown Congratulations on acquiring amazing coins.
Thank you, pcgscacgold. That middle hole, Capped Bust small bust, small size (1829-34), is a doozy to fill. You, I and many others do not have that coin yet.

So I created an album (I think), uploaded the 22 coins I wanted in it and then clicked auto-fill with trueview images and nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Nevermind - I think I figured it out.
Tell the rest of us. The digital albums have an on going problem where the photos fail to either load or stay. This is especially true if the album consists of several pages.

Excellent @lermish I had not heard of Showcase before and that makes perfect sense. More fun to be had.

@Mr_Spud, inspired by your answer I can enlarge it and I think I got it. thanks a lot.

As you know, I am also missing that darn "Fat Head" example. Maybe some day. Each of your coins is outstanding. It is a WOW set for sure.
