Nothing here.
I would have liked to have received the pin from PCGS
I think it's a relatively small token offering/reward for being "the best of" given the funds expended to participate in the registry and win.
Well, my birthday has come and gone and still nothing so yesterday I sent Paulina an email asking about the status of the "awards and pins but have received no reply as of yet.
Oh well!

In addition to Paulina and Emilio who have been great in dealing with many issues, there is a new Sr. Director over the Registry, Justin Atkins.

Thanks @Goldminers for the update.
I too have nothing bad to say about Paulina and Emilio. They are the best. I feel that they are still working from home and do not have access to the award items. I will give it about another week before I call.

Best of Registry pin received. I'm surprised that they don't send out a slabbed penny with Best of Registry label. Seems like the cool way to celebrate coin collectors...
I tried to call yesterday but could not get thru.
I will try again today.
I hope that others are calling and if they get thru that they will post their responses here.
Wayne
I got to speak to Emlio today. He has told me that the pins for all are on their way.
Let us know when you get yours.
He will get back to me on the progress of the certs that I requested last year.
Wayne
I noticed that there was no opportunity to place a vote on the "digital" album of the year either.
I did receive my 2023 pin but still after so many promises to get my paper certs, I still have not.
My opinion is that all of the non-grading staff are working from home so there is no one to ship the items out.
Wayne
I have sent several emails to 4 different PCGS folks requesting a few changes to correct some problems with registry sets and have not received a reply. I tried calling several times and no answer to my voice mails.
I am sorry to say, the very upper management of this company seems to consider the PCGS registry a low priority. The folks doing the work remotely seem to be doing the very best they can under the circumstances, and I appreciate their dedication.

I am going to vote later! I just looked and can’t decide between two of the sets!
Two others are ruled out by me immediately, however, as one is missing images (and I don’t think this is a registry issue) and another is missing an owner’s overview/description. Curious that those sets were included.
Both are lovely sets, I just don’t understand how they could be included given the criteria.

Strike that as I think there was an issue with the images on one set. Now showing as complete! Going to vote now!!!
My set digital album still does not work at all. PCGS just does not seem to support these sets like it used to.
It is a great set with 162 different True Views including some very low pop medals and many are the highest ever graded and all issued by the US Mint that most people have never even seen. Even the bonus gold highlighting is missing on many pop 1, top pop medals that I worked on for years finding.
Just too frustrating, as I get no responses anymore. I have tried two years to get this set sorted out and no one there can help.

My digital albums are all a total wreck. If I could figure out how to delete them all, I would.
Every time I go and look at them, I get upset.
I have over 50 digital albums of which 3 sets have over 200+ coins.
The largest has 284.
Remember all coin slots require a obverse and a reverse picture that needs to be adjusted to fit if they do not come with a TV.
Oh yeah, another issue is that TV’s no longer load even though they say that they do.

I just looked, and at least on my screen, one of the sets is still currently missing two coins.
Keep in mind that the “Owners Comments” are shown BELOW the PCGS generic comments at the top of the inside page of the cover. I just looked, and I still see the same now as at the beginning when these were posted - “Owners Comments” are provided by the owner of only one of the five sets!

I hope you finally got yours. I’m still waiting & hoping. I contacted CS last week as Registry wasn’t responding. I’m supposed to have this resolved by Wednesday. If not, I’m trying again.
Getting some response but going nowhere just the same. I was told they were all mailed out but they had some logistical issues along the way. Rep wants to discuss with me but doesn’t seem to be available. I’m done with this - too much ado about nothing for a banner pin(s). PCGS: you can keep it/them. (note: I keep using (s) or them as 2023 was the first year I had multiple #1 sets. So I don’t know if one gets a banner for each #1 or just one for all. At this point, it doesn’t matter.).
So I don’t know if one gets a banner for each #1 or just one for al!.
No matter how many sets you have that are #1, you only get one pin but you can get one pin per different catorgories.
The ANNUAL PCGS SET REGISTRY AWARDS are:
Gold Level
Best Digital Albums
Best of the Registry
Platinum Level
HOF PCGS Set Registry Coin Collecting Hall of Fame
10 Year Anniversary
Hope this helps but winning does not mean that they get mailed out.

Good luck @messydesk I hope you get the answers you're looking for.
I just hope I get the pin I'm looking for.

I'd be happy if they would get the pins to all the winners that did not receive them for last year.
I am thinking a PCGS coin box in a special new color and lid that said PCGS Registry Award Winner would be an interesting award in the future.
