any registry experts out there?

beorn

i have a registry set #24 in the 1964-1998 proof quarter catagory and for the life of me i cant figure out how the guy in the #23 spot has a higher total.if anyone out there is bored and cares to take a peek,i,d appreciate it.apparently i,m not understanding the weight system correctly...thanks

He has all the KEYS (Heavier Weighted Coins 68S - 74S) and you do not. While all your later date 69s are weighted 1 or 2 (69 multiplied by weight) he has all the 68 thru 74 coins with weights between 3 and 5 (grade multiplied by weight).

He has 25 coins and you have 33 but because of the dates he has, his are weighted heavier.

If you care about always being ranked as high as possible at all times you need to buy the keys (Heavier Weighted Coins) first.

It looks as if where he gets ahead of you is the 60s and early 70s he has most of these coins and you dont have them in your set and these coins are heavily weighted with weights of 3 to 4 and 5 . You have more coins but his weighted coins add up to more points in the set rating. One more coin in your set and you will pass him.


Looks like Bill beat me to the punch.

I see you got your answer beorn.

I'm currently #22 so I'll be keeping an eye on you as you add your keys.

BTW: very nice 1967 SMS you added to your set.

Good luck,
RonMan

Beorn, that 67 of yours is quite a find. I'd love to see a pic of that one. Good luck on those early 70's pieces. I keep sending them in myself, but not getting back what I think I should, those are some difficult years.
