TEN MOST FAMOUS UNITED STATES ULTRA RARITIES SET ONLINE

We have just added a new category to the Registry called "Famous U.S. Coins." This new addition will feature high profile coins in various combinations, and the first "set" is described as "The Ten Most Famous United States Ultra Rarities."
The initial Top Ten list includes coins from the collections of Louis E. Eliasberg, Adolphe Menjou, Will W. Neil, Waldo Newcomer, the Norweb Family, and the Smithsonian/National Numismatic Collection. We have launched this particular set to bring awareness to collectors who sometimes don't realize the historical significance, great rarity or fantastic quality of many of the coins with those pedigrees.
The PCGS Board of Experts -- including David Hall, John Dannreuther, Gordon Wrubel, Bruce Amspacher, Ron Howard, Jim Halperin and Anthony Terranova -- reached a consensus opinion on the coins in the PCGS Ten Most Famous U.S. Ultra Rarities (in order of denominations):
. 1913 Liberty Head nickel
. 1894-S Barber dime
. 1876-CC twenty-cent piece
. 1838-O half dollar
. 1804 $1 (Original or Restrike)
. 1870-S Seated Liberty dollar
. 1885 Trade Dollar
. $4 "Stella" (1879 or 1880) Coiled Hair
. 1907 Ultra High Relief Saint-Gaudens $20
. 1927-D Saint-Gaudens $20

NEW PHILIPPINES SET COMPOSITES

During the past few years, we have received numerous requests for these popular issues, so over the last few weeks we have been adding the United States coinage for the Philippines. Every denomination is represented including complete sets for circulated strike issues and proof issues. In the next few days, type sets will be added as well. These sets can be found in the "Private Issues and Territorial Gold" category. Click here.

As always, should you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Thanks for your support of the PCGS Set Registry.
