As far as I know, Ron is not a wealthy man but he struggled over several years to put together the #2 Set in the All-Time Finest Registry in the Lincoln Cent Basic Set 1909 to date and the Lincoln Set w/Varieties 1909 to date ALSO in the #2 slot! He's also #5 in All-Time finest in the 1909-1958 set.
This was an amazing undertaking and I'm sad to see the set dispersed. His coin will appeal to those that can't afford some of the super gems in the Walsh set but Ron's got some real "stoppers" such as the 1926-S 1c in MS-64 Rd and the 1922 No D 1c in MS-62 Bn, to say nothing of the very tough mintmarked reds in the teens and 20's that most need but can't afford in grades like those in the Walsh set.
Ron's a great guy and I wish him well. I see many opportunities out there for many to upgrade with dates that have become all but impossible to find these days.

(Dang I need to start saving up some cash )
In response to your questions... Yes, Heritage is (and has been for some time) in possession of my Registry set. They have been making flyers and taking pictures for the FUN 2006 catalogue etc. Again... thank you all for your help in putting this together and for your wishes of good luck.
Here is the photo of the PCGS 1926-S MS64 RD btw...
PCGS 1926-S MS64 RD . Everytime I look at this photo I find myself wondering why it's not an MS65 RD!!!
Best Regards,
