Took 10 years to complete the 4 coin set although I'm looking for upgrades. Sure expected a better set rating. image

    I agree. What's up with the set weights?

    That is an awesome set you have! Short but super sweet!

    Just send them an email or phone call. It is clear their programmers are slacking, you obviously should be #1 all time finest. image

    I believe PCGS calls it a "Mechanical Error"image

    Congrats on the amazing set.image

    Lakesamman:

    I think your ranking is PCGS implicitly suggesting that your coins are over-graded!

    More seriously, that is a fantastic set. When I see more and more top graded sets completed in a year or so, it's refreshing that you took 10 years to complete your set. With this sort of care, I have to know that your coins are A+++ for eye appeal!

    Yep--the computers messed up. The 2 you imaged are super nice. If you're in Baltimore sometimes the former number one brings his MS64's (not for sale) that look just super too (as in undergraded)--think Numismatist (Ron) is sometimes at the Island Coins table. Nice Set!!!image

    Fanastic. I will give you two two-cent pieces for the lot.! Heck i'll even toss in an extra half-cent. Don't spend it all at once.

    Nice set, Big E. Congrats.

    I'm sure PCGS will fix my set soon. Email sent. Just having a little fun at their expense. image

    The 1858 LL took forever to find. It was sold in the fall of 2005 as a NGC 1858 SL - somone astute bought it and I was able to buy it later. I shouldn't have missed that auction. image

    Congratulations on a very nice set..............image
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Gotta love the math!

    By the way, save the page as later on as no one will ever believe you!

    Great looking set, would really like to see pictures of the other two coins. What was your Set Rating before you added your last coin? PM Carolj, looks like a screw up and your set deserves the place that it is due.image
