Set registry question

sweetwilliet · March 25, 2006 2:44AM

I just bought an 1880 cc 8/high 7 pcgs MS64 morgan and tried to enter it into my basic circulation strike registry set, but it said the cert number was invalid for that set. Is the only set I can enter this coin into a variety set since it is labeled as a vareity? If so, I guess that means I'd have to sell this one and get one labeled 1880 cc without a variety to complete the set.

Contact BJ at set registery varities should go into the basic set or the varity set.

The problem you have is the PCGS No on the coin slab. I believe it will not be allowed in the basic set because of the different PCGS No. The 1880-CC has a PCGS No of 7100. The variety you have is PCGS No 7102.

Good luck with this. I will interested in hearing what PCGS tells you. If they allow this, there are many varieties that they would have to allow into the basic set from the variety set.

Numonebuyer, I looked at your registry sets. How did the 1879 cc and the 1893 cc get entered as MS25?

That is why they set up separate basic and variety sets; you can use the same coins from the basic set to fill the corresponding holes in the "with varieties" set.

I don't have an answer to this question. I went in and looked at the entry and none of my information says MS. It is truely odd.

To respond to Bajjerfan, I meant that it is OK to use Basic Set coins in the Variety set (where applicable), but I don't think PCGS will allow you to use Variety Set coins (that can only be in the variety set) in the Basic Set.

I can't wait to see what PCGS says about the request.

I tried to use the 03-s micro S to fill the 03-s hole in the basic set and it would not take it.

I have seen similar designation of MS50 and othe MScirc across the street.

If I may tag on to you big coin collectors, I have a similar problem. I have a 1922 Lincoln cent with "weak D" designation. In BN, there are only 4 higher but I cannot enter it to registry as "1922D" or "1922 No D".
Any thoughts? Thanks

I have emailed PCGS, but I get the feeling that the coin will not be allowed in the basic registry set, as someone wrote beforehand, then all varieties would have to be let in.

Interesting, my 1895-O is also listed as an MS45. Hmmm...
