    That exact thing was suggested in the threads a week or two ago - I'm glad they did it (The online photos of the set). image

    Actually, it was first suggested in the Q&A forum a couple years ago.

    This is news I can use! I especially like this part: "Access to this incredibly comprehensive online photographic guide to grading United States Coins will be free as a service to the numismatic community". Very cool.

    Fantastic !!!!
    Thanks to all at PCGS , it appears that they have been taking note of some of the constructive criticism on these threads.
    Ir wont take care of recent gradeflation and the disappearance of the previous grading set , but it will absolutely set the current standards in stone
    Thank you HRH
    Buy the dips!!!

    Yep. Kudos to PCGS for doing this and for making a free service to all. As much as we can be critical when a service does something wrong, we should recognize when they do something right. image

    Nice to see this project finally coming to fruition.

    One thing though makes me wonder--the online photos are being done in conjunction with B&M, which has some of the worst online auction photography around. Hopefully this will result in B&M upgrading its abysmal photo work, rather than resulting in poor quality grading set pics.
