If you retired and sold your set, and then saw one of your coins upgraded ...

Would you think the grade in your set should change to reflect to new grade as well?

I was just thinking if you had a 66 coin in your set, retired your set, then sold the coin. The new owner submitted it in the holder for a regrade and it went to a 67. Shouldn't your retired set go up too? It is the same coin of course ...

I would guess that has actually happened, but doubt the retired set got the added point.

It does mean that someone could beat you with your own coins, which seems odd.

If it's a regrade it CERTAINLY SHOULD go up. Good point.

Hey Doug,

One of the Roosies in my set upgraded from a 65FB to a 66FB, and no, it did not effect the same coin in my set, just his.

Later, Paul.

In reality, it should - but tracking it would be a nightmare.

As far as for regrades (i.e. NOT crackouts without the original cert returned), coins should automatically reflect the new grade and the change should be automatic as the cert number stays the same (does it not?).

Not if the coin was cracked out.

I would cry because I didn't get the coin upgraded first (or pcgs didn't upgrade the coin for me).

I believe there is a change in cert number when the coin is regraded. I will have to check my records to make sure this is true.

Come to think of it Koz, I think you might be right but even still, seems easy enough to track.

That would be an interesting twist if you retired your set ,then sold it intact, and you were the top dog and then the new ower upgraded one or more coins of your coins and now is the new leader.

Your set should only upgrade if the coin kept its original certifications number. Other wise the data base does not see it as the same coin.

It shouldn't really be a nightmare to track it, since the coin is in the PCGS database.

Yes.

Well Doug, I think what PCGS is going to tell you is that your SOL. BUT , consider all the coins that get DOWNGRADED...
