Guys,
Thank you very much for the update. I honestly did not know these were rated/graded. How did you guys find out?
Where can I see the rankings?
Thanks again,
Zohar

Impressive! Good job!

What a nice looking set Zohar, and congratulations that is an impressive award.

Thanks for the kind words Jeff. I might also mention that JCMHouston won many first place awards. In my opinion Jeff has one of the most impressive sets in the registry with his George III 1/2 d collection.

Zohar, go to the NGC page and they have the winner announcement on the front page, you won Best Overall World set, quite an accomplishment.

Thank you very much, Jeff. I just saw it. This feels very nice given the phenomenal quality of sets on this forum and registry. I guess the Taler set "representation" was missing within the signature set and I benefitted from this void. I will keep at it, along with the Shooting Taler set, and the one I started recently, Israel Early Statehood Set.

Congratulations, Zohar!

I added the little prize icon next to my signature link. Seriously, prior to Conrad's update, I did not at all know that my set was being judged or reviewed as part of any competition. I simply used it for inventory and certification management as well as a sharing platform for such sets.

This is the biggest surprise and recognition since I started collecting and if you would not have all emphasized the significance of the award, I would not have enjoyed this as much. Thank you for making my day!
