Scrolling through the Modern Type sets and couldn't find one of my set categories, only to find that PCGS has changed the display. Now, the 20th Century MS with Varieties and the 20th Century MS Major Types are both listed on the same page. The combined MS & PR sets are now both listed on a single page as well. If I remember right, the only Modern Type sets left for PCGS are the two Proof only sets.

while in fact he has had only one year of experience...
twenty times.
I have had to enter in the set each time. If you already had a set entered, check with BJ and she may be able to help you with it.

I also asked about the basic type set idea. BJ said that is still in the hopper and likely to go up when they start working on the weights for the complete type sets.
Thats what I know.

What was that logic on registering every possible gold set? I'll bet I can register a lot of incomplete gold sets...
TypeTone, Thanks for the news about the lack of proof only type set. That was going to get my main attention. Really I'd like a complete proof type set, no gold
Gold -- Kill the 8 coin 20th Century Design set or the 12 coin Basic Gold Type Set. It is the same pair of sets, except one requires a few coins from the mid to late 1800's. Kill the 20th Century Proof set, it will not be used in the future by anyone.
Modern Type sets -- No real need for a Combined Set. The proof guys will dominate it in points, and whether you are a MS or PR guy, you only have to buy a few extras.
20th Century sets -- Eliminate the Major Type sets. The With Varieties sets are the set of choice for the collectors. Then, add a 20th Century proof only set. I bet that there are more people besides Carl who would be willing to go for the early date coins in proof grades too. Once you get past the current stuff, proof coins can be found toned and with character that you don't see on the modern date proof material.

In gold, I would kill the 8 piece 20th century and keep the 12 piece set. After all if you are doing gold type, there is no reason to insist on 20th Lib coins. The 19th centruy versions are just as good. I guess the same applies to Barbers in our sets, but that's an issue for another day.
Greg
Instead of a Basic Gold Type set, we really have a Basic Type set 1838-1933. I agree that the 8 piece is probably the one that ought to go. So far, the 12 piece set has had a lot of success, and is a good bridge to get people interested in the earlier gold. The Type 1 & 3 gold dollars are inexpensive in lower MS grades, and even the Type 2 and the $3 gold are not bad up to AU.
