Will anyone here be moving into 1st place in the PCGS Registry this year (only few days left)?

mercurydimeguy · June 27, 2016 4:58AM

For people who have registry sets, and have moved into 1st place (Current Finest and/or All-time Finest) by June 30, 2016. If so, post links to your sets.

I have 5 Registry Sets in all, but this is the only one that moved into the top spot (Current and All-time).

1969 Mint Set

Stooge · June 27, 2016 9:59AM

I plan on moving into the first place slot in a Roosevelt Dime slot in the year 2048. By then I will have caught Nick.

Also I will be 80yrs old!

tradedollarnut · June 27, 2016 11:00AM

Yes as soon as I update this (sets at the top are most recently updated. Lol)

What percentage are stickered ? Thanks

onlyroosies · June 27, 2016 1:20PM

Jon,

I stopped searching for the varieties and focused my attention on This Roosie Set. If a variety comes along that I need at a decent price then OK I'll bite.

Paul,

I'll only be 91 by that time and will still be in 1st place

TigersFan2 · June 27, 2016 1:24PM

I've not really understood the Registry Set competition. But then again, I don't have the funds to compete. Anyway, do the winners actually win anything other than a small amount of fame? Seriously, put on a Chewbacca mask and laugh like an idiot and there's apparently a lot more fame to be had.

oih82w8 · June 27, 2016 1:25PM

No threat here...my highest set is #14.

TopographicOceans · June 27, 2016 3:10PM

I remember years ago I sniped my way into a #1.

There were a number of sets tied for #1 (this was back in 2002 when being #1 was easy).

I had bought the coin that would put me as #1 in the set and bump everybody else down to a tie at #2, but didn't enter it until the night before the deadline so nobody else would rush out and buy one.

Doing the same as we speak. Won't publish set until 4pm EST on Thursday. Description Header, Pictures, Digital Album all ready to go. Working on the set for the last year. Be a sad day if someone else is sandbagging as well.

Sniping in the Registry updates...I would not have thought of that...it's always something to get the edge on the competition.

Nick,

I will never catch you on the set you mentioned, but may pass you on the variety set.

It's all in fun people.....at least with me it is.

keets · June 27, 2016 9:52PM

I suppose I could make a move if I wanted to buy points with 70's but that doesn't make sense. I would rather spend that money on true gems.

Bankerbob56 · June 27, 2016 9:55PM

I guess I don't really understand the Registry Set rules? What is the significance of moving into 1st place late on June 30th?

Most of the set was purchased prior to the advent of CAC and stickered later. The early dollars however were mainly after CAC. A few of those aren't stickered still but I know why and I accept the fact. For instance, JA calls the fingerprint 1799 dollar an original 65 due to the print - but I bought it at 65+ money and I'm happy with it. Eventually, he will sticker the 1798 SE dollar as its hands down the finest known and IMO a no brainer 63. The 1801 we will just have to disagree on - he doesn't like friction on the cheek and I accept it for the grade. That's pretty much it!

Looks like my express submission is going to miss it by a day based on current turnaround times.

Boosibri · June 28, 2016 9:55PM

My express submission should be done but it won't be enough to knock off Cardinal (not that I am even trying) from the Spanish Milled set until I find an MS 4R Pillar.

mustangmanbob · June 29, 2016 12:23AM

There was a VERY obscure Registry Set set I thought I had a shot at:

The Rxxxxxx Hxxxxxxxx of Rxxxxxxxxx TX Safety Deposit Box 1124 set.

I thought since I was the only one who had a key to that Safety Deposit Box, I would be #1

Sadly, I came in 3rd. Competition is fierce for #1

AUandAG · June 29, 2016 12:39AM

I only have one set and even though it is complete there is not much chance of it ever being number one. CC Low Ball Morgans. I did go from nothing to number 5 this year.

sparky64 · June 29, 2016 1:09AM

Not this year.

I'm #35 out of 40 in my one and only set........and that's okay with me.

I enjoy the heck out of it.

bolivarshagnasty · June 30, 2016 7:03AM

boo yah! #1 1937 Mint Set

WaterSport · June 30, 2016 8:32AM

Well I will be darn, Guess I snagged 2. Its been 8 years. I thought for sure my good friend AUHobby would bounce in at the last minute especially when I saw some one got a couple of coins graded he needed to do me in. I expect to bumped down eventually. And of course I owe a big thanks to Doug for selling his proofs this year! LOL

rainbowroosie · June 30, 2016 9:52AM

Stooge,
I'll be 100 plus by then, but in the interim, I plan to win Nick's set in a golf death grudge match (using my rules and referee) and merge it with mine....then I'd be numero uno...

Seriously, you'll need a ton of major league Roosies to top Nick's set.

wondercoin · June 30, 2016 10:19AM

And, the Pop 1/0 PCGS-MS68FB 1964-D Roosie (from the former JHF set) will appear in the August Anaheim Heritage auction at NO RESERVE, so Nick may just end up picking up yet another cool coin for his set.

golden · June 30, 2016 10:21AM

Looks like that I made 4 #1 sets.

That is a beautiful Dime Wondercoin, but Nick will never shell out $10 large for any Roosie.

wondercoin · June 30, 2016 5:46PM

The dime starts at $1 with no reserve and may not end at anywhere near $10 large. In fact, it could end at closer to $1 than $10 large. You never know with unreserved coins.

Wondercoin.

I will be sure to keep me eye on it then.

Which set is yours?

It's amazing how hundredths of a point separate a couple of sets...

A couple of sets. The one linked below and the basic D-Mint Type set as well.

DIMEMAN · July 1, 2016 6:59AM

I am surprised that 64-D made 68 with all the bad gouges on the bottom of the torch. And also the hit on the bands should have kept it from FB.

That's good to know, cause we all treasure your "H.O." when it comes to Roosevelt Dimes.

Will anyone here be moving into 1st place in the PCGS Registry this year (only few days left)?
