    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.

    It seems pretty easy to get one's own pedigree ATS.

    @jwitten Thanks. I didn't know that. That is good information.

    I wonder what the cutoff is? Top 3? Top 5? Top 10?

    I've checked into it with PCGS for my toned Indian set. Unfortunately they said it has to be among the highest graded sets to get a pedigree. Boo.

    Wow!!! That is an amazing set with gorgeous color.

    Not my name, but the collection name on two sets.

    When the Registry first came out, I think PCGS was willing to pedigree your collection. I remember having a vanity set of Franklin FBs and Washington Quarters ("Poole Collection").

    I'm sure they bring multiples of base value in the after-market. >:)

    No. I don't think my name on a slab is an attractive idea.

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    Hopefully this will be a change with the new management, like ATS. That should be my item for the CEO for a Day post.

    What if I changed my last name to "Arrows"?

    Thought about changing my name to '50 cent' but it was already taken.

    Mine is one hundreds. It is spread out a bit, like a dumping a bowl of Alpha Bits on the table. On slabs, I can take a marker pen and circle the letters that make up my name on a whole lot of slabs.

    I refused to be constrained by the Neo-Classical Decadent Imperialistic Bourgeois Conceptual Anathema that dictates the spelling of my name must follow outdated Linearalistic paradigms of rigid sequentialism.

  • BryceMBryceM Posts: 11,863 ✭✭✭✭✭

    No, but my understanding is that I could have my 20th Century Type set pedigreed if I wanted to. That would mean losing some of the older holders and all the fuss doesn't really seem worth it at present. It wouldn't make me enjoy the coins any more than I do already. I suppose if I ever sell them I'd think about it.

    no but ill ask them again if they would :'(
