I have a registry set valued at over $1000, yet no points

I think I might have the lowest weighted registry set. The set is the Complete U.S. type coins, 1792 - 1964. Based upon the weighted points, it SHOULD have a set rating of -32, (Chain cent: 9x(1-3) + Liberty Cap cent 7x(1-3). That is because the have a deduction of 3 points for any copper coin that is brown. Both coins are PO-01.

It shows that it has a zero set rating, but I guess is that PCGS' computers can't handle negative numbers for sets. I could spend several thousand more and still have a significant negative set rating. The name of the set is "Low-grade set" and I am number 77.

Anyone have a lower set rating on any set? Especially ones that are so valuable. image

There is a flaw in how sets are rated.

    This set comes darn close and it is 80% complete.

    In light of these developments, I am considering a run for a set that will yield results... more later but it may be deemed to be not topical on this forum...

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    If only I could meet those that have held that coin.

    The good thing about having multiple personalities is that there's always a designated driver.

    Yes, I'm an agent of Satan but my duties are largely ceremonial.
