FSH or trade - 8x 1947 Roosevelt Dimes PCGS MS66
I would prefer a trade to help complete my sets, but I have (8)eight 1947 Roosevelt dimes graded by PCGS as MS66. This date carries a lot of weight in the registry. All coins are bright white except one that has a small spot of toning on reverse. Looking for most other date roosevelt dimes in FB or non FB. Need eveything… -
Re: Another MBA question
Centering is the only characteristic that can objectively be measured. So, yes it carries a lot of weight. Corners to an extent can be categorized: dog-earred, rounded, frayed, touched slightly, chipped, square and untouched. Other qualities are in the eye of the beholder: color, registration, print flaws. -
Re: WOW!!! New grading criteria for PSA
Shane- I wholeheartedly believe that this decision will have a significant, negative impact on the value of PSA 9s. By giving collectors an option to purchase an 8.5 for a fraction of what a 9 would sell for, combined with the fact that there will be a slew of 8.5s as compared to 9s, it suddenly becomes a viable financial… -
Re: June Pick-Up's....Let's see what you got!!!!
<< <i>[I'm really not a fan of these arbitrary set weightings. >> Agree in the subjective, arbitrary weightings, though some cards like the early Mantles should weigh a ton more than the far less in-demand later issues. After all, how much more desirable is a 51-53 Mantle than the 67 or 69? But what's even worse is when… -
Re: Why NGC kicks PCGS' butt
From what I can see NGC is basically a copycat company following in the footprints of PCGS with their forum and registry. There is nothing inherently wrong with this strategy. Following anothers successful business plan has often been a fruitful endeavor and frequently the innovator has fallen aside as the second company… -

Re: new 1960's football olympics sets?
Mike, Firstly, I would like to say thank you for taking on this headache. You do a first class job and it adds to the enjoyment that I get from the hobby. Weighting - I still don't think these should be in any way weighted. The Olympics that we are patterning after does not. Since all the sets are not created equal, no… -
Re: Weight Vs. Price
Originally posted by: JoeBanzai Originally posted by: LarkinCollector I think there should be a clearly established system that adjusts the weights based on current Pop Report data. For example, if there are 5 or less graded examples = 10 weight, 6-15 = 9, 16-25 = 8, etc. Adjust the pop numbers however you want, but make… -
We are listening
Happy New Year to you all. Some of you might complain that the people who make decisions for the PCGS Set Registry (which consists of both PCGS employees and CUI employees) are not listening to the participants of the Registry. But I can tell you that that is simply not the case. We view the Registry as one of the most… -
Re: * optional cards in player sets.
<< <i>I also equate the Kraft panel the same as a hostess panel. It could be submitted individually or as a panel but it goes in the set. >> And often times they are both weighted the same. If you can only get a single by essentially destroying a panel (which you must do -- as you must destroy the surrounding cards to get…
