Re: Set rating question.
My understanding is that the rating of the card isn't based on the raw value, but the value in PSA 8. I think the system does have some flaws though. PSA 8 in 1952 Topps is a lot harder than PSA 8 in 1990 Leaf. In my opinion, there is no one standard that makes sense when applied to all sets across the board. I think each… -
Re: Who determines the rarity multipliers for Registry sets?
Can't answer who, but this is what PCGS says about how .... "What are weights? Within a set, not all coins have the same value and rarity. Sets in the PCGS Set Registry are weighted on a 1 to 10 scale with 10 being the rarest coin and 1 being the most common. While it may be in true in some instances that a coin may be… -
Re: Anyone up for some Roosie Talk? - Thread #7
Danny, Great suggestions. I posted a few years back my thoughts. When it comes to setting up new weights on sets, why try to reinvent the wheel? Take a Washington Basic Registry set and the 1948-D that has a weight of 4, yet while the 1948 mint set has a weight of 2. Your suggestion pertains to census rarity and mine would… -
? about weight assignments.
Anyone know how PSA assigns weights to cards within Registry sets? I would think the more rare the card, the higher the point value. I have a particular player set that contains some one of ones, as in the only one graded by PSA, not just within the grade. However, these cards have a 1-point value. I am more curious than… -
LINCOLN CENT WEIGHTINGS FOR ALL NEW REG SETS ARE UP
I just noticed that the four NEW Lincoln Cent Registry sets have now been weighted. They are the basic and the with varieties BUSINESS STRIKE sets for 1909 thru 2005 and the basic and the with varieties PROOF STRIKE sets for 1909 thru 2005. I do not know if BJ has plans to automatically update these sets from existing… -
Re: Waiting on a player list to be added... anyone know who to contact?
The registry people aren't just doing the card registry- there are coins and currency as well. The sets have to be weighted, which takes time. I've had a few held up because Joe has to review the weighting, and I"m sure he's got a few other things to do as well. I requested a few sets a few months ago, and then this week… -
Re: From what I am thinking on my ranking on my 100% complete set..
If there are sets missing coins and they are above you in rankings, it is likely they not only have higher grades, but perhaps more importantly they may have higher grades in the more difficult coins with higher weightings. At the top of each set page there is a blue set composition button. If you click on it, you can see… -
Re: The disappearing Hall of Fame set ???
After thinking about it some more (and reading mike's post), I would amend my suggestion as to what sets should be considered to be more case-by-case on vintage cards. '51 Topps Connie Mack's All Stars wouldn't be covered by my initial definition, but these cards were a very important issue of their time. Here's a thought… -
Re: Curious observation on Ike price guide
<< <i>Agree with all the comments. This is a rare coin. MS 64 $300-400 MS 65 $800-1000 MS66 $1500+ MS67 Name Your Price >> Dang! Its too bad that the Registry weights do not reflect reality. Currently the FS-401 has a weight of 5.00 while a 1976-D Type 1 has a weight of 6.00. This means that the MS64 1976-D T1 coin at $35… -
Re: Can anyone help me with Tom Downey player card weights?
Neil, Look at some of the similar sets. Compare their weights to prices. Then do the same for your set. Probably keep in mind that these wont be the most expensive cards in the set and wont demand a high weight. PM me if you need some help. Also, check to see how they are weighted in the set registry for each set. As some…
