I called NGC about the Obscured Sets in our Registry

I called NGC early this morning on something thats been frustrating me for quite sometime. I have always felt Ngc would like to see all their members share and view each others coins,

wherein return everyone being equal an getting all the benefits this great company has to offer.

NGC,just emailed me back a few minutes ago mentioning that they couldnt promise a obscured set would never be selected, but did says starting this year (2013) the Judges would lean toward/and favor the Public viewed sets first.This is something that has been on the minds of many,an now can be rest assured Ngc will follow through with their words.

This is a great start for the New Year!

Thank you Ngc!

Definition of Obsured:

Not clearly seen or easily distinguished. Not readily understood or

clearly expressed; also being mysterious.

Question:

Why would anyone have their Registry collection obscured?

What if everyone in the Registry obscured their sets? In my opinion these collectors who do that,are losing more than their gaining. I realize all members have a right to hide their coins from other members on Ngc.

However, if thats their choosing- I believe they shouldnt be allowed to participate when it comes time for the Awards Program at the end of each year.

Im curious to what other members feel, and to give their thoughts on it. I am proud of what coins I own and have accomplished and will proudly display these coins for everyone here at Ngc to view.

Wishing everyone here the Best! Jim Berline
