I still agree with what someone mentioned: win a award if your set is comprised 75% or more of NGC coins. Come on, whats the point of giving someone a 100% PCGS set a award on the NGC registry? They can win or compete against people on the PCGS registry. Those that have NGC dominant sets should have a chance.

So if the #1 set is 100% PCGS and has a score of 100,000 but the #2 set has a score of 75,000 but comprised of 75% or more NGC coins, they should be the one to win an award. I hope this is still true.

I like the old way where the 100,000 point PCGS set would win Best in Category but the 75,000 point set would win Best NGC Set in Category. 

I wonder if anyone at NGC with authority is even listening to us lolol

Hello, Mk3.

Registry scores are calculated the same for PCGS coins and NGC coins. This has always been the case. This is to ensure a level playing field for all collectors.

Yes. And now this tiebreak rule is going by the wayside to, yes? For the record, I support this. I also support that 75% need to be NGC coins so a PCGS whale can't come in here and dominate. Thanks!!

PCGS coins receive the same NGC Registry scores as NGC coins. As of 2020, we are removing the tie-breaking criteria for NGC versus PCGS coins. We will update this page soon: About the NGC Registry.

That's great news! Thanks!

Whatever dude you seem to have chip on your shoulder about this because of how it affects you is what I'm seeing.  This tie issue will most likely only apply to modern coin series where collectors are chasing PF70/MS70 coins, the fellow you warned is doing Morgans and the chances of a tie in that series is very small.   If moderns are your thing that's cool but imo having hundreds of thousands invested in moderns is a huge gamble, those coin prices have nowhere to go but down.  And if being the top set in a series is/was a goal then it would be wise to do some research about the scoring system before starting such a set to avoid any disappointments.  I have tens of thousands in my set and I have zero chance of reaching the top spot, for me its all about my collecting goals not awards. 

Lol. We should hang

It's still the registry and the rankings are up to date.  It's also the link to get to custom sets.  Go to your own log in page and you can see it reflects all the updated information.

I'm very familiar, thank you. It would be nice not to have to toggle back and forth and to make the overall points all pretty like the rest of the new registry.

Just a bit over the top don't you think?

Over the top? Not if you have tens or hundreds of thousands invested.

hang on, fixing link

Well try this.  I couldn't find a direct link without being logged in, so maybe this will work after I logged out.

Thanks. But that's the old registry. Happy New Year

I was just boxing up 4 PCGS graded Morgan CC dollars for crossover when I saw the email come across.  So yeah, it just saved me $180.  Im new at this.  I don't know the history of all of it, and actually don't much care.  I've spent a good chunk of change putting the CC Morgans together - most in MS62-63 range, with exceptions of course.  I've never submitted to PCGS.  I've submitted a few to ANACS.  Honestly I just ended up with more NGC Coins that PCGS so thats how I settled on NGC.  Actually it didn't much matter until I discovered these registry sets.  And now, it still doesn't matter - thanks NGC.  I wish an MS70 (and all other grades) coin weighted evenly across the major grading companies...

Beware. There is a penalty for using PCGS coins. If your points tie with someone using more NGC coins than you then you will be ranked behind them.

Would you be happier if they just lowered the points for PCGS coins by 5-10% as some have suggested so you get a lower score than the all NGC sets?

 

I've never heard that ludicrous suggestion until now. The old way: one award for Best in Category and another for NGC Best in Category served us well for many years. This new rule - if it's a new rule - is senseless. At a minimum this PCGS penalty should have been clearly stated at every possible chance, hell it should have been shouted from the rooftops. Rule changes cost some of us a lot of $$. No bueno!

So now NGC accepts PCGS coins for US Sets but get penalized for using them? It used to be that you could win best in Category if you used some PCGS but then you probably wouldn't get NGC best in category, Now you can't even get to number 1 if you tie the top scores). That's very disappointing. I liked the old way much better and 99 percent of my coins are NGC. 

Check Silver Eagles, 1986-Date, Proofs, Including Varieties. I'm second because I registered two PCGS coins. Not cool

Hi - I love the old registry because I can see where I rank overall as well as in US Sets and World Sets. Where is this in the new registry? This is one of my favorite features. Hopefully it doesn't go by the wayside. It's a great motivator lol. 

It was working for a couple of hours now it's down again. The freeze deadline looms....

Add coin is down. System problem. thanks

Please add Niue 2014 $2 Swans - Love is Precious Colorized proof to $2 Birds of Niue Proof Set. Thank you!

Please add the 1996 Australia S$30 Kookaburra to a competitive set. I suggest that you change the $30 Kookaburra set to 1992 - present as that is when the series began. My cert # is 705766-001. Please also add this coin to the census. Right now there is not a spot on the census for a 1996 mint state $30 Kookaburra and I believe the population is 1.
