*Need a new slot/row added to an existing set? Post here!
Dove Garden replied to Ali E.'s topic in NGC Registry
Hello, Ali Thank you for the discussion and your response. There are some type sets, either PF or MS coins can be entered for a slot (in german sets but also in US). In the german "Gold 100 Euro, 2002-Date, Type Set, Mint State & Proof," (we talk about at moment) MS coins were entered in slots where PF coins were previously listed. I thought this might have been a response to my forum post. Additionally, I observed that some duplicate entries were corrected, but the entries for 2004 and 2005 were not. Furthermore, my 2009 (6647821-008) and 2010 (6647821-009) MS coins have not been entered into the registry. It's not a problem if sets for explicitly MS or PF coins are created. However, having a mixed set is very important to me. I cannot know in advance how the coin will be graded, and I cannot acquire coins for a specific set unless they are already graded (what is difficult as I order the newest coins directly from mint). Thanks again for considering my feedback. Best regards, -

Dear Ali, First off, I want to thank you for updating the registry to include the missing data and for allowing both Proof (PF) and Mint State (MS) coins in the set. I really appreciate your efforts to enhance the registry and make it more comprehensive. However, I need to clarify a small but important point. My suggestion was not to create separate entries for PF and MS coins. All German 100 Euro commemorative coins are produced in "Stempelglanz" (brilliant uncirculated) quality. Unlike silver coins (where "Stempelglanz" and "Spiegelglanz" coins are produced), there simply are not two different qualities for gold coins. Therefore, there shouldn't be two separate entries in the set for PF and MS. I don't mind the NGC grading these coins as PF or MS, even though I think MS and MS PL would be more fitting. In the current format, my set appears only half complete, even though I've been ordering these coins from the official issuing authority from the very beginning and have a complete set (disregarding the different mint marks, of course). Combining the entries would better reflect the nature of these coins and maintain consistency within the registry. Thanks again for your hard work, and I hope this suggestion helps to improve the set further. Best regards -

Hello, please add new slots to Gold 100 Euro, 2002-Date, Type Set, Proof 2020 - 6647821-018 2021 - 6647821-011 2022 2023 2024 (will be issued next months) Please also allow MS coins in this set. There are no different issues for gold coins in Germany at the moment. You can't order proofs or business strikes... From my point of view they are all MS with PL or DPL if dies are fresh Many thank and best regards -

Thanks for sharing! It's got me thinking about collecting purposes... My wife would go for MS and would be right from "investing" point of view. But a set of trade coinage from that era with that look in a nice display...

hi, you can mark the area with your mouse first and right-click for print after that. I get a pretty decent result in Edge, I think It's not different for other browsers too

Congrats to all the 2023 registry award winners!
Dove Garden replied to Coinbuf's topic in NGC Registry
I don't know if it has been suggested before, but how about adding another column with the awards in the top collector list? At the moment, you can only see it when you go to the user page. -

Laying out coins on the bed, locking myself in my office room on weekends to take photos. My wife found it amusing that there are indeed others of the same kind
