  1. If I recall correctly, NGC did not grade “modern” coins early on thus in some series there are many more PCGS coins in the marketplace in some series.

    I also believe there are some significant differences between NGC and PCGS in some series. Examples that I am familiar with are Roosevelt Dimes and Franklin Halves. In the dime, PCGS is more strict in their standards. In the halves I believe NGC is more stringent. 

     

  2. Ali,

    Based on your response to my comments above you are rejecting before consideration so not sure why you’re even asking for input. There are several sets where specific coins series do not have graded specimens to allow the number of people to complete the sets at the highest level. NGC also includes oddballs in a lot of sets that preclude collectors to complete the set. Example 1943/1942 overdate Jefferson. Pretty sure the mint never intended to release it as a production coin.

    Custom sets are fine but not on a competitive basis.

  3. Allow registry users more input when new sets are requested. Not sole determination by NGC. Example: no FT set of silver Roosevelt dimes has been requested and always denied. Same with Mercury dimes, Jeff nickels without FS. Coins points based on the grade of the coin without the FT, FS, etc. designations.

     

    After all the registry is about the users.

     

    Thanks!
