Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted October 3, 2002 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted October 3, 2002 Scores have been revised for some of the modern type coins. Check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartdog-migration Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 Guess there is no real way to see what/where the revisions were applied? Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithdagen Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 David, Is there an easy way for us to see which scores were changed? I can see that my set dropped points, but not which slots may have been adjusted downwards. Thanks, Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Architecht Posted October 3, 2002 Administrator Share Posted October 3, 2002 Hi Keith, There's no easy automated way to display this, as we don't track updates to the scores by date and time or anything. The only way to handle this is if David had some pretty specific and easily postable notes about his changes - and that doesn't seem likely that they're in an electronic format, or that they were done with an eye towards public posting of them. I don't know this for a fact, but I know if it were me doing it, I probably wouldn't have anything like that. Thus unfortunately, there's probably no easy way to provide what you're asking.

keithdagen Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 I took a look in the areas that he mentioned and can see where some changes had been made according to my original notes on the scores. Even though I had suggested changes in those areas, it's still weird to see a 1,600+ point drop in your set and not really be sure which scores went down. (If nothing else, if any other area had changed, I wanted to refresh my Excel data before my next post on scoring suggestions). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldtrader3 Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 David: The Franklin Set still has problems (i.e. the 1949-DFBL & 1950-D MS64FBL) coins are still only worth 3 points. These coins cost over $100 each and are hard to find. The MS65FBL coins are prohibitively expensive (over $1000.00) for a Franklin half. Would you, when you have time, look at this set?

snizzenfixit Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 The Franklin Set still has problems (i.e. the 1949-DFBL & 1950-D MS64FBL) coins are still only worth 3 points. These coins cost over $100 each and are hard to find. Franklin Proofs have $300 coins that are only pulling 3 points as well. The last theory I heard was that these pricey coins are "Not Competetive" Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted October 8, 2002 Author Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted October 8, 2002 We're quite aware of some problems with the date sets, but there seemed to be more urgency in updating the type sets, since there are more users of these. We'll get to the date sets ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snizzenfixit Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 Thank you, this is the first time anyone has acknowledged a problem with this set. It is good to know that it will be looked into. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldtrader3 Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 What is the meaning exactly of "Not Competitive"?? I call any coin that costs over $100 "Competitive by definition! Any "D" Franklin that is FBL and over the score of MS64FBL is "worthy" of inclusion, because 1. they are expensive and 2. the "D" Mint MS65FBL's are so expensive and so low in certified volume that they are almost unattainable.

Oldtrader3 Posted October 8, 2002 Share Posted October 8, 2002 I do know that the Wash. Qyarters and the Kennedy halves were affected because I spent 2 hours on Sunday night revising these issues to coins with higher scores to offset the score reduction. I eventually got it down to -4 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartdog-migration Posted October 16, 2002 Share Posted October 16, 2002 A bit curious as to point value of 1965 Kennedy Half dollar. I do not have PCGS pops but when looking at NGC pops it appears to me that the 65 comes out on the short end when compared with 66-69 Kennedy Halves??

Oldtrader3 Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 In this latest adjustment of the USA Type Set, you guys did not list the coins that were affected in the change. The previous adjustment had the date of change listed in the set beside the affected coin. This gave nice visibility of the specific changes. I lost 1775 points in this latest round of score adjustments and I do not have a glue as to what specifically changed to make me lose so many points. If the the date of change was listed beside the coin (as the last change was), it would really help to deal with the individual coins affected. PS: You guys really gutted the Franklin, Kennedy and Ike Sets. I am going to take mine off the board. These set scores are an insult. If this is the way that they are treated, I do not want to even list them. It is a total waste of tight money and time that could be spent doing other things other than collecting these coins for the Registry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
