Do You Like the New NGC Registry?

I'm really not sure how many of you participate in the NGC Registry. I enjoy building sets there.

I'm also not sure if you guys have seen the new registry, announced here: https://www.ngccoin.com/boards/topi...y-available-now/?tab=comments#comment-9687412

I'm curious to hear how you guys like the new Registry, which you can see here: https://www.ngccoin.com/registry/competitive/

And, to give you an idea of what a set will look like, here is my Prooflike set: https://www.ngccoin.com/registry/competitive-sets/98228/

Geez where did you stumble upon the 1855 PL 1/2C? Do you happen to have a video of it somewhere?

And I like the new version. Although admittedly I didn't spend much time with the old version I wasn't a big fan.

 

I like the look of the new registry but I don't like editing from it. I still go back to the old site for any editing. Maybe I will get used to it.

By the way, do you know how to change the main registry photo?

 

There currently is not a way. I asked. They auto-select the picture from the coin with the highest number of points. I think eventually there will be a way to change it.

I got extremely lucky. Bought it on Heritage in 2010.

 

Some of my sets don't have a photo. Most, close to all, of my coins, have photos so they can't use that as an excuse.

 

I used to have 10-12 NGC Registry Sets.
When NGC stopped allowing PCGS entries to be scored I just deleted them all.

 

Wow...My set would be #1

As it is, mine is #8 on PCGS.
Anything could be better than the old NGC registry page... So I do like it better.

 

I like the changes. This reminds me I need to create some more sets for Austria and Hungary. Not much competition on there.

 

I quit when they stopped counting Pcgs coins too. Haven’t done anything with it in a couple years

 

They ticked a lot of folks off. Many removed their sets. Now I don't care about either registry.

 

Same here. I just don’t bother anymore. Became more of a dealer than collector too

 

Is there a reason why they aren't using the NGC pictures for coins that the owner hasn't uploaded better pictures for or is my browser just not loading them?

 

ooh it looks pretty darn good!!
Will they do it for the custom sets too?

 

Some time after I deleted all my Registry Sets I started creating Custom Sets.
Built one, pictures and all.
Then forgot about it.
I need to log into NGC and see what I did.
Can't remember.

 

Just went to NGC and they've changed things (not really a surprise).
But I can't find how to get into Custom Sets.
I'll have to work on it more later.

LATER

I got into the Custom Sets using the older format.
Surprise!!!
I've got 4 Custom Sets.

-- Braided Hair Half Cents (1849-1857)
-- Braided Hair Large Cents (1839-1857)
-- Shield 2-cent
-- Capped Bust Quarters-Reduced Size Varieties

 

Just played around with the new registry, its difficult but I'm learning! I like the fact that I can add NGC photos to some of the coins I don't have pics for at the time!

 

Lovely set

 

I didn’t like the change either, but it shouldn’t be a reason to remove one’s set. Existing PCGS coins still have a score. Not such a big deal.

Interestingly, when I open my set in the new NGC registry, it shows a PCGS coin as main registry photo ;-)

For US it's entirely different, but with world sets, PCGS coins shouldn't be counted with NGC in the registry. The grading for world is significantly tighter with NGC.

 

True. That was the reason NGC gave for the change.
