<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 2391426, member: 15929&quot;]I would not stoop so low as to proclaim the PCGS or NGC Set Registries &quot;infantile&quot; as I do believe that there are a lot of folks out there, both serious and some simply wealthy, that place a LOT of importance on their specific Set Registries. They spend a LOT of money on their sets and do not simply buy willy-nilly. They buy quality, high grade coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, there are other folks which do not.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the 2001 CnClad Proof Sets? These were commanding as much as $160 apiece simply for the Sacagawea Dollar. Again, rooted in the Set Registry with the hopes of that elusive PR70DCAM.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, this Set Registry business says one thing and it says it very strongly: The TPG Set Registries are Market Makers. This simply cannot be denied. Those registries which added value to my coins have also trashed the value of some of my coins but ........... that&#039;s the way the game is played. (Think 1950D Nickel)</p><p><br /></p><p>I have learned over the years that if I sit on some modern coin for too long..........that it becomes just another modern coin with little to no value. Again, that&#039;s simply the way the Coin Market works. It has ALWAYS worked this way and is not going to change.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Coin Market is a lot like selling Ice Cream Cones on a Sunny Day when you&#039;ve premade all the cones. The first few go relatively quickly but as the day progresses and the cones begin to look &quot;less inviting&quot;, the sales taper off until you end up giving them away.</p><p><br /></p><p>TIME will tell the exact same story with the 2014 and 2012 Proof Sets. Both Silver and CnClad.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
