<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 26216350, member: 101855&quot;]The registries have two flaws. First, there are over graded coins in slabs. That makes these sets look better than they are. Second, there are some collectors who wish to remain anonymous. They don’t want to reveal their holdings for various reasons.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have some highly rated collections of the Classic Head $2.50 (1834 to 1839) and $5.00 (1834 to 1838) gold pieces. I know darn well there are better sets than what I’m showing, yet I’m rated as #1 on the NGC registry for one of the sets and even high up on the PCGS for the quarter eagles.</p><p><br /></p><p>You might get an ego boost by being high on a registry, but don’t kid yourself. There is usually better stuff out there than what you have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
