So there's a certain competitiveness to it. But for most of us mortals we are content with our place on the food chain. <a href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/publishedset.aspx?s=69897&ac=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/publishedset.aspx?s=69897&ac=1" rel="nofollow">Here is my PCGS CBH registry set, for example.</a><a href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/publishedset.aspx?s=69897&ac=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgs.com/setregistry/publishedset.aspx?s=69897&ac=1" rel="nofollow"> </a>As for having pictures of your coins -- and making your set visible/public -- I like it, and all my sets are this way. But some folks, particularly those at the very top, don't. They have an odd need to alert the world about the grandness of their sets, while insisting on privacy about their actual content. As for the photo, WL, that's called a "True View", by PCGS. It is a purchasable option when you send in a coin for grading. The coin is shot raw, and with large resolution. The image quality is usually exceptional and hard to beat.Lance.  I had the license plate "AVOVOOM" on Porsches for a long time. In your rear view mirror it reads "MOOVOVA". LOL.[/QUOTE]
