<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 2287226, member: 15309"]While it is impossible to compete with the big money and extremely difficult to break into the top 3 spots in any series, there are other ways to compete in the Registry.

My Jefferson Nickel set (1938-1964) is currently ranked #5 in the NGC Registry and I am far behind the leaders.
