<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brg5658, post: 1409089, member: 29751&quot;]Just a few comments:</p><p><br /></p><p>Firstly, kudos to you for again creating a beautiful website and in having stellar taste in presentation, layout, and content.&nbsp; It was a complete joy for my eyes to peruse the coins you have listed.&nbsp; They are stunning and truly unique coins with their &quot;toning&quot; fingerprints.&nbsp; This &quot;positives&quot; section is short as compared to the list below, but this is because the site is professional and stellar.&nbsp; Really brilliant idea!</p><p><br /></p><p>---------------------------------------------------</p><p>Now for criticisms / suggestions:</p><p><br /></p><p>1.&nbsp; You have listed out a total of 6 goals for the website.&nbsp; I feel that goals 1 and 2 massively limit your ability to claim any &quot;overall&quot; ranking of coins in the market.&nbsp; Though, I feel you have also admitted this shortcoming.&nbsp; As such, I feel your site should be named &quot;100 Greatest PCGS Graded Mirror Proof Lincoln Cents&quot;.&nbsp; There are innumerable cents in NGC holders, and even more in albums and/or still in their packaging.&nbsp; As to point 2, requiring that every cent in the listing be photographed by the PCGS TrueView method even further limits the scope of the website.</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; Be careful of what you are &quot;summarizing&quot; on the Statistics page.&nbsp; Reporting complete PCGS populations on non-PCGS sites requires permission.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t have such permission, you could be setting yourself up for legal issues.</p><p><br /></p><p>3.&nbsp; As a professional statistician for a living, I question the stability of your &quot;flash index&quot;.&nbsp; Are you having 5-6 people independently rank the coins on these attributes based on images and then averaging? Or is this simply your opinion?&nbsp; Either way is fine, but one of the first questions I ask myself is &quot;most beautiful according to whom?&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>4.&nbsp; I find your website to be insulting to those of us who don&#039;t buy into the perception that PCGS is the &quot;best and greatest&quot; out there.&nbsp; I have seen obviously AT coins in PCGS holders, just as I have seen them in NGC holders.&nbsp; Claiming one is better than another for the top 2 TPGs is like debating that Coke is better than Pepsi (or vice versa).&nbsp; I think an appropriate naming of the site with PCGS in the title would attenuate this presumptuous and somewhat elitist perception.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best of luck,</p><p>-Brandon[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
