- Hi
I was hoping that it might be possible to view sets which include raw coins, even if they don't get denoted in the leaderboard. Say if we click see leaderboard, it could show non-competing sets, as well.Hi I was hoping that it might be possible to view sets which include raw coins, even if they don't get denoted in the leaderboard.

- Is it possible the points on some world sets could be adjusted some?
Example here, in a date set, i have 3 eligible coins for the 1912 spot. The 1912-H mint ones are a semi-key date, definitely tougher in higher grades, esp compared to standard no mintmark. This is something i noticed for very tough mintmarks, and very tough designated varieties. Maybe it's difficult to make these calls for someone not familiar with a series, but i'd appreciate a consideration of weighting these heavier. If US date sets also don't give more points to scarcer mint issues of a date, vs more common.easier ones, then this is moot.
Additionally, I am curious, does MyCollect generally not give more points to Red, and, a bit less so, to Red-Brown copper vs Brown? If these typically receive more points, could the world sets get a look at bringing these up to speed, but if that's not the case, in general here, then disregard this as well.
One other consideration i'd appreciate a reassessment of, is allocating more points to PCGS vs NGC, in most world coins (save Chinese, which leans into PCGS, like US does). I don't have a particular preference here, tbh i have seen both make major mistakes, but if anything, world sentiment overall prefers NGC. I'd be more content just seeing them evenly counted.Is it possible the points on some world sets could be adjusted some? Example here, in a date set, i have 3 eligible coins for the 1912 spot.

- If a coin gets a point value when they are added to your collection, could that value be displayed in the coin information in your inventory? Can there be a query that one could type in "1884-CC MS64PL" an see the point value?If a coin gets a point value when they are added to your collection, could that value be displayed in the coin information in your inventory?

- JFVanBurenIII As Winesteven mentioned we don’t give points on the coin, it is different in each set. Our point system is different than the others as PCGS has a more linear point system and NGC seems exponential. We tried to fall more in between. We do want (and need) to implement a What If type system here so users can see the point differences. It has been on our to do list for a while. We don’t carry points with the coin as some coins are worth different in different sets. Most the time they will have similar points but date sets are where you may see different points.[JFVanBurenIII] As [Winesteven] mentioned we don’t give points on the coin, it is different in each set.

- Should there be a way to create custom sets sized and label to a person goal. As of now there are only box of 20 or forty to set up a a goal ... what if someone wanted an odd number for a collecting goal? meaning that could identify a slot name and count to fit the goal ... otherwise when they reach 100% but less than 20 they show the wrong percent complete. Example ... a 19th century proof or MINT set might only be 12 or 14 coins ... not 20 coinsShould there be a way to create custom sets sized and label to a person goal.

- A rarely given plus grade you can trust. They should be rare. Gradeflation is a cancer, if you think your stickered coin is a plus send it for consideration. I believe you can specify minum grade. Eventually like high grade non stickers PCGS coins, that we assume by this point failed to sticker as they would be worth more, so it will be considered with a stickered plus coin not in a “CAC” holder with a plus grade. Sorry CAC and their stringent grading are doing the hobby a favor. They are protecting and enhancing value, trust and keeping people from overpaying for things like a plus grade ad a star. Soon people will be telling dealers yeah I’ll buy you stickered coin for plus grade money if you send it to CAC grading for crossover.A rarely given plus grade you can trust. They should be rare.

- Zach150 My guess for the reason for your observation is many plus graded coins are "deep" in client collections. Roughly half of my coins eligible for a plus grade have the plus (about half of those were bought with the plus, roughly the other half obtained the plus via Reconsideration). Keep in mind grades 61, 69 and 70 are ineligible for plus grades. I occasionally sell a plus graded coin if I happen to buy an upgrade, otherwise, they'll only get on the market when I sell (if I'm alive, that will be during 2030, when I sell my entire collection).[Zach150] My guess for the reason for your observation is many plus graded coins are "deep" in client collections.

- Zach150 There are some dealers that deal in mostly high-end coins. Mikes Coin Chest and Tangible Investments are 2, Barry Stuppler always has quality... I can't buy anything but they are great to drool over.[Zach150] There are some dealers that deal in mostly high-end coins.

- Todd, thank you so much for the quick response, on a Sunday no less. I'm already liking this forum site more than " the other one " I'm just trying to figure out what I need to move up a spot in the rankings. If possible could I ask the point difference between a PCGS coin and a PCGS with a green CAC ? If you can't say that's fine.

- Kia Yes, there should be a modern commemorative set. I fully expect over the next few days to receive plenty of feedback on the awards and we do our best to listen and respond to all the feedback. This is the first year for our awards and we will improve and grow it for next year. I made a decision after the initial list was made not to make changes. There are a couple sets that don’t have enough sets to warrant an award but I didn’t want to start making changes, start a back and forth and confuse users (or take awards away from those expecting one). Next year I will be sure the silver and the gold modern commemorative sets have awards.[Kia] Yes, there should be a modern commemorative set.

- ToddPollock I understand. It is impossible to award all of the sets that people might want. Modern commemoratives do not have a large following like they used to, and values of some have dropped, but anyone trying to find several of these in 70 grades will find out they are very scarce.[ToddPollock] I understand.

- Perhaps, but I would think collector demand is more popular with the Classic Silver Commems and Modern Silver Eagles. Just take a look at the number of participants in Classic Silver Commems and Silver Eagles compared to Modern Commems.

- Would it be possible to enable switching privacy settings on multiple /all coins at once? To add them to sets, i have hundreds of coins' privacy to change, it is a fairly slow process.
