 The following is a press release from NGCOur newest enhancement to the NGC Registry allows members to customize their view and elect to participate in an exclusive NGC environment. If you use the popular NGC Registry to showcase your collection you may have already noticed some of the exciting changes to its look and feel. Besides a new Registry logo, we have made it easier and faster to filter sets by Most Viewed, Recently Updated, Highest Scoring and more. NGC Registry members can also customize their view and elect to participate in an exclusive NGC environment. Many collectors of NGC certified coins have asked to compete only against other collectors of NGC graded coins. Now you can select "NGC Coins" and the sets you see will be scored based solely on the NGC certified coins that they include. All sets and coins will appear in both views, and the NGC Registry rules will remain the same. In the "All Coins" view PCGS certified coins will continue to receive their full point values. There are no plans to remove PCGS certified US coins from the NGC Registry, but we wanted to offer a new option for collectors who want to participate in an Exclusive NGC Registry.

I saw that announcement, went and took a look. While I enjoy being able to list both top tier slabbed coins in my Registry sets it was interesting to see my ranking change with this perspective. Kudo's to NCG for providing this option.

In my opinion the NGC and PCGS Registry sets is what has made them the number 1 and number 2 in the business. I feel the only way PCGS keeps their graded coins at the highest resale level is because they only allow PCGS coins in their registry sets, NGC however allows NGC and PCGS in theirs. If it werent for the Registry sets, no one would care if they had the highest graded coin of a particular date/mm/variety or whatever because the higher the grade the more points. As much as we hate to admit it, Humans are very competitive and some more than others and when you add competition to the fold of a hobby that already has people with deep pockets playing you will get people paying stupid money for a coin that is the only one graded that high so they can include it in their registry set so no one will be able to have the same type of coin receive higher points than theirs does

I like both companies for what they offer, I'm really digging the NGC app that allows you to scan a coin and it will pull up pics and info and auctions about upcoming coins just like it

since any of you can probably grab a look, would you tell me where the 620 point 1954 Ross dime in NGC MS67 I have ranks in the registry rankings? How many "finer"?
please and thank you

One way you can check on that without being a member is just search and see if you can find any 68 or higher for that coin. If you do use the NGC Cert Verify feature and it will tell you how many that grade has

thanks basebal
The MS67 1954P NGC = 187 total
that's a WHOLE lot 'o 67s
i had wanted to know, with 620 points, where is mine in that 187?
#23? #4? #1? #187?
just curious and I didnt want to spend $40 to find out or worse, spend money to find out that info is not readily available

I dont believe that they individually rank them for the grade. I think any of the 67s would have been 620 points unless they had the star or in the case of PCGS the + but then its really a 67+ and not a 67

interestingly enough I have a 1956 MS67 NGC that was allocated 357 points in their registry
so 2 yrs newer is worth 300 less points and all 1956 are only 357 points I guess
i am calling NGC today
i'll post later what they say

My guess would be that the 56 MS-67 is worth 300 points less than the 1954 because there are probably a lot more of them. the harder it is to get a coin in a particular grade the more points it is worth.

i spoke to Ally at NGC in the registry department. all of the above stated is accurate for their registry value system:
all denominations within the same mintage year will receive the same points within that grade, so yes, ALL 1954 MS67s are worth 620 points. The ONLY time that varies is when there are varieties involved and the slab has been attributed as an added service for the "official record keeping" in the market
one year may be worth more or less dependent upon pop counts, so, the 1954, total pop at MS67 = 187...1956 total pop at MS67 = 650...obvious difference hence the 300 point swing in the registry
this was a very educational opportunity and I am thankful for it. thanks to all of you for the added insight.
