Looks like the Perth collection (a Canadian collector) decided to finally register and publish their set of PCGS Newfoundland 1c coins. Of course, they pole-vaulted into the finest collection ever... Absolutely beautiful... http://www.pcgs.com/SetRegistry/pub...spx?s=135067"Discovery follows discovery, each both raising and answering questions, each ending a long search, and each providing the new instruments for a new search." -- J.

The Perth Collection is a person? I always assumed it was a conservation group or museum. He (she?) has one amazing collection!

A superb collection to match his other outstanding Registry Sets. The Perth collection has thirteen sets registered with PCGS. If you want to view Canadian numismatic fine art at its best go to the PCGS website and look up the Perth collection of Registry sets.

Quote: The Perth Collection is a person? Yes, he is. He often joins us at a local pub at coin shows and usually pulls out a PCGS box from his registry set.... At the last Coin Expo, we looked at Edward 5c silver coins from the Perth Collection.... A very nice guy, who enjoys a few pints like the rest of us!! I do have one coin - my 1938 NFLD 1-cent, that this person said, "I think it is better than mine"... not something heard often from him!! http://www.pcgs.com/cert/28685214

English lacks a sufficient adjective to describe the wonder of this set.
