  1. I would like to see a competitive U.S. One Dollar Gold (1849-1889) Circulation type set for the three types of gold Dollars. There are three basic designs/types of Gold Dollars 1849-1889. The years for the types are: Type 1 1849-1854; Type 2 1854-1856; Type 3 1856-1889. These coins were produced at 5 mints i.e., Philadelphia, San Francisco, New Orleans, Charlotte and Dahlonga. The three type coins could come from any mint. If the five mint issues, the Charlotte and Dahlonga are rare and expensive. As such I have not specified this to be a Mintmark set. I believe this would an affordable competitive category which would increase interest and competition in a much "underappreciated" issue. My NGC graded gold dollars are: Type 1, 1853-0 # 5748788-001 Type 2, 1854 # 4769073 Type 3, 1858 # 4475965-004 Robaire
  2. Good Morning Ali This "Bart" Bartanowicz from Venice (NGC Alias Robaire). I was disappointed but not heart broken that you all rejected my proposal to add the 1900 O/CC to the Carson City Set as a non-competitive coin. I do have the coin in my Morgan Dollar (one per mint set). I wasn't really interested in Registry points but just thought that it would make a nice talking point for CC collectors. Despite the rejection I still like NGC and I am appreciative of all the work you do for the hobby. Take care and best wishes to all. Bart
  3. I take my own photo/images as well as download images of coins that I have purchased. Most downloaded images are touted as high resolution but I see a wide range in quality from excellent to so-so. NGC images and the "other" major grading service images and auction houses are of course excellent but others are in the "so-so" not so great category. The question is what are the high resultion parameters.
