About This Set: This my master set of PCGS graded patterns. Over all my focus has been to acquire type sets of different pattern obverse and reverse die combination with minimal focus on piece composition. I focused on many sub set of patterns like samples of the 1869 and 1870 Standard silver to display Obv/Rev die combinations, Liberty Head (Barber Head) designs by design type and Washington and Coronet bust pieces. My effort has not focus on highest grade but general type of designs with nice eye appeal. My collection is now over 350 pieces that includes almost 100 NGC graded patterns. As I cannot list the NGC pieces in the PCGS registry for public viewing, I turned to the NGC site where their custom (none competitive) registry can be build using both NGC and PCGS. If interested, below are the links to my NGC registry sets of patterns.
