      "Best of the Registry" Winners 
    In addition, in each category the collector ranked number one with at a least 90% completion, or in the case of large set compositions, those sets with 200 or more coins registered in one set, will receive a "Best of the Registry" icon by his or her set listing in the registry.  Note that the completion requirement is waived when the judges review sets which contain especially rare coins. ("Best of the Registry" award certificates will be gladly printed and mailed at the winner's request.)

       PCGS Set Registry Coin Collecting Hall of Fame 
    To recognize exceptional All-Time Finest sets, a number all-time great sets will be inducted into the PCGS Set Registry Coin Collecting Hall of Fame. The contest winners and Hall of Fame inductees will be selected based on a vote of PCGS coin experts.

The deadline for the 2010 awards is Tuesday, June 30, 2010. All sets must be registered and updated no later than 5pm EST (2pm PST). Please plan ahead when sending potential set registry coins to PCGS for grading. We do not extend the deadline for any reason.
