The people at the PCGS set registry have just fixed the "One dollar with commemoratives set" by removing the non-standard size Perth Mint coins. This is one of the largest Australian sets.

Well done Peter, got some nice coins in some of your sets :good:

Disappointing they don't mention mint marts, privy marks and counter stamps. My set is a lot more complete.

Nicely done Peter :good:
This would have taken an awful lot of work , expense and time.
Some really nice grades and hard to get that high.
Bloody awesome effort Mate.

After the recent additions to the penny set (the double dots, 1920 dot above top scroll and 1942 Bombay no mintmark), there is now one set that is complete. The dot above top scroll is very tough as a gradable coin and PCGS have graded just two examples:

Latest addition to the halfpenny set is the 1942 Bombay long reverse denticles several weeks ago.  These are a little easier to find and a number have been graded in mint state:

I rate well down the list on the penny set.
Timbertop's sets are spectacular, as are Fenton's.
All the others are really good too. You have to admire the effort that goes into putting these collections together.

On the PCGS Set Registry main page:

"The deadline for adding and updating your sets is Monday, June 30, 2014, 5pm EST/2pm PST. Any new sets or edits to existing sets must be published before the deadline. For details please refer to the PCGS Set Registry News page."

This is the time of year when we see some nice sets appear out of the woodwork and "the_M" update his sets.

Here's a link to the Australian sets;

If you have even just a few PCGS graded coins I'd encourage you to join the set registry and put your sets online. It's enjoyable to watch your set grow and its also a useful way to maintain your coin inventory, with the added advantage that you can include pictures of your coins.

The PCGS registry is excellent.
I'm a staunch collector of raw coins but I've caught the registry bug recently.
I will never make it to number 1 but its a lot of fun to try to compete with the big guys...

[ausproofs]

I agree, It is a fun way to collect coins... very infectious ! once in you are hooked for life !

As Echidna said I will never be able to compete with the big guys up there.. Timbertop and M have the best and they are very hard to beat...
