My Collection allows you to add coins you own in an organized catalog for personal use or to compete in the Registry. CAC Registry allows you to add CAC, PCGS, and NGC graded coins to your collection. Please note that the default viewing of the “My Collection” page will show all items unless there are filters applied. You can click on the up and down arrows next to the column labels (Cert, Service, Grade, etc.) to sort your collection. The default setting will show 50 items per page, and that can be adjusted by clicking the box with a numerical drop-down menu.
There are multiple ways to view your collection. From the website home, you can click my account and then select “My Collection” from the drop-down menu. You can also navigate to “My Collection” from the CAC Registry Home page by scrolling down and clicking on the first button with the number of coins and “My Collection” labeled below.
How to Add Coins to “My Collection” #
Select “Add Item” next to the “Filters” button below “My Collection” heading.
Add to “My Collection” Using a Photo #
Once you’ve selected “Add Item,” you have several ways to make the addition of a coin to your collection seamless and easy. The easiest way to add an item in a holder to your collection would be to take or upload a photo of the barcode on the slab. This can be done by clicking on the button “Take a photo” and selecting “Use Photo” after taking or uploading the image of the barcode.
The barcode will fill out several of the missing fields including the grading service, cert #, grade, and catalog item information. If it’s a CAC coin, you will have the option to download the coin’s unique images from the CAC site and choose which you would like to have displayed.
You will have the ability to change the order in which the images are displayed. Please note that the first image in the “Images” box will be the one shown on the Registry. Use the arrow cross to click and drag the images in the order you would like them displayed. The trash can icon allows you to delete an image from the collection item. The downwards arrow icon gives you the option to download the image file to your device, and the magnifying glass opens the image in a new window for a detailed preview.
Add to “My Collection” by Entering a Cert Number #
Another easy way to add an item to your collection is to select the grading service of the slabbed coin and enter the cert number found on the label. The system will then pull the rest of the coin’s information from the cert number provided on the label. Always make sure to doublecheck that the auto-filled fields, such as grade and item, are filled in correctly by the system. Please remember to toggle the “Details Coin” and “Mint Error” buttons if the certificate number does not successfully pull this information. Note that the default option under “Additional Details” is to exclude the item from the registry. Toggle this setting to your preference.
If the coin is not a CAC coin, you will need to take or upload your own images of the coin by selecting “Browse” in the bottom left corner. Always make sure to select “Save Item” in the bottom right corner to successfully save and add an item to your collection. Once you finish adding an item and hit save, our system will prompt you to add another item to your collection. If you’re all done, you may select the “Cancel” button next to “save item” in the bottom right.
There is a third way to add items to the “My Collection” page. Please visit the “How to Import & Export ‘My Collection’ document for assistance with this feature.
