PCGS Set Registry Update
The one centesimo coin shown above displays the fierce chieftan Ubarragá Maniá Tigrí or Urracá. In 1520, Spaniards waged war on the indigenous people of present-day Panama during their quest for gold and wanted to discuss peace with Urracá. They duped him and imprisoned the chief. He escaped, fled to the mountains, and waged guerilla warfare against the conquistadors until his death in 1531. Panama is well represented on the PCGS Set Registry, where a scarce nine-coin set we recently listed is the 1984 Panamanian Proof Set. Many sets from Panama have been listed for our members to build. Please feel free to browse the PCGS Set Registry when you have a chance, and you may find there is a set for almost anyone to pursue. The PCGS Set Registry offers many different sets from all over the world and specialty sets for advanced collectors. We appreciate your continued patronage. All the best in building your sets, and happy collecting, folks!
