Fields read: coin description (e.g. '1922-S $1'), cert, grade, PCGS # (deterministic pcgs_number, links CoinFacts), price-guide value (metadata only, never a sale), date/mintmark, denomination, mintage, region, holder type, the cert image and the on-page 'Population' / 'Pop Higher' counts (partial population_report, population_scope=grade_and_higher, sourceUrl = the linked /pop/pcgsnolookup page). Deliberately NOT fetched: PCGS Auction Prices Realized, the Set Registry and the public PCGS API (api.pcgs.com requires an account token — a gated alternative for the future). A not-found cert yields zero records.",
