Lovingly referred to as Green Beaned coins - coins examined by CAC
and approved for the Slab's stated grade - or - "solid for the grade".

Many coins that have been CAC'd, sell for substantially more.

 

Ok - lets get some images up......

 

Old habits are hard to kick eh?

You have been tearing it up with NEWPs! Congrats!

By the way, I saw a dealer has two 1916-S broadstuck dimes. One XF40 and one MS63 both in NGC holders though.

 

Thanks Justin, I own one in PCGS 58

 

Oh, yeah, my newer Pride and Joy...





Only a 64 but has the look of a 67

 

Forgot to include my 1893 Phila Dime ...

First - The Proof...


Next - The MS...

 

how much was that?

"how much was that ?"..................seriously ?.......................
It was more than I wanted to spend and over $500 more than it sold at
auction when it last crossed the block.

Its a coin that is in all seriousness - a once in a life time find. I have never
seen another as nice looking - it takes your breath away when you first look at it.

 

a lot.

 

That '95 is beautiful.

 

How much is irrelevant. That coin has no price tag IMHO. I know how bland some auction house images can be and I can tell that that coin would be a monster in hand. Coins like that just don't come around often. Just like Mike's 97-S half. That thing look semi-pl in the auction photo, but in hand the PL just popped out at you. Such a gorgeous coin.

maybe someday i will see that 95 when he comes back up the coast line.

 

LP is correct - its irrelevant - but I was mistaken - I paid $1500 over Grey Sheet -
I'm going to send it in to PCGS for regrade - Secure Holder - and hope for a 65+
as I don't think they'll bump it much higher than that. I have found many 64's that
belonged in 65 holders and have crossed them as such - the last one came back 65+.

 

Here is my newest. She isn't pretty but a 1901 s is still a 1901 s

 

I just got this one back from CAC with a gold sticker.

 

What kind of acid brings out the MM on silver?

 

I don't think any does. I think that someone either attempted it or ANACS got it wrong. Though it definitely looks like acid to me too. I guess you can always experiment with some junk coins and hope for the best.
