http://cgi.ebay.com/1954-S-25C-NGC-..._Individual?hash=item45f12acfdc#ht_500wt_1182 This was a coin I was planning to snipe, and I tried to do some last second research on this blue CAC sticker. I came up with nothing, I had only ever heard of green and gold CAC stickers, and while the sticker looked real, I just didn't know. So, what is up with the blue sticker? Real? Fake? Rare?
Alright Doug Just wanted to make sure, my first thought was blue??? But I can see how a green sticker with a flash from a camera, or bright lights can make it come off as blue. Thanks
Time to adjust your monitor! Bean looks green to me -- and the cert. number checks out on CAC website.
CAC sticker! Is that something new? Grading on top of grading? Not really A coin guy, So sorry for the dumb question...LOL
Don't know if this is sarcasm or an actual question but here is the link to their website: http://www.caccoin.com/ Yes in a way, grading on top of grading... Just assuring that a coin is good for the grade, or is an undergraded coin and is a candidate for an upgrade (which would be a gold sticker)
I'm going to start a new service that evaluates CAC's evaluation of TPGs evaluations of the coin... then again, I think I'll just grade them for myself
No sarcasm, Just a question:hail: i do have a few coins in slabs but Like i said not really a coin guy, I have never seen that approach Or even new about it, Thats why iam here to learn about new things Thanks for the reply:thumb:
.....hmmmm, a blue CAC sticker. THAT wasn't supposed to be announced yet! that blue sticker trumps the gold one! :goof:
Say someone is winning an item on ebay currently at 50.00. But they have a max bid in of $60.00. Ok, so you enter your max bid into ebay at $100.00. Now that clears out their $60 and probably puts you currently winning at $62. But, now, they are losing and will probably keep bidding and bidding up to your max amount until they beat it. Because you've already entered it in. With a sniping program, you can enter the auction #, bid amount and time you want it to bid, (usually with 1-2 seconds left) and it will enter your max bid in at the last second. It's an all or nothing venture at that point. But, the guy sitting there winning at 50.00 and a max bid of 60.00, and the guy bidding at the last second with 75.00, don't have time or a chance to bid up the item and beat you. You can do this manually yourself if you want as well. But just requires sitting there at the computer when the auction is ending. If someone has a ridiculously high max bid in ebay already, which happens occasionally, it won't really help you. But most of the time, people don't enter their max bid in early because they don't want other people bidding it up. As things get bid up, people get used to the price and are always willing to pay a little more to beat the other guy. That's why most avoid it. Some people don't understand this about ebay yet.
So which is the better grade MS69 without a cac sticker or MS68 w/a CAC sticker or 68 DMPL without a CAC sticker or MS68* w/a CAC sticker or MS69 * without a cac sticker or just super-duper Gem Bu with fantastic rainbow toning and exceptional strike. It is all really pretty ludicrous, just another layer of profit. Have they found any counterfeir CAC stickers yet? I'm sure that is coming. It is about like buying a used car, It really only worth what you can sell it for no matter what. The lesser fool wins. Lack
