New CAC holder design released

Looks like a cheap basement slab reminiscent of NTC. I was hoping for something better, but alas, I’m rather disappointed.

Is LEGACY referring to Legacy Numismatics ?

 

I’m not sure. I know CAC has partnered with multiple people on this venture.

 

Actually.... I think I kind of like it. It forces more focus on the coin and less focus on the plastic to me.

 

The label color is kind of bland.

 

Uninspired but WTH.

 

The holder is really ugly. None of the class of PCGS and NGC.

 

Where did you find that?

That is distinctly unattractive. I also can't really tell which green parts are from the slab, and what is a poorly-rendered image of the background. I really hope the slab itself isn't green, because that distracts from any coin.

It also looks quite a bit like the PCGS slab... did someone do a mockup of what they think it might look like, based on a PCGS slab?

 

Not what I expected.

 

The Green Bean sticker has more appeal. That color for the label is terrible.

 

The coin is crooked.

 

You guys kill me........how much innovative design can be nurtured into a plastic square/rectangle?

 

If you spend enough R&D a lot.

 

Heck, I don't think JA is gonna overthink the design of a clear plastic rectangle, just what's going into it.

 

Did he not overthink this… Using PCGS truview plate coin images for use in his “sample slab” images?? Pretty lame if you can’t even use your own images.

 

What can I say........he borrowed some photogs and threw it together over the weekend. He's a much better grader, though.

 

I like it, the clear prongs were the right choice. Its about the same size as a PCGS slab too so you can still use those boxes for storage. I do wish the ones that will have stickers had the sticker on the front though.

The Legacy ones are the previously stickered coins that were crossed over.

 

I’m with Randy. Attention goes to the coin where it belongs.
