    I had some in-hand the other day. They stack wonderfully and stay together well. Edges are slightly finned to make that happen. Feels like glass to the touch. I like it. Does not fit in a PCGS box.

    Not a bad looking slab at all. Does the mean we’ll now need three types of slab boxes?

    No NFC chip though, which is the most reliable way to prevent counterfeiting. Molds for the plastic are probably already being created in China.

    As usual, you are batting 100 in the not correct column.

    It fits in the NGC box.

    It does have a chip. There are lots of security features.

    Weird that is doesn't fit in a PCGS box, since I am fairly certain I read in the initial information to members that it WOULD fit. Perhaps they only meant, would stack with PCGS slabs? o_O

    Decent looking slab. I will have to find an excuse to get one into the collection even though I don't really buy coins any longer.

    They stack nicely with PCGS coins, but they could not follow thru on the intent to fit into PCGS boxes. The security and durability of the holder took precedence.

    My bad. I thought the location would be marked. Has anyone had a try at reading it?

    Everything your have "thought" and incorrectly shared on CT about CAC/CACG has been "bad", so don't change now.

    A suggestion: how about YOU have a try at reading it, so you can come back and share more silly incorrect statements that I can point out are incorrect.

    Why is everyone so mad? Did I miss some controversy? I’ve not been here in a long time, but I know CalCol as I met him at the Anaheim ANA years ago. A friendly guy… and I can’t picture him speaking disrespectfully to anyone. We are all wrong sometimes. It happens. Here’s a pic from that show. Me, Chris Simpson, and calcol.

    I remember that show well … mostly because of the great people I met. I’m trying to remember who took that pic for us. Maybe Charmy Harker (the Penny Lady)?

    Sometimes I see a coin coming up for auction that was sold at auction at that show. And when I see the price it went for then, I smack my head and wonder why I didn’t bid.

    Very attractive looking slab but the finned edges look very prone to damage / chipping.

    Why do you think "everyone" is mad? He has been continuously and without fail sharing disinformation. I have enjoyed correcting his incorrect statements, so collectors are not misled. I t has nothing to do with personal awareness of a person. It has everything to do with stating incorrect information that other collectors may think is correct....over and over and over....and continuing to do so even after being corrected. There are many new hobbyists that would think the disinformation is true, and the least that should be done is to be as clear as, and as repetitively as necessary, possible to correct the misinformation.

    I am aware who he is. I am aware who you are. You must have missed his previous statements on the subject.

    It has been "third party" tested. Navigate to CAC forum and watch video. It is funny, actually.
