Green CAC on coin and deserves it: 13
Green CAC on coin and doesn't deserve it: 10
Gold CAC on coin and deserves it: 1
Gold CAC on coin but should only be Green: 4
Gold CAC on coin but should not sticker:
Failed to sticker but deserves a sticker: 7

Unknown sticker status and deserves a sticker:3
Unknown sticker status and does not deserve a sticker:2


Note: if we don’t know the status of a coin before the reveal and more people say green CAC for a gold CAC coin, then it will go in the area of “Gold CAC on coin but should only be Green” ....see round 3 as the example case

Rd. 10 was 4-4...I interpreted that CircCam would consider it a no (based on a similar example), which swayed the overall vote to a lean towards no.
Rd. 13 was tied between green and gold at 4-4...I interpreted that geekpryde would consider it a gold

PCGS AU-50. Did it get a bean?

 

Looks good to me. Appropriate luster. Green.

 

Nice looking half. I'd say that it's graded too low; I would go AU55. I would guess it could have a very old cleaning but it did straight grade. Would going from AU50 to AU55 constitute a gold bean? I'll take a "longshot" and go green.

 

Very nice coin for an AU-50. I like the late die state. Nice photos also.

Yes to the bean.

 

I'll say YES to the GREEN
I see a few hits/marks and potentially something to the right of the nose (could just be the plastic from the holder or a smudge on the plastic), but all of that would be the reason why it wasn't a higher AU. As an AU 50 it seems solid.

 

No CAC on 1824 50c, obv badly tarnished looks corroded.

 

I'll say yes to a green bean. Nice looking, and probably undergraded.

 

I can see no reason why that would not get a bean from these pictures.

Beautiful coin, and yes to the bean.

 

Yes

 

Green on the CBH.

jom

 

Just for the record, I planted green beans today.

 

Most got it right.
