To my knowledge, CAC has never publicized their exact pass/fail rate. Without this information, it is impossible to be precise, but those with...
From my collection: [IMG] If you'll go to their website, you'll easily find a list of the coins they will accept for review. Ikes were added a...
I wrote a check to CAC earlier today. :) You don't have to 100% agree with their determinations or business model to avail yourself of the...
Here's one I couldn't resist. I kept calling to me. :) [img]

Well, I hope the OP isn't the seller. When it comes to Peace dollars, the series is full of all sorts of strange things. Even though the 28-P...

Oh, I'll get a few more for sure like the Liberty Cap Cent and the Draped Bust Half Dime. The Bust Eagle is also one that I have a particular...
