From CAC's website: WHAT THE CAC STICKER MEANS: • Verified. Your coin has been verified as meeting the standard for strict quality within its...
If that's the case, then you and the many, many, people rely on CAC's opinion because you don't trust the opinion of the TPGs. Totally...
I'll give you that, I didn't see the 2004 there. My bad! Point out where I said I don't like either. All I said was it's money wasted.

You obviously haven't seen a dentist in a long time if you believe that. Most will try and convince a patient a root canal is needed, when an...
Fine chew it all you want, it still is an opinion carrying no more, or less, weight than that of any collector or dealer experienced in grading coins.
