The one interview that is published with JA, he states that a Gold CAC is a coin that should Green sticker at the next grade. That suggests it is...
They have a database, so they could get it right 100% of the time. :p It would be interesting to see; my guess is that they would be fairly...
Before seeing the reveal my thought was that it did sticker but I wouldn't sticker it (just something about the coin that didn't appeal to me)....
I haven't sent any directly, but from what I hear you will get a credit for future submissions for any that don't sticker (for a collector...
Nice! I agree with it likely being an album toner.
3 out of 4 is solid work; congrats @lordmarcovan
MS 61 was my vote before the reveal as there seemed to be a little too much chatter/hits/marks for higher but I don't mind seeing it in a 62...
No....5/5/4/5 (area under third pillar looks to be missing enough detail to prevent the 5fs)
It's probably still worth it as the fee should be more than covered if even one better date stickers. My one experience with a somewhat better...
I don't have any stats but my guess would be that they are tougher on better dates. Make a mistake on an 1881-S MS 63 Morgan and it's not the...
I've seen estimates of 40-50% but it depends on the series. Gold is in the single digits while common date Morgans, Mercs, Buffalos, and Franklins...
I got 8 correct. A few I gave the benefit of doubt but CAC did not, one I was just too optimistic on (the Gold Double Eagle), and a few I thought...
They sold the Proof and Unc SBA coins by themselves. The 1979-1981 versions finally ran out and the Mint struck more late in 1999. It was well...
There certainly is something cool about looking at a proof coin. I stopped buying the sets from the US Mint (for the same reasons as already...
No one can reply on for sale posts (besides mods). If you want to buy something, you have to send that person a message on here. That's the way it...
I'm not so sure that it's understandable. It takes them a month to just open and log items. Then it's at least a few more months to grade. I'm...
I like the upgrade; congrats!
One of my favorite series. :D https://www.cointalk.com/threads/kazakhstan-silver-tantalum-space-series.366359/ [IMG]
I agree completely. I just meant there is a bias (whether or not CAC admits it) towards sticking with the original opinion.
CAC does keep an internal database of coins that failed. While they do give it another look, the chances aren't great of a sticker on the second...
