Where and in what book does it say eye appeal is part of the grading process? And who decides what eye appeal is? Coins can be accurately graded...
Eye appeal has nothing to do with cac sticker. The only two I would have expected to fail is the IHC and the 42 walker - based off the pictures....
I would tend to agree with you. I notice this more with the newer PCGS and NGC holders(actually any TPG) than in the old slabs. Having said that...

I agree with Kanga and cascade. I know there was someone that was selling a lot of dmpl and pl raw coins on ebay. Once you had one in hand the...
Well I did not read all 4 pages of responses - but I treat CAC about the same way as I do a tpg. Do I think the coin is graded correctly, do I...
