AJ, This is one of the best posts I have seen on this forum. I agree 100% with everything in this post. If collectors approached coin...
Yes I would. I have several AT coins. I also have many, many questionably toned coins. I am much more tolerant of questionable toning than most...
IMO, the CAC's real market should be the conditional rarities. If you have a coin that is valued at $500 in MS65 and $375 in MS64, the CAC...
I hear what you are saying Richie but I always wonder even when looking at the very best photos. Was this photo taken in such a way that it...
I did not store this coin as I just purchased it. However, I do know the storage conditions of the coin over that last few years and can prove...
Dan The phenomenon that you are using as an indicator of AT works well with bag toned Morgan Dollars. However, I have found that toning that...
As a poker player, I think that design would have been the best. A train, a coin, and two aces---WOW!
What exactly screams AT to you. Just curious.

Care to elaborate on that statement. Since the inception of the CAC, several of the most knowledgeable collectors on the NGC forums have...
Wow, That might be the best training photo I have ever seen. It is an AU53 coin with the high points clearly visibly worn. (no need to circle...
Maybe we should put a redneck in charge of the US Mint. Anything would be better than the garbage they spew out each year!:p
Nothing as long as they can also hack into CAC's database and add the serial number of the coin they are affixing the sticker to. You can check...
The colorized state quarters are hideous but as a lover of rainbow toned coins, I don't see anything wrong with the mint adding color to coins....
I didn't want to post an update this soon, but my fears are becoming a reality. The coin is currently at $950 ($1,092 w/ BP) and there are two...
We are at post number 15 in this thread and not one person has posted in support of the CAC. Well here it is. I like TPG's and I like the CAC...
With all due respect, I don't think your post is very accurate. First, the TPG does profit by net grading because they incentivize people with...
I will agree that we approach coin collecting in very different ways. However, I doubt that you have the skill to make passable AT coins in your...
