<p>[QUOTE="jaceravone, post: 835598, member: 9474"]In 2009, PCGS had designated 3 varieties for the SAC. Weak Edge, Partial Edge and No Edge. Weak Edges are the most common from Philly and will run anywhere from $40-100 depending on whether it is position A or B and how high the grade. 2009D weak edges are a bit more scarce and do command a little bit more money. Partial edges are out there, but they are very few as well and tend to command a bit more money as well. I have not seen any no edge SACs for sale. </p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I think this is all BS and that someone convinced someone high up at PCGS to classify these and create a collector hysteria. Of course it is working as you can see that these coins do go for quite a bit of money.

If you are looking at the obverse of the coin and the edge letter is upside down then that is what they call POS A. Obviously, the opposite applies if the lettering is right side up then it is called POS B. Position matters as typically one is harder to find than the other. Then, remember, a coins value in this particular series is basically determined by the condition of the coin and the scarcity of that grade. A raw coin is going to be much less valuable than a graded coin and once the coin is graded then the higher the grade, the more valuable the coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps a bit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
