<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 2297854, member: 22331&quot;]Some of the coins I regularly collect are mint state scarce date St. Gaudens Double Eagles. I was at a coin show last week-end where a dealer had a couple cac scarce date St. Gaudens. I looked at the NGC MS62 coins which shouldn&#039;t have graded MS61 with the severe bag marking and rub. I asked him what premium he gets with the &quot;bean&quot;. He said a 10% premium is regularly requested and received. The premium on the each of the 2 coins was $2000. I&#039;ve dealt with him for decades, and knew that he wasn&#039;t exaggerating. I told him I may be able to deliver some &quot;bargains&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I purchased another scarce undergraded date from him that I knew with proper &quot;conservation&quot; should realize a 2 grade advance. It will soon go to PCGS, and then to CAC with several other coins. CAC appears to be a &quot;cash cow&quot; for many dealers, but from my experience they generally aren&#039;t a representation of above average grade coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
