Message:: [QUOTE="DW-coins, post: 1311168, member: 33380"]CAC is, IMO, the future of the coin market. Each and every year less and less collectors attend coin shows and more coins are purchased on-line. So having a third set of eyes has become an important part of the industry since collectors cannot look at the coins in hand as they could in the past. Now with CAC (and PCGS's "plus" program) you have a 3rd party verification of a coins quality within that particular grade. I know I sell CAC certified coins much faster and at a premium to non-certified coins, so the market is certainly there. I see a the day coming soon in which the coin market is bifurcated between CAC/"plus" coins and non-CAC/"plus" coins, each with their own valuations and CDN will be tracking CAC/"plus" coins separately from non-CAC/"plus" coins. In a very real way it has expanding the Sheldon grading scale from 1-70 to 1-140.[/QUOTE]
