[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 5126084, member: 73489"]Here's something that I came across on an old thread ATS last year that I wanted to explore. It concerned [B][COLOR=#b30000]Saint-Gaudens and MS65 CACs vs. MS66's.[/COLOR][/B] I'm not sure there's a typo here that is confusing me....or if I am just not understanding something peculiar to CACs or Saints: OK.....I'm OK up to the part about [I]"Imagine the storm...." [/I]where the author says that if 6% of Morgans/Quarters CAC'ed the collectors would revolt (but why ?). Then.... he/she says that this happened with Saints in the MS65-67 range. So....6% of all MS65-67 Saints got a CAC sticker. Then an analogy of Morgans/Iowa(?) vs. Saints at the MS65 level which he says isn't valid. Then....he says CAC has stickered 200 of the MS68 Morgans or 43%...that's a huge %.....but much less than the 3% rate for MS65-67 Saints referenced earlier (keep in mind this thread was from a few years ago, numbers may have changed). A reference to "statistical error" follows. [COLOR=#0000ff][B]My Confusion: [/B][/COLOR]in the first part the reference is to 6% of Saints getting a CAC sticker which he implies is too high (the Morgans and Quarter people would go nuts). But later he says that the 3% Saint CAC rate for MS65-67 (not 6% ?) is much lower than the 43% MS68 CAC Morgan rate. I'm not sure what the person is saying here or if there's some typos in the paragraph that are throwing me off (3% vs. 6%, what is "Iowa", and is the 3% or 6% rate for Saints too low or too high compared to Morgans, "Iowa", and Quarters). [B][I]Anybody figure out what point the author of that post/paragraph was trying to make ?[/I][/B][/QUOTE]
