<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bigjpst, post: 1404952, member: 21015&quot;]I think it&#039;s possible that some people fail to make the connection that coins that are at the high end of the grade assigned on the slab,or under-graded will bring premiums(to knowledgeable collectors and dealers) over coins that are at the bottom of the grade assigned or just plain ugly. Old rattler holders, NGC fatty holders and even some old small Anacs graded coins are a perfect example. People assume that grading standards were more strict back when these holders were used, so people will pay more for them in the hopes that they will upgrade in the future or at least continue to command a small premium over their newly graded counterparts.</p><p>&nbsp;CAC coins bring more money, not only because they have a little green sticker on them, but because they are generally nice coins for their grade. The only thing the CAC sticker does is point out the coins that other people felt were exceptional and JA concurred. You should still make the decision for yourself whether or not the coin deserves the premium. But price guides are just a guide. And dealers will charge more for exceptional coins with or without a sticker.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
