<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jester3681, post: 1802630, member: 53130&quot;]PCGS/NGC &quot;+&quot; means just what you said - the coin falls between grades.&nbsp; Another explanation I&#039;ve seen is that the obverse is clearly one and the the reverse is clearly the next (or visa versa) so they split the difference with the &quot;+&quot; grade.</p><p><br /></p><p>NGC star ratings are reserved for coins with exceptional eye appeal - great toning, etc.&nbsp; Yes this is part of grading, but the star designation cements it as being a lovely coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>CAC is a third party grader that more or less checks the other TPGs.&nbsp; A CAC green decal means that they independently agree with the grade given.&nbsp; A gold decal means that they believe that the coin is undergraded.&nbsp; CAC is more or less a second opinion, so when you buy or sell a coin, you can be confident in the grade presented.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
