<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sonlarson, post: 1784189, member: 15488&quot;]Yesterday, while at the Fort Worth Coin show, my son asked me what was the difference between a MS62 and MS65 was. After explaining the grading system to him he seemed a little more interested and started searching for a MS70 coin. Then I had to explain why a MS70 ASE was no big deal. While we were walking the tables I came to a screeching halt! One of the dealers had a PCGS MS66 RB 1909s VBD Lincoln Cent with a Green CAC sticker. I pointed it out to my son and made a comment that that is what he could buy for me for Christmas. As I was explaining the sticker to him the dealer took it out of the case and handed it to me! Whoa! That was nice. He commented that he could not see why it was RB and not R. Beautiful coin. I told him that you couldn&#039;t ague the grade since it had the Green sticker on it, but it was a shame it didn&#039;t get the Gold. He ask me what the Gold sticker was so I explained it to him. The dealer, not my son! The dealer, or his attendant didn&#039;t know about the Gold sticker.</p><p>Did I miss something? I was under the impression that the Green meant the coin was solid for the grade and the Gold was for a coin on the high end and possibly under-graded.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
