<p>[QUOTE=&quot;iGradeMS70, post: 1648569, member: 29109&quot;]If you think they&#039;re selling for a lot now, check out much they were bringing around this time last year... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie11" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>With the pop of the &quot;gold&quot; stickers on the rise, the premiums they&#039;re commanding are steadily declining.</p><p><br /></p><p>Although, I imagine the sticker will always command <i>some</i> kind of premium for the simple fact that it indicates an under-graded coin by so-called &quot;the most accurate&quot; standards. But always remember, these stickers suggest a conservatively-graded coin by <i>CAC&#039;s</i> coin-grading standards - there is no guarantee that if a coin were resubmitted to the third-party grader (PCGS, NGC) that it&#039;d receive an up-grade.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>For example; I&#039;ve heard stories of people cracking coins out of slabs that received a &quot;green&quot; sticker at CAC and up-graded when resubmitted. I&#039;ve also heard stories of people cracking coins out of slabs that received a &quot;gold&quot; sticker at CAC and either crossed at-grade or down-graded. </p><p><br /></p><p>What this should tell you is that each third-party has there own standard of grading, and just because one says a coin is &quot;better&quot;, that doesn&#039;t mean the one across the street will agree.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
