<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 2624278, member: 22331&quot;]Correct me if I misunderstand. It is my understanding that the Green CAC denotes that the affixed coin meets the average standard for that TPG, not for an industry standard (e.g. A.N.A. published Technical, etc), or a standard of their competitor.</p><p><br /></p><p>In a past thread discussing the differences between the differing TPG, I posted a group of the 4 &quot;premier&quot; TPG, all of the same type/grade/date. The coins were classic Gold where it&#039;s generally easier to view the technical differences for a given type/grade/date. I selected the PCGS coin which had a Green CAC, which in my opinion was relatively attrocious to the other 3 coins certified by differing TPG. I believed the post easily showed the grading disparities, but was believed to correctly have a Green CAC bean for that TPG.</p><p><br /></p><p>The believed most properly technical graded coin of the group was certified by ICG, which I&#039;m to understand, isn&#039;t allowed to have a CAC &quot;bean&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m a Neophyte in the new grading systems, because I&#039;ve been collected since before TPG existed, but have many of the old ANACS and ACG graded coins which I believed were technically properly graded. In a current study, several of these old Gold coins have been resubmitted to the supposed Creme De La Creme TPG, and have received significant upgrades above their initial assigned grades. I personally believe something is evidenced, as indicated in the referenced article, by my exercises.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
