[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 5046108, member: 73489"][I]Are there coins -- Saints a few years ago comes to mind -- where a lower-graded CAC sells for MORE than a higher-graded non-CAC (i.e., MS65 CAC Saint > MS66 Saint) on a regular basis ?[/I] [B][I]Or was that just an anomaly ?[/I][/B] Yes, I have some OGH's but they aren't The Rattler or The Dot Matrix ones from the 1980's....but people complimented me on them. What I found interesting was that veterans like GDJMSP state that the era of lax grading began in 2004 (maybe 2003, I forget)....I don't disagree, I'm just surprised that the grading didn't get lax during the Bubble Years or Post-Bubble Years of the 1990's when the TPGs exploded in popularity.
