<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DMPL_dingo, post: 5412297, member: 75000&quot;]I&#039;m sorry, but GDJMSP is 100% correct and the rest of you are wrong. At least in regards to CAC. <b>They do not take designation into account AT ALL when evaluating coins, only the grade!</b> I&#039;ve gone this through time and time again when submitting coins to CAC.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a strong example of a DMPL. I own many, this one has some of the strongest mirrors and best cameos I&#039;ve seen. The devices are insanely frosty. I submitted this to CAC multiple times and it did not get stickered. Why? <b>It&#039;s a weak example of the grade - 63, despite being a strong example of the designation.</b> Look at those excessive bag marks on the cheek (see reverse in thumbnails too):</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1234511[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Here&#039;s an example of the opposite case - strong example of the grade, very weak example of the designation.</b> These mirrors are barely PL. I don&#039;t even think this coin should have gotten a PL designation. I submitted it and it got stickered. I sold this coin because the eye appeal for the designation was crap:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1234518[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Here&#039;s a coin with amazing eye appeal (hence the star designation), but weak example for the grade according to CAC. </b>Check out reverse in thumbnails, it&#039;s even prettier.
