    On 1885-S PCGS 62 / my vote NO on CAC. The scratch / gouge on cheek reason for thumbs down. C coin or MS61.

    it wb tough sell from table or online store. I would - Start it at $9.95 on bay get rid of it.

    For this kind material recommend acquire MS64 or higher.

    Frosty and lustrous and better than most 62s that look like they were in a knife fight. I’d say green bean

    Good luck with this one. 85-s a less common coin in unc and tougher to find nice in high grade

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I'm late to the party on the 46S Walker - but I would have said no sticker. There is way too much chatter for a premium 66 on that coin. It would have a solid sticker if it was 65, in my opinion.

    As for the 85S - GOLD CAC. That is an ultra-premium 62. If it were sent in today, that would probably have a good shot at a 64.

    Also, I don't know who is next in line, but I've got one to add to the pile.

    This one failed to CAC.
    I was expecting at least a green and shot at gold. Side by side with some MS 64s, this one seemed to fit right in. It obviously wasn't getting cracked considering the doily holder (at least not by me). It ended up selling to a big dealer on eBay (so maybe they saw something too?).

    I’ll throw my name in the hat for an upcoming coin as well. (Won’t comment on the 85-S since we discussed that one recently.)

    Gold CAC on coin and deserves it:
    Gold CAC on coin but should only be Green: 1
    Gold CAC on coin but should not sticker:
    Failed to sticker but deserves a sticker: 1

    Unknown sticker status and does not deserve a sticker:


    Note: if we don’t know the status of a coin before the reveal and more people say green CAC for a gold CAC coin, then it will go in the area of “Gold CAC on coin but should only be Green” ....see round 3 as the example case

    I don’t like the coin and would not be a buyer. For that amount of money would buy something else - mod slabbed gold or nice classic commem MS 65-66.

    I vote for a green bean on 1830.

    I'd give the bust half a green bean. Pretty coin with obvious rub on the high points but I'd say borderline AU50.

    +1 on the half with a green, sweet coin.

    This is a look I collect a lot of and it seems to be one where strict originality isn’t an absolute requirement for CAC verification (as in, proper conservation carried out that reveals choice surfaces with luster and color intact), similar to white coinage that has been properly dipped and still stickers.
