<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinchemistry 2012, post: 2164821, member: 28107&quot;]It isn&#039;t an issue of me buying plastic and stickers and not the coin, as I feel that I am quite competent with silver, gold, and nickel coinage, and my rate of crossovers and CAC green stickers is very high.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the pieces in question, I noticed them at the last minute, and did not have time to have someone view the coins in hand.&nbsp; So I relied on the Heritage photos and made an offer that I felt was fair.&nbsp; One of the coins looked to have rub that did not show in the images and I found unacceptable for the mint state grade.&nbsp; The other, the MS66 Barber Dime was not as colorful as the auction house photos led me to believe.&nbsp; In this instance, yes, CAC can be a useful screening tool since they have seen it in hand.&nbsp; This is not to say that I wouldn&#039;t buy a CAC coin as I often buy coins that aren&#039;t stickered.&nbsp; And if you reread my post, you will see that I have submitted non-stickered coins and submitted them to CAC to increase liquidity when it comes time to sell.</p><p><br /></p><p>And the portion of my post that you quoted was a coin that I bought from Heritage without a sticker, and when I could not get the price I wanted, I submitted it to CAC and CAC offered me more than I was asking for it before it stickered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
