<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treylxapi47, post: 2216227, member: 41863&quot;]I think CAC has some value for Classic Coins if you are attempting to purchase &#039;original&#039; coins and the series is wrought with dippings and other minor surface issues that seemed to happen on a regular basis back in contemporary times. </p><p><br /></p><p>For example, I collect Seated Quarters, and that is a series that is HEAVILY meddled with and hard to find truly original pieces. So CAC helps that set of coins, but I dont know how much value it adds to say Mercury Dimes where you can easily find a ton of original eye appealing coins in almost any grade range for that series. I would think CAC would also benefit a series like Trade Dollars where again you have many examples that were adulterated and heavily counterfeited, a sticker on that series would be much more valuable than an Ike dollar with the same sticker (talking premium for the sticker, not overall value here).</p><p><br /></p><p>On a side note, there is also a fine nuance you need to pickup on when dealing with CAC coins, because not all &#039;original&#039; coins that earn a CAC sticker are necessarily eye appealing coins. Meaning, you will often run into coins that meet the criteria for a green bean, but the overall look is just horrible or not very appealing. In that case the sticker adds nothing for me and actually detracts from the value of CAC. </p><p><br /></p><p>CAC should have been more along the lines of the PQ sticker. Only stickering coins that were actually attractive and not necessarily just strictly original.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
