<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 654876, member: 15309&quot;]I could not have said it better myself.&nbsp; His intentions had nothing to do with gouging the coin collecting society for $10 grading fees.&nbsp; Although I am sure that he wants the CAC to be profitable and successful, the impact that CAC sticker has on a coins liquidity is much more important than the grading fee.&nbsp; Coin dealers need to be able to move their inventory constantly.&nbsp; The CAC sticker gives added confidence to the collecting public and greatly improves liquidity as well as finally creating a stable sight unseen market.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have purchased a coin because of the CAC sticker.&nbsp; If you would like to read more about the story, please click on the following link.&nbsp; Here is a photo of the coin:&nbsp; 1942-P Jefferson Nickel NGC PF66 CAMEO CAC.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o59/ACPitBoss/Jefferson%20Nickels/JeffersonNickel1942-PSilverNGCPF-11.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&amp;Board=2&amp;Number=2486594&amp;Searchpage=1&amp;Main=131406&amp;Words=&amp;topic=0&amp;Search=true#Post2486594" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&amp;Board=2&amp;Number=2486594&amp;Searchpage=1&amp;Main=131406&amp;Words=&amp;topic=0&amp;Search=true#Post2486594" rel="nofollow">http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&amp;Board=2&amp;Number=2486594&amp;Searchpage=1&amp;Main=131406&amp;Words=&amp;topic=0&amp;Search=true#Post2486594</a></p><p><br /></p><p>For anyone who says that the sticker drives the price of the coin up, I have this response.&nbsp; I can count the number of times I have paid price guide for a coin.&nbsp; The coins I collect are all about eye appeal and in order to attain them, you almost always have to pay a premium to obtain them.&nbsp; If you are unwilling to pay above CDN or Numismedia wholesale, then respectfully, your collection will be comprised mostly of coins that will never get a CAC sticker in the first place.&nbsp; Everyone needs to stop being slaves to the price guides and start deciding for yourself how much the coin is worth to you.&nbsp; Once you start doing that, you will never be able to blame the CAC sticker for the premium.&nbsp; It is all about the coin.&nbsp; I am not saying that every CAC stickered coin has outstanding eye appeal and deserves a premium over bid.&nbsp; However, the ones that do deserve to sell at a premium regardless of the sticker because they are good for the grade and have outstanding eye appeal.&nbsp; Those two factors are what raise the price, not the sticker.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
