It is a classic conflict of interest if Barry Stupler stickers his own coins. I have heard that some of his offerings belong to consignors. https://ebay.com/str/mintstategoldbystupplerandco

Does anyone think CMQ will command any premium? This is the new stickering service with David Hall and Stacks Bowers. CMQ is already adding value in auctions. For the tiny fees, it is definitely worth submitting. You even get 50% of the fees back …

I just skimmed over your post, so kindly enlighten me.

Thank you! This is the most informative and entertaining post about coin certification that I have ever read in any forum.

This is a clever way to market your coins. Congrats on your exceptional creativity. I am surprised about a few of the CAC approved NGC or PCGS coins not crossing over to CACG, which I thought would be automatic. What am I missing, other than possi…

As I said, in my experience. And I did not say early coins, I said rare coins, many of which are key dates from the 20th Century. And PCGS can grade more conservatively in some areas, such as boring toned coins, as evidenced by my inability to get…

This is not complicated. Just drag the image to your desktop or simply take a screenshot.

XF45 versus XF40. But it seems professionally cleaned. Or CACG VF35 if I am confusing the weak strike with wear?
-
It is more valuable in an ANACS AU58 slab than as a CACG AU50 or PCGS AU53. One famous dealer told me that 95% of all Seated dollars have been cleaned and/or otherwise doctored. CAC does seem to be more liberal when beaning them versus most other …

Have you checked this 1906 penny for varieties at indianvarieties.com? WARNING: You may become obsessed and addicted as many have at that website. Seventy-six varieties are listed for that date alone. Uh-oh!

In my experience with genuinely rare coins, PCGS-CAC coins are still bring considerably more money than CACG's. For whatever reason(s). I doubt that this phenomenon will ever change. PCGS is still a wildly popular behemoth. Every mass submitter kn…

Heck, no. CAC's grading standards are higher overall than ANACS' regardless of the slab generation. And coins' edges are not visible in ANACS's white slabs.

To me it looks like shelf or strike doubling, not die doubling. The second impression seems lower than the first.

I am not an attorney but you can definitely sue a company in a state where it conducts business. I have done it in a few states. You can also sue in the state where the contract was signed. Do any actual attorneys who specialize in this area of la…

A heart attack in a box.

PayPal has a physical presence in 17 states including one within 30 miles from me. I would file a lawsuit against them tomorrow morning. This outrage is a matter of principle.
-
p.s.- You can also sue Ebay if their contract has changed as you claim.
-
You have the right to know who the credit card issuer is, assuming that there even is one. Maybe the buyer used a checking account linked with PayPal, who would only protect you if they dealt with you directly, not through Ebay Managed Payments. R…

As I have noted in previous threads, if increased transit speed is desired for registered mail, use a 12 X 12 X 12 inch box, the largest size possible without incurring huge surcharges. The larger the box, the faster that it will travel in my experi…

p.s.- Read my February 2022 thread, "How to Beat Ebay Scammers".

Ebay can only help with disputes filed directly with them. You stated that your buyer disputed the purchase through his credit card issuer, so Ebay is not legally required to get involved as per their contract that you signed. But, assuming that yo…

From what I have seen, CAC has been following NGC's policies to the letter, no doubt because founder JA's philosophies permeate both companies. NGC does NOT allow minimum higher grades for upgrades, at least they specifically stated that on their we…
-
Special ot not, you can only request a minimum CACG crossover grade up to the grade on the NGC or PCGS slab, not a higher grade. Note that the $20 special applies to all coins valued at up to $125,000! A paltry investment considering the potential…
-
YOU SAID: So not every CAC stickered PCGS and NGC will be accepted as a direct cross. So should CAC stickering buy my coin for what I paid as their guarentee? MY REPLY: Not true! CAC has previously stated that their sticker service ignores the "+"…
-
For the vintage coins that I have seen, CAC and CACG have identical grading standards in all respects. For instance, both have the same criteria for anointing "Details" grades, copper color designations, and of course number grades.
-
Check the slab serial numbers at CAC's site to verify approval. CAC usually enters approved coins one business day before email notification, which can mean four calendar days counting a holiday weekend.
-
If you are this impatient with CAC, I can only imagine how much so you would be with PCGS. My most recent PCGS submission took five months for the roundtrip! Yet, only one NGC coin crossed over. If you are a CAC member, you can sign into their por…

YOU SAID: "Cacg is extremely tight on au60s and perceived cleaning. I'd venture to say he received quite a few details. From what I've seen of mine back so far cacg is positioning to be THE STANDARD in grading. They're going to change the market (on…

Are there any published prices for CACG+ material? Auction prices are the best guides for value. I know one major dealer who ignores prices guides and only uses auction prices.

Guess where all of my non-CAC NGC coins are being sent?
