Both NGC and PCGS recognize the CAC endorsement in the respective registries and with NGC already allowing PCGS coins I won't be surprised to see CACG coins accepted in the NGC Registry soon (if not already - don't compete and haven't checked recent…
I like that AccuGrade holder!
I like that AccuGrade holder!
I'm with @WilliamJ, I love the older holder. Just think of that as tuition, with a bit of history attached.
Thank you both, I really enjoy collecting the old and now defunct holders …
Thanks everyone for the replies and thoughts on a grade, and the answer is; just a tad over graded.
This is a coin that I bought back when I was just first starting to buy slabbed coins, and likely one that I would pass on now but does fill …
@SharpStrikes like you I store my coins in a SDB for safety and security. I get around the issue by taking photos of the lesser value coins myself and I send the better coins to professional photographers like Mark Goodman, and recently forum memb…
I see plenty of CACG coins on various web sites, FB and Instagram. Last I heard, CACG has already graded over 100,000 coins! The good coins get snapped up quick and remain in tight hands. Coin shows are great and I do attend them; however, it’s alwa…
@JohnButler is this common to all the coins in the Saint series or only to specific years? And thanks for yet another learning tool for those like myself that are not familiar with this.

Are $2.50 and $1 gold intentionally left off the gold tier? I'm assuming maybe they are smaller and harder to grade, submitter just has to use economy, standard, or express dependent on value?
This was one of the things th…
Not sure that would have mattered on the second auction. Seems that gc bidders 8 and 9 really wanted it or both thought it a lock upgrade. Once it failed to upgrade the underbidder knew it wouldn't upgrade or had already secured another coin.
I…
Perhaps this discussion would be more relevant if the op would clarify what is ment by, "should CAC be accepting ANACS coins". Accepting ANACS graded coins for what? Registry use? Stickering? Crossover/grading?
I really don't understand your concern, p or n registry participants will still have many choices of coins in the marketplace. Additionally CACG has said that both p and n coins will be usable in the CACG registry so there will be no need to cross…
So, one mystery solved, after a long look with a 10X loupe I found a small area of hairlines where the neck and jawline meet on the 1904. Just goes to show that CACG is doing it right and holding the line on surface preservation. As the submitte…
I expect that the Lincoln Cents will be available by the end of October.

That is welcome news, I have a few that would be nice to have attributed and graded.
Call me old fashioned, but I prefer holding auctions at shows-at least for one night. How do you feel about the new trend of having auctions a week later?
Makes no difference to me.
Have you stopped attending shows due to no live auctions?
No…
I love this hobby and don’t make statements for the purpose of hurting the hobby, but “I call ‘em as I see ‘em”.
Steve
And I never said you make your statements with the purpose to hurt the hobby, but just like you "I call 'em as I see 'em". I…
In my opinion, crossing NGC stickered coins not in “expensive” old holders at the same grade on the holder, or better, makes a LOT of sense.
Steve
I have to disagree biased on the results we have seen thus far. Granted those results are spotty …

Will you be able to tell on the CACG holder if the coin is a Legacy coin? I have seen a few CACG coins up for auction and did not see anything that would let you know it is a Legacy coin.
Yes, if the coin is a previous NGC/PCGS with a bean there w…
I have an idea that CACG AND non-members might BOTH like?
Why not open the membership to all non-members but new members would be limited to no more than ONE submitted coin for stickering and/or grading over the next fixed period of time. This way…
How many people with CAC membership are going to send coins to CMQ instead of CAC? Probably not too many. How many people with stickered coins will also submit them to CMQ? Once again probably not too many. How many people with coins that didn’t sti…
Lovely examples for sure! As these both appear to be in the generation 4 "OGH" PCGS holders I'm going to guess that both are graded MS66. However, if I'm correct on the holder and the timeframe that these were graded, I'm sure that both would…
Speaking of "another ridiculously incorrect statement"....
1. I did not say that Halls' new sticker service will not accept NGC coins, only that Hall seems to be discouraging their submission by only mentioning PCGS in the promotional teaser line.
…
Very excited to see that CACG will be accepting submissions at the IMEX show (I grabbed two tables as well - hoping it will be a good show!). Three questions for @CAC_Team / @CAC_Ops / @JACAC:
1. Will submissions be open at the IMEX show for all …
There is always potential. Yugos also had traction, when 7 people were pushing it.
Nothing wrong with being the Yugo of numismatics as long as you do it with flair!
