They are out there all right, as Winesteven's recent experience shows us.
A couple of things worth noting:
There are at least 2 generations of CAC stickers. The earlier version was easier to transfer. The version in use nowadays is definitely more…
I have a client who was sent a proceeds check from an investment company on April 12th from Kansas City to a NY metro suburb. It arrived today, 11 days later!

Still 10 year limit to withdraw funds from IRA or even Roth IRA as a beneficiary of a deceased IRA owner, the one to two year waiver of withdrawal during the oandemic affected very few beneficiaries.
IRS has done a shitty job in explaining the rule…
My suggestion would be to do something similar to the way PCGS has their Type sets.
Have a basic set where there’s one slot for a $3 Gold coin, one slot for a 3 cent Silver, one slot for a 3 cent nickel etc. Then a separate but larger set having t…
BTW Steve I added a 2c Small Motto to my type set after (I believe) reading one of your posts, which included your nice example. It certainly is distinctive.
Thanks for your kind words.
I saw a great 1864 Large Motto Two Cent graded MS66+RD PCG…
The additions I have in mind are not expensive and the subtractions are. Examples: add the 1854 $3 and remove the1907 $10 Wire Edge and Rolled Edge. It's VERY hard IMO to justify the two $10's and omit the $3.
Sounds good. But a Type Set with a s…
Regarding Type, which I understand is under construction: will the complete and non-gold sets have the same composition as PCGS? Also, is CACG open to suggestions as to what may be added to or left out of the "traditional" type sets?
Please don't …
Yes Steve you're correct. The MyCollect Registry includes NGC, NGCX, PCGS, and CACG as TPGs listed when adding inventory with an official statement to include others in the future such as ANACS and ICG. Noticed you have some nice sets listed on that…
Most definitely underly cynical. I was trying to end the week on a positive note. I'll try better come Monday. Odds are you're correct and the CACG Registry will now be the only all inclusive competition. Fun stuff!
The MyCollect Registry, run by …

Coinbuf - I also appreciate you mentioning the announcement from NGC that at winter FUN 2023 that CACG coins would be allowed to be used in the NGC registry. I was only guessing that would be the next logical step for NGC to take but w…
I agree with everything you said, but the perception some of us have is that it's pretty tough getting a plus grade from CACG (excluding coins downgraded to a plus at the lower grade). As I indicated in my comment earlier, perhaps this is as it shou…
You're right on point. Early on JA said that roughly 25% of CAC stickered coins were "A" coins, with the strong implication those would cross as plus coins. Yes, many of those NGS coins were already crossed to PCGS, but not enough for us to now know…
I have a coin from the very early 1800’s that like yours, clearl also has the wrong coin number. Since my coin is in a rattler, there’s no way I’m sending it in to get fixed, in a new holder.
I only made a comment in my set beside that coin.
Steve
While I’d be strongly in favor of the PCGS Registry accepting CACG graded coins in the PCGS Registry, I’d be shocked if in the real world they would do that, as there’s no incentive for them to do so.
Steve
While CAC stickering does not recognize the plus on plus graded coins of PCGS and NGC, the new CAC Registry DOES. More importantly, the MARKET recognizes the value of those green stickered plus graded coins. Yet regarding your suggestion, CAC sticke…
Clarifying the above, if a Type Set needs one Indian Head Cent, and one guy chooses a 1901 MS65RB, and another guy chooses for that same slot 1877 MS65RB, while the PCGS Registry will give those two collectors the same number of Registry points for …
I would wait for the CAC Grading Club onslaught, before predicting well or really well.....
John - I buy the coins in the grades I'm comfortable with for each slot - not for the purpose of moving up in ranking. But as a generalization, regardless …
While my collection is broad, and I'll do well in the Registries with the 141 Registry Sets I've set up so far, I suspect I'll do really well with a few of the upcoming Type Sets, even though I've chosen to use common coins, and not rare coins, for …

My guess is they will be added. Since there's a ton more programming needed for Type Sets due to the super large numbers of coins allowed to fill a slot, AND CACG Registry will be WEIGHTING each coin for the same slot differently due to the rarity o…
"CACNUTCOLLECTOR said:
The scoring system seems to penalize stickered coins vs CACG coins."
Respectfully just my opinion. I don't interpret the scoring system as penalizing stickered coins at all including in relation to CACG coins. A coin with a …
