Re: A Coin That Didn't Sticker as an MS66, Then Stickered as an MS67 (pics)
This is not the first story I've heard like that. I've stayed out of all of the CAC discussions (until now), but that's EXACTLY why I don't use CAC for stickers or grading. Too inconsistent. Before someone points it out, I know inconsistency examples can be found in all TPG's. However, as a whole, I'm amazed at how consistent PCGS, NGC, and even ANACS is. I do have some CAC green beans in my collection, but they came that way and they passed my requirements, not someone else's.

Re: Post your rarest die variety...
Rarest has to be this one - the 1873 S-1 Close 3 IHC aka the “Double Liberty”:




There’s pronounced doubling in several areas of the obverse, notably the eye, feather tips, LIBERTY, the headband & front of the portrait. It’s acknowledged as the #1 IHC variety too!
