    You could always resubmit it to CAC so you can ask for feedback when it fails again.

    Once upon a time that coin was raw and just as beautiful. Now it's "ugly" to some because no sticker or maybe the extra plus. Interesting.

    The important thing is -- that YOU like it (I am assuming that you are the owner).

    It is nice to know the opinions of others, but ultimately you are the person who must decide whether you would rather have the coin than the money it costs to buy it.

  • Great eye appeal! But the marks adjacent to the face are likely the problem for CAC. PCGS and CAC see some things differently. The PCGS (+) grade means nothing to me, whereas a CAC sticker does!

    No mistake. It appears they don’t consider it an A or B coin in the grade range.
