Trouble brewing in the collection.

My CAC coins have begun bullying the unbeaned ones. I wasn't aware until this morning when I caught a little half dime taunting an unstickered double Eagle.
I did send the half dime to timeout but it just sat there smirking.

I don't know how much longer I can keep them in the same box.

Luckily it was not the CAC Mascot

@topstuff, I know what you mean, as I’ve had this happen in my collection quite significantly over the years. The only true answer is to succumb, which I did. So now, to avoid all fighting, every coin in my collection eligible for a CAC has one. Bullying no longer occurs, and they all get along fine.

Hmmm... this is an issue. Perhaps you should send that misfit half dime to me for sensitivity and awareness training!

A hostile work environment, you had better resolve this quick!

Since I only like one sticker per slab, I opted to put on a single SKU numbered sticker instead of any bean.

My collection / inventory is uniform and happy together.

See, I have a different problem. My non-sticker coins walk around with a huge attitude and chip on their shoulder. Really though, I think they have insecurity issues. The beaned coins lounge around by the pool in a state of endless bliss. Counseling hasn’t helped....... They’re talking about maybe finding a doctor who can make them better. One even talked about needing a chemical peel. I keep trying to tell them they’re just fine the way they are but they don’t listen........

Or re-education as they call it in NK.

@BryceN - Perhaps the chip on their shoulders are nicks, hence no CAC’s?

You can fool some of the coins some of the time but you can't fool all........etc etc etc....
I hope this works for you but i don't like to think of what's gonna happen when they find out.

Coins don't respond to cajoling very well.

Made me laugh😂

The beans in my collections are vastly outnumbered by the non-beaned and even raw uncooked coins. So they keep a low profile, it is in their best interests.

It sounds to me like oppression and if they organize, you could have more problems than stickers.

If a CAC coin ever made it into my collection it would get beat until it fits in.

@kbbpll - I agree that it sounds like a coin with a CAC would not fit in to your collection (just kidding) )

That is what happens when kids or coins are pampered. A good old fashioned butt whupping is in order so long as it does not mark the coin.

Sir! A CAC coin can not be beat!

Too many beans cause excessive gas..... So balance your collection.. or ventilate appropriately. Cheers, RickO
