I rarely buy Double Eagles with a CAC sticker. I like the unblemished slabs. If I send a box in to be reviewed by Cac and they happen to sticker I immediately put the coin up for sale. I won't have stickered coins contaminating the rest.
On the question of NGC versus PCGS stickered slabs I found that the green sticker offsets any customers preference.
with that said Peas and broccoli are both green vegetables. Peas are overall better for you and are probably more popular.
However, if I need Calcium and Potassium I'm going with broccoli.

Probably because, contrary to what some are asserting, CAC stickers don't equalize the value of different flavors of plastic. Since market making is their driving force, too many tiers would be more headache than it's worth.

Regardless, isn’t education good?

Why keep future members from getting information for them to use to make their own informed decisions?

I think in a previous CAC thread I referred to some as Koolaid drinkers if you thought a PCGS CAC coin might sell for more than that same coin in an NGC CAC holder. I OWN BOTH IN CAC HOLDERS. I apologize for any offense taken but David Hall is gone. PCGS Board of Experts may live on as PCGS only dealers but are no longer modeled as they once were. One of those experts even stated to me that the Newman coins were not marketable in NGC holders. What they really meant was that they would rather offer them in PCGS plastic to be consistent in their premise that they could sell for more. I cannot buy that for a minute as I view a buyers market with an open mind, not half a brain.

Of course you realize that even if the sticker was removed, it is still CAC verified. Would that cloud of uncertainty still cause you to sell your premium coins ?
I just bought the code book so I can decipher my post. It clearly bombed.
I rarely buy DE's with a sticker. I mainly am buying gold proxies so I am interested in lower premiums. I sell most coins that sticker since they prove to be a bonus which I pass along to others.
NGC vs PCGS.. In my selling history, I usually receive the same price once stickered.
Peas vs Broccoli? More people prefer Peas (which I believe was a topic?) but they each have their proponents. Overall, if you want a more obscure coin the grading service might not play as much of a role in your decision to buy.

It's not a question of "Koolaid drinkers". It's a market reality. Now, sure, maybe the people doing the bidding are "PCGS Koolaid drinkers", but observing and naming the phenomenon is not a case of self deception.

@pmh1nic said:
I think the question alluded to in the OP is whether CAC has its own grading standard or makes the judgment on whether to sticker a coin based on the differing standards used by these major grading companies. When an NGC coin is sticker is CAC indicating the coin is solid based on NGC's assessment of grade (typically thought to be not as stringent as PCGS) or a standard CAC adheres to that may be different from both NGC and PCGS?
If JA will make an offer on a coin, CAC puts a sticker on it. That's it. Usually, but not always, such coin is solid for the grade. PCGS, NGC, and CAC each have certain quirks about what they like for a particular grade. While they usually are on the same page, this is not always the case.

CAC stickers coins they feel are solid for the grade or better, without regard to whether they’d have any interest in making offers on or buying them.

Probably the diplomatic thing to do. One consideration may simply be CAC would not be able to handle the additional volume of submissions. For example, CAC is often not accepting new submitters.
NGC stopped allowing new PCGS slabbed coins into their registry several years ago.
Absolutely incorrect! Only a few months ago I started, and added my entire collection to dozens of NGC Registry sets, all for curiosity. My collection is 100% PCGS graded coins. As I regularly add new coins to my PCGS Registry sets, I also add those same PCGS graded coins to my NGC sets. The last addition was this past week!
Steve
I believe that you’re both correct. NGC did stop accepting PCGS coins in their sets for some time, but subsequently started allowing them again about two years ago.
Thanks for setting the record straight. I didn't realize NGC went back to allowing PCGS coins in their registry which I think was the right thing to do. I'm glad to see that at least one of the major grading services is practicing inclusivity.
Actually, they let PCGS coins in if they are American coins. Foreign coins are still not accepted into their registry.

Several years ago, 2013-ish maybe, there was an interview in Coin World where JA stated that they had reviewed groups of coins from other grading services to see if they should expand. Not enough of these other slabs would have earned CAC stickers for it to be worthwhile for them to start including the other slabs. The interview may still be in Coin World's archives.
