    << <i>The question is, can be the sticker be removed (if necessary, with an extremely thin plastic remainder on the backing) and applied to another slab? >>



    Do you intend to put the green bean on an ACG slabbed coin? Inquiring minds want to know.

    What!!!

    No enterprising young chinese are offering rolls of stickers on ebay yet?

    I wonder what's taking them so long?

    They should be available in a rainbow of colors by now.

    At least on all those fake slabs.

  • The OP stated he did like CAC stickers on some of his newer coins. Sounds like a high quality problem to me.

    Taking off the green bean causes the value of the coin to drop, no way around it.

    The OP clearly stated that he didn't like the looks or aesthetics of the green stickers on the slabs of his keeper coins. He just doesn't like the way they look. He probably just finds then distracting. I get it. He just wanted to know if they can be safely removed without a trace. I wish the stickers where on the reverse of the slab. Ah, marketing.

    YES they can safely be taken off. No problem. MJ

    BTW, you can take off the entire hologram on the reverse without a trace if you want.

    << <i>Didn't you pay for the thing? Why remove it? >>



    While I wouldn't do it, people might want to remove it to PUT IT ON ANOTHER COIN SO THE CRIMINAL CAN MAKE MORE MONEY THAN HAVING IT ON THE OTHER COIN! (You should, at this time, slap your forehead with your palm and then say "DOTE" in the voice of Homer Simpson.)

    << <i>What!!! No enterprising young chinese are offering rolls of (CAC) stickers on ebay yet? I wonder what's taking them so long? >>



    Baron....I am coming to the conclusion that you may be one of the smarter posters to this forum. First, in a thread that has been deleted, you suggested the domain name of "IncredibleCoins.com" (thanks again) and now, you're the first person to state a very insightful thing which is the inevitable availability of forged CAC stickers. My prediction is that we'll hear about them within 6 months. (I hope I am wrong.)

    (And by the way, please don't anyone accuse me, when it happens, of having anything to do with them just because I predicted their arrival right around the corner. I also didn't have anything to do with plus signs being added by PCGS, even though I predicted that too.)

    (And for your information, holographic stickers can be custom made to order for around $4,000. I know this because a friend of mine had some holographic stickers made up....for under $4,000. No, not CAC stickers but stickers for another coin venture which I think he has shelved for the time being, and that's all the info I am going to reveal...and no, it's not anything I am or was working on.)

    This thread does defy logic. The OP answered the question about why he wanted to remove the green bean. It's a destraction on the newer slabs in his core collection. He'll keep them on his flipping material. Thats the way I read it.

    "negative commentary/rant removed before I posted"

    Yes, the residue can be easily removed with googone if any remains on the slab.

    << <i>Why does the (physical) sticker even matter since the slab number is in the CAC database? image >>



    Who wants to look up all the slabs in the world to see which ones got CAC stickered?image >>



    Dunno. Is smoeone buying all of the slabs in the world?

    This potentiality has been discussed several times before.
