That's an excellent one Lloyd! When I first saw the colors I thought '47 mint set and then looked at the date. Very hard to get that date/mm looking like that.
If it goes to CAC and they agree, are you going to like it more? If they don't agree, are you going to like it less? Will the value be different, even though it's the same coin?
<< <i>If it goes to CAC and they agree, are you going to like it more? If they don't agree, are you going to like it less? Will the value be different, even though it's the same coin? >>
I was wondering why someone would bother to submit the coin to CAC. The color looks unquestionably original and I can't see what would be gained (monetarily, or with respect to peace of mind) from a CAC sticker.
I think it is a very pretty coin, but unlike coinguy1 I think the coin would at least benefit in possible liquidity with a CAC sticker as opposed to no sticker.
<< <i>For the liquidity factor Mark.CAC coins generally bring more money.Thats all. >>
Unique monster toned coins like that dont really gain anything from CAC. The coin stands on its own merits. A normal non toned run of the mill one yeah it may gain from being Caced. I think that is what Mark was saying if I may be so bold.

That's more or less what I was thinking. The extra value in that coin would be in the color. So, unless the color were questionable, I don't see how a CAC sticker would matter.

That's right. And the folks who don't think that are overestimating the intelligence of the market. Today it's all about the holders and the stars and the plusses and the stickers and I hope I didn't miss anything, but, i.e., the endorsements, the packaging. Of course you don't want to tell that to these "collectors," because they'll remind you, they look at the coin!
I like the coin as is.PCGS liked the coin to a 66 grade,its not a 67,but i am no grader,especially on Walkers.It is for sale via PM.EVERYONE HAPPY NOW?
Great coins are not cheap,and cheap coins are not great!

Bestclser1, FWIW, I zoomed it up on zoomFox, that's a legitimate, technical MS-66. It didn't get any help from that stunning tarnish, I'm saying...and, that bodes very well for it. Condition-wise, it's every bit a MS-66.

I still don't agree with you, Mark. The colors in the image look fine to me, too, but we both know that there is an enormous population of collectors who prefer or require PCGS certified coins especially when dealing with toned coins and I believe there is a newer, albeit smaller, population of collectors who now demand or prefer the CAC sticker on such coins. That smaller population improves the liquidity and perhaps the price, too.
Have to agree on pric/value.Dealer A sells a 1942 Walker in 66 to client for 1200.Client has it stickered.Sells in Heritage auction for 4K plus juice.Same coin,but next time will dealer A sticker the coin?If it was me,though i am just a collector,i would.Best,LC

I think your answer would apply to the more sophisticated, seasoned numismatist who knows what he likes and understands the value of a nicely toned coin. The CAC sticker might appeal to the collector who doesn't always trust his instincts. Imagine a collector sitting on the fence and wondering; "I like it but I'm not sure if I should buy it, however, since both PCGS AND CAC give their seals of approval, then it must be spectacular."

Talk about a juiced pic! Someones thumb got stuck on the saturation button.
If they don't agree, are you going to like it less?
Will the value be different, even though it's the same coin?
