What is the highest grade jump anybody has seen when submitting a Gold Beaned CAC coin?

I don't crack out gold bean holders myself, but I did have a green bean 1916 Merc upgrade a point when submitted raw and get a green bean again. I have two AU58 gold pieces that I think are MS62-63, but I like them where they are.
I have only seen a one grade jump.... though I read of a two grade jump elsewhere...no confirmation on that one. Cheers, RickO
I picked up a walker in a 65 holder that looks like a solid 66+/67 was he reason for the question.
Here’s a pretty big jump...and it even got green beaned at the higher grade, too!
Just goes to show you that a GOLD CAC doesn’t just mean it would likely grade one grade higher if resubmitted for regrade.
This one is mine...bought it in its current PCGS holder.

Actually, I looked up my dime and it was a MS 64 FB in an old rattler and I cracked it out and had it graded again raw. It went to MS66 FB and I sent it back to CAC on a whim and it got a green sticker again.
Ive got an 1810 Classic Head Cent in 55 gold cac OGH, (should ,and pretty confident as well as opinions from two leading experts in field) that it will regrade a 62. But I like the holder its in, so I wont crack it.
Not a bean story, but I once had a 1913 Type I Buffalo nickel I sent in to PCI - you remember them don't you? It came back AU55. Years later I cracked it out (after having dealers think they were going to get a good rip) and sent it to PCGS. It came back MS64. You can find nice coins in lower echelon holders.
The grades on the old PCI holders were all over the place. The actual grade could higher or lower than the number on the holder.
Had an 1806 half go from 60 to 64
There have been a number of coins that went from 40/45 to 55/58. So what’s that 4 to 6 grades?

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
