Where & how do you store your CAC coins to ensure

  1. The CAC sticker stays permanently w/the slab?
  2. The bean doesn’t get damaged?
  3. How long will the bean stay adhere to the slab?
  4. If the bean is accidentally or intentionally damaged will JA replace it, at what cost if any?

    I peel them off so all my slabs look the same.
    In the future, somebody could look the numbers up and see which ones have beans.
    If anyone cares.

    Just keep them with the other coins in my collection. They use pretty strong glue.

    I have my own stooper secret stash of green bean stickers. If any fall or rub off, I just break out the stooperglue, apply a knew one, and she’s as good as knew.

    Got Crust....y gold?

    Ive cracked out beaned coins to put in albums for customers, those stickers don't come off that easy. I literally busted the slab to pieces, and the sticker still clinging on to part of the plastic. the green will separate from the sticker base, but not in normal handling .

    Just dip your slabs in clear polyester casting resin. The little kiddie stickers will remain almost forever.

    Story as I recall was the owner just got the coin in the mail and had to run out to do some errands. Hid it inside his microwave under the glass tray and forgot about it. A unknowing family member defrosted something in the microwave.

    How we store them? Good god. We're not animals, are we?

    Nope this was the microwave damaged slab which occurred a few years ago.

    How did the coin fare?

    Green or gold : a blue box is adequate.

    1. No differently than any other coin in my collection
    2. See the answer to 1
    3. No idea, none have ever fallen off to date
    4. I think the cost is $3 plus shipping as long as the holder is undamaged and the cert # is the same.
