  This one graded PCGS MS65+ also has a green sticker. I guess my eyes are going bad because this is definitely NOT a better than average coin for the grade/date. I collect this series so I at least have some sense of what a typical coin looks like.

  CAC always buys back their mistakes at current market. If it's yours, I'll personally notify JA of the problem via the picture. You'll hear back by Monday. PM me if needed.

  @MsMorrisine... That is the sticker for when they 'think' it could go another grade, but surely at the top of the assigned grade.... The 'Mr. In Between' sticker.... Cheers, RickO

  The nickel I posted isn't my coin...I came across it while browsing auctions. The nickel is in an upcoming Stack's Bower's auction. That's why I don't buy the holder/sticker, but rather look for superior coins with strong strikes and eye appeal regardless of what someone else thinks it should be or what sticker is on it.
