Same simple question as my coin #1 post (link to thread):
The coin arrived at CAC this week. Guesses on the result? 
Nothing is as expensive as free money.

Mark on the chin is a no go for me, sorry.

The 2 dings are too much IMO but what do I know. Good luck

No, due to marks on each side.

Surfaces are nice, couple of marks but IMO they are small and not distracting. It only needs to pass as a 66. Given the minimal price spread between 65 & 66, I think it stickers mostly as a referendum on surface originality.

Tough one for me. Technically it’s on the edge. Color wise it’s original skin like they like, but questionable on the eye appeal. Then again I have seen dogs in CAC plastic and this is nowhere a dog. When in doubt, lean NO with CAC.
Having fun while switching things up and focusing on a next level PCGS slabbed 1950+ type set, while still looking for great examples for the 7070.
Given that I'm in the minority, does anyone want to make a friendly (small) wager?

I passed due to lack of luster....at least from what I can tell from the photos.

No and it's fugly looking to me as well
1:1 odds? Sure, what did you have in mind?

good luck. I won't even guess as that is what it would be without in hand.
Yeah, even money. GS for a 66CAC is $38. Booked!

I think it just squeaks through as a green bean, but would not cross to CACG with the +.

Oh wow, I didn’t realize this coin was that cheap. There’s a good chance it will squeak by at those levels. Regardless, I’ll take the action.

That's one of the reasons I feel confident. It's a huge price jump to 67. But for the real reason behind stickering (originality, JA being willing to buy sight unseen), this seems like a slam dunk to me.

I'll offer free images of the coin to @P0CKETCHANGE if it does sticker - with the caveat being that he might have to wait a little bit before I can actually do the images for him.

Put me down at green.
The splotchy reverse toning makes it a no IMHO,,,,,,,
I think it will get a green sticker at MS66.

I will guess a green sticker. That’s the type of original look that seems to sticker.
No looks too dullish to me.
Result: CAC Green
I bought this coin for my toned WQ set, and I didn't really care if it beaned but thought it had about a 50/50 shot. The hits on the cheek don't preclude a solid 66 IMO, but there's nothing "wow" about the coin either.
CAC pop (stickered + graded) is now 36 in MS66, with 41 in MS67. There's a 7x price jump between 66 and 67, so I'm happy to max this date out in my set with a 66+ CAC.
The forum was overwhelmingly against this one passing (85% vs. 15%), but a few folks joined me including @TomB and @lermish who prevailed in the friendly wager with @DeplorableDan
@FlyingAl I also intend to take you up on the free photo offer

@P0CKETCHANGE - the free photo is yours for the taking! It will unfortunately be a little while until I am back open for business. I'll keep you updated.

Boom! Congrats on a nice result!

I would have said no. Original, but not very attractive, IMO

I won't buy it for the price connected with the grade.
