I understand this is not a set for everyone. That is a good thing because there is a limited supply out there. Some see Gold Stickered slabs as something that should be cracked. Not me. These will be saved for future generations of collectors to enjoy. I am hoping to add an NGC Gen 2.0/2.1 and some PCGS Gen 2 holders as well.
I have been very lucky to obtain 13 of these in the past month or so. Some from auctions, some from dealers and some from fellow forum members. (a big thank you for those). It has been an extremely fun adventure and I look forward to finding more down the road.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
Thanks @coinbuf I am sure it will up some but there are still a number of coins in the 40's that I need. It takes luck for the earlier ones.

That's a challenging pursuit. Congrats on the progress.
The last Gold CAC Merc I had, I cracked. Still have it.
I wanted a great TV of it but I had to stick with my own photos. The TV...not good!

Thanks @Cougar1978 and @Dave99B
Cool coin @keyman64 There is always the temptation to crack but the plan is to pass these on to the next collector with the Gold bean.
