The grand total is now up to 119 and I could not be happier! One of my numismatic dreams for years was to make an elusive Gold CAC on a Bust Half Dollar. JA is notoriously strict and just does not hand these out!
Here are the before photos:
Here is after in all its glory:
Thanks for viewing!!
If you have made one, I would love to see it! Please post it in the comments below!

Congrats! I've made several gold beans but none are CBH's
My Collection of Old Holders
Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
I think it is a nice AU-50, surprised that it gold CACed. Particularly with the large black spot on the north reverse.
Congrats on the win regardless.

Just made my first one. Thought it was gonna be at the po box today but no dice. That has all the bells and whistles congrats
That's the gunk of originality
In all honesty if anyone can tell me a definitive answer on what that is, I would really appreciate it.

Congrats!
I’ve made several which I feel very fortunate about as I agree with your comment that JA doesn’t just hand them out.

that gold cac collection must have taken years and years to assemble
55 easy………….
I have not submitted a coin and received the gold bean...yet. i have one in mind that may check that box. Congrats!

Congratulations! I've made some gold CAC RE half dollars, but never a CBH.

Congrats! OGH/gold CAC coins will never go out of style.
Question. Has anyone ever made a CBH Gold Sticker.
@drddm Hold my beer!
As for me, no golds for me, at least with CBH's. It would probably help if I didn't upgrade them first!

As for yours Ethan, nice score!
Certainly looks like all of a 55, but like @jacrispies mentioned, the darker stain on the reverse seems ... difficult. Would love to see this in hand if you're coming to FUN.
Again, congratulations!
