Crossover to CACGrading - Two out of three ain't bad

oih82w8oih82w8 Posts: 13,077 ✭✭✭✭✭

My first crossover attempt through CACGrading provided some expected results with way better than expected processing. The package was signed for at the Virginia Beach location on 03 July and input into their system (received) on 06 July, and I received the shipment notice 4 days later. Two crossed at the original grades by PCGS and NGC, which were previously green beaned by CAC. The one NGC that did not cross did not have a green bean. One received the "L" for Legacy, meaning that it was previously CAC'd in another holder. I am not sure why the other did not receive the "L" designation.

The images provided by CACGrading offer a Light and a Dark background.

My overall experience was outstanding! Great service and less than a week turnaround time.

Thank you for your interest and comments!

    I’m glad that you had such a good experience.
    Those are nice looking coins. Which image background option do you prefer?

    That 49/6 looks awfully familar, I may have owned that at one time, if not that one, a very similar color/eye-appeal.

    It really depends on the coins toning, in my opinion.

    I purchased that one a couple of months back, without the variety attribution, in a NGC holder.

    Is there any bias associated with the "L" or "legacy" crossovers compared to coins that have only been to cacg? On the H10c the lack of luster or toned over look in the fields would be a concern for me.

    From what I recall the "L" Legacy annotation was supposed to designate that the coin was previously CAC'd in a PCGS or NGC holder.

    The new policy guarantees that a coin stickered November 2007-June 5, 2023 will get the legacy designation so long as the numerical grade does not change.

    https://help.cacgrading.com/support/solutions/articles/151000101823-legacy-crossovers-policy

    This would expalin why the 1892 Barber Quarter did not have the "L" since it was CAC'd earlier this year.

    The toning appears rather dark and heavy on the H10C in the slab shot, the image of the coin itself does have a multitude of colors under white light, as depicted in the Image Secure picture.

    Awesome. I have six non-beaned and four beaned PCGS peace dollars that I’m procrastinating on sending in to cross. I appreciate the review. It helps put a fire under my butt to go for it.
