I've only seen one (gold CAC sticker) and that was a from a thread on this board. I'd like to see some more. I know they're fairly uncommon.

    Does Todd get to take all of the gold sticker coin photos?
    When in doubt, don't.

    Some of you guys seem more proud of the sticker than the coin. Very, very strange.

    Perry, strange is something that goes with the territory. At least sometimes and some of us more than others image

    What exactly doe's a gold sticker mean? Is it for Eye appeal?
  • SeattleSlammerSeattleSlammer Posts: 10,056 ✭✭✭✭✭
    This one would qualify IMHO.

    I don't think you can, in any way say that a coin will CAC GOLD, until it actually gets the GOLD. Even suggesting that a coin will get the green bean is a shot in the dark. CAC has their standards, standards that are unlike the grading service standards.

    This baby would get GOLD everyday of the week and twice on Sundays.

    I know this is a stretch but follow me here. I sent this in last year for regrade. It was in a PR63RD holder. It came back PR64RD. I since sent to CAC and it now has a green bean. Logically, it would have had a gold bean if I sent it in last year in the old holder. I know, it's not the same but ....image

    Question I have is, does the Green Bean make you feel any better about your coin???

    Prethen: I believe that less than 2% of submissions earn the gold.

    Thanks for posting. I can see why these coins have earned the "Gold Bean of Excellence" as opposed to the "Green Bean of Approval"

    I won this coin on Ebay about ten yrs ago. It was in an ANACS 55 holder. Didn't meet the reserve. A day later the seller emails me and says I was high bidder and would I like to buy the coin at my bid (don't remember exactly but less than $300). I said yes!

    Sold it a cpl years ago for a little shy of $2K. Now it's what? a $3K coin??

    Edit to add: That's a very accurate image Craig! Who shot it? you?

    Realtone: Thanks for the kind word. Your Bust Halfs are image

    Bushmaster8: I believe that the image was on the internet when I bought the coin. (Wish I could image my collection like this!) Currently, Barbers are very quiet, but difficult to find so value is in the eye of the "(be)holder".
