  • If you want to sell a coin, the CAC sticker is the way to go. If you get a CAC sticker, then there is a chance that the coin will get a PLUS if regraded, and that future opportunity might impact the price. If, on the other hand, you send the coin in for Secure Plus and it doesn't get the PLUS, then you are stuck and you now have plastic that is less valuable, because the coin will never get a PLUS.

    It seems like it is dangerous to spend the money to regrade a coin just to try to get a plus.

    PCGS made a mistake by marrying the PLUS grade with the SECURE holder. They should have just gone with the SECURE holder to get started.

    Stickered coins will be resubmitted to be Plus'ed, which will then get resubmitted to be Stickered again. Simple.

    The way I read it stickered coins are a larger population than +'d coins so only PQ stickered coins will plus. If they don't plus, they'll come back in the holder with the bean still on them. --Jerry

    I think that if the plus grading applied to all coins submitted that it might have a bit of an effect. However, it only applies to coins submitted under higher tiers of service, will ultimately cost a LOT more than submitting to CAC and only applies to certain grades.

    So I think I'll still end up sending my VF-XF Barbers in for stickering.

    I see the two services having overlapping but not identical roles. There is room in the market for both.

  • PCGS just confirmed the need for a TPG to certify PQ coins - would you rather that be done by the TPG doing the original grading or an independent third party grader? Food for thought -

    Larry, I take it that means you did not do well on your most recent submissions to CAC?image

    Great coin improvements for PCGS that will not affect NGC or CAC. Business as usual.

    I'll predict that one day there will be so many stickers on the holders that you won't be able to see the grade or the coin.

    CAC will come out with a new sticker, it will be the green football with a plus sign on it.

    PCGS or NGC coin, with a CAC sticker on a coin I love, is very good.

    CAC was nothing before and is even less now.

    bye bye

    CAC has seriously damaged the pricing on all but the nicest of NGC coins. I'd say that was a very significant effect. It's had a somewhat similar but much smaller effect on PCGS coins.

    CAC will get more submissions as RYK alluded to. It's going to come to a point where not having some sort of additional "attribution" (plus, CAC, star, eagle eye, etc.) will make one's coins much more difficult to sell for average to solid money per the commonly published sheets/price guides.

    I don't understand your first point. Many NGC coins were already languishing long before CAC was formed. And it seems to me that CAC put a good many NGC coins on equal footing with PCGS coins, when they wouldn't otherwise have been. That has been my experience in buying and selling PCGS and NGC coins.

    Mark, in a perfect world, all NGC graded coins should cross to PCGS 100% of the time.
    Wouldn't it be fair to say that at least 50% should cross at any given time as NGC and PCGS are the premier TPG leaders.
    Why is it that my crossover rate is <20%??

    Thanks in advance.
