Two CAC questions?

#1 - What is the success percentage of coins sent to CAC that are approved. 50%?, 40%? 60? or something else.
#2 - Does anyone have the feeling that CAC has tightened up recently?
Thanks,

Ok, turns out the real percentage for Gold CAC is somewhere around .25-.3%, or 1 out of every 300-400. I will contact my previous source to let them know they were incorrect! Sorry for the mistake, guys!

<< <i>Is it really 1/8000? Wow >>
That's what I was told by two sources.

<< <i>I only know part of an answer to one of your questions. I know that 1/8000 or 0.000125% get the coveted Gold sticker.

Your math is incorrect. One divided by 8,000 and then expressed as a percentage is 0.0125%.

Doh! You're right, I forgot to multiply by 100! Sorry about that!
Still a very small number! Lol

Better yet, HAs anyone noted that CAC standards have changed? That is more unbiased.

It's the best bet in town.
...is it possible to re-submit?
1. Personally I average about 60%.
2. I don't see any change in their standards.

Third submission, 2011: 0 for 3
Running total, 60%, all gold
Got a 4th in process, we'll see.
HTH.
Edit: To clarify, when I say "all gold", I'm referring to the type of coin (no motto gold), not the color of the sticker. All stickers I've gotten are *green*.
