Re: I Just Had This Thing Crossed and Upgraded at CACG, Now apparently a Pop 1
And THAT is precisely WRONG with this numismatic hobby ! It is no longer how LEGITIMATELY rare or historical a coin is . It’s all about what the plastic slab grade it is, which slab company did it, the “ market value “ of what a single point upgrade - or even a plus + sign - means in increased $ value.

Yes, the "cac sticker" is printed on the CACG labels, and they did a good job with their new std labels imo. As far as "every coin also gets the cac approval", that's open for interpretation for the individual, I suppose? Here is what CACG has to say about it **... "CAC was founded to combat the inconsistencies in coin… -

They were straight crosses that were all beaned, so it was an expected cross. It also saved me some money/shipping to NJ and back for restickering. Once & done.

Agreed, we all had some fun and a laugh. To bring it back to the coin, here it is imaged by CAC. I hope op doesn't mind me posting. Congrats on a very nice coin. -

Would you care to expound? I was being mostly facetious, CACG does not give much leniency to small issues but my observations are that they are giving each coin a fair shake. I’ve heard almost as many “collector makes top pop” as “dealer got hammered on details coins” stories.
