Does the CAC sticker really affect the price? Is it worth re submitting for that also? It can. I've seen auction results show coins with CAC stickers being sold at prices 5% to 20% more than non-stickered coins. That said, IMO, I would not re-submit your coin for the CAC sticker. The potential premium it would bring would not be enough to cover the cost of the submission fee and associated shipping costs. Collecting history one coin or medal at a time! (c) commems.

Thanks commems. It does not make a difference to me anyway just was curious for future resale for my kids or something. I was just excited to get such a nice coin for what I think was a good price. I was born and raised in Wisconsin so why not get a coin with my states name on it, right:) I will update after coin is received and re-submitted to PCGS. I have some other stuff getting submitted along with it. Like, a couple nice looking 2015 roosie dimes from a certain set, wink, wink. Also, a morgan and a MS red Indian (I hope).

I agree with commems that it doesn't really need to be resubmitted to CAC. Now if it had a Gold CAC sticker, it would.

pretty conservative grading thought it could be 66 or 65+

OK, So I was unaware that PCGS would still try to stick me with a $10 handling fee and a $22.95 S/H fee along with the $12 reholder fee even though I am submitting a bunch of other stuff with it. Should I just crack it out and submit it raw and take the gamble for a 66?

Should I just crack it out and submit it raw and take the gamble for a 66? Yes, the standard fees and two-way shipping expenses on all orders can add up. That's why it rarely makes sense to submit just one or two coins unless they are fairly expensive pieces (or you purchased them well below their market value). It sounds like you plan to submit multiple coins, so at least the S/H fee for your submission will be spread over multiple coins. Personally, I would not crack your coin out and submit it raw. Even if it were to come back with a MS-66 grade (a somewhat unlikely outcome considering that CAC agreed with the original PCGS grade), the selling price differential between a 65 and 66 would largely (if not completely) be swallowed up by the grading fee which is much more than the $12 re-holder fee.

If the total fee cost is $44, it is probably not justified to get it re slabbed. If you don't intend to sell it, just put it in a ex British Royal Mint Half Crown acrylic screw capsule. My local coin store sells these for 50c. |

Well done ... PCGS MS66 is a lovey grade indeed. I would NOT re-submit for the CAC green beanie. David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |
