Here's what one happy customer had to say about CACA.

''I used this company and my ancient coin looks incredible. I paid for the Basic package, and I'm elated with the results of the spit rag cleaning-as they say 'nothing say's ancient like spit rag cleaning'. I'm so happy I'm sending my ancient coin back, so I can get a smiley sticker and a unique barcode. Thank-you CACA, for making my day.''-awallin01

"I used to crack my ancient coins out of slabs. After seeing the quality of the product the CACA Corporation has to offer, I'm even more enthusiastic. From now on all my slabs will be genuine CACA stickered." -willyb

Thank you, willyb! By the way, we are beta-testing a new cleaning system. Due to non-disclosure I can't give details, but let's just say "electricity". If you'd like to be a beta tester please indicate this on your next order and we'll give you an upgrade voucher for "Unique barcode" with your next order!

Now I realise what true value is.

I will seek to sell of my Byzantine Solidii and use the money to get my Late Roman Bronzes certified by C.A.C.A.

Surely the Bar Code IIIIIIIII and Smiley sticker on the easy-open Slabs for my LRB's will more than pay for the cost.

I am c*ck-a-hoop for C.A.C.A.!

Excellent, masis! Another COINfident collector. I'm sure you will be pleased with your wise decision. Your glowing assessment has been added to CACA's Facebook page.

And FYI, as we replied on FB:


Quote:
Whoa there, Masis! Don't toss out your solidi so quickly. We are rolling out a new special service for old gold coins... a deep cleaning with aqua regia. If you'd like to be a beta tester, just send us your old gold coins! We'll have them looking just like authentic aged LRBs in no time!
