My concerns when I first heard of this concepts were:

1. What will they do about the current problem of sticker-shock ?
2. Can I get a sticker that will vouch for the reliability of the first sticker ?
3. Should we maybe start collecting stickers? Should I look for variants (double dies, offset strikes, etc.) on the stickers? These errors will probably only occur in the first year and will be SCARCE and RARE .

I think I will just go back to coin collecting

Dumb. Doesn't matter if it has a sticker or not. The BUYER decides whether they like the coin or not. If someone's buying the slab and not the coin, then they really don't care how the coin looks like, so a little sticker won't matter. When someone buys the coin and not the slab, they don't need a sticker. I don't think this CAC business is going to last.

In 'an Apples in, Apples out company' fewer middle-men mean cheaper Apples, the same theory applies to coins.

Additionally, learning to certify and grade for yourself will save you more money than you can imagine, meaning you can buy more coins...

i got banned from the other forum for this very statment. cac is a joke just like the first strike bs.


its just a way to get more money. such bs. I wont allow any coins I have to be crapped up with a stupid sticker. I called out a big money guy for cac and he cried to the mods. little girl. sorry touchy subject with me.




I for one call for the death of cac and anything related.


such a waste of time, money, energy, and common sense.


i hate cac. I hate cac. I hate cac!

From what I heard, slabs with the CAC stickers were doing well at the FUN show.


Might be because people were able to easily spot these coins amongst a sea of slab. The coins probably sold themselves and not the sticker. If I was a dealer, I could just place stickers on certain good looking coins and they would sell themselves.

Who needs them. If it's the forum that I'm thinking about, I lurk there somethings. It seems that everyone's mentality there is to be the smartest in the room and 90% of the posts are them just bragging or trying to influence the market somehow. CC is a much better place.
