From my recent experience, CAC stickering has become harder than ever since CACG grading began. A speciality dealer I deal with was disappointed when only two of a box of 20 stickered.
I previously had some success stickering 5/8 coins. My local CAC dealer suggested recently that I submit 7 coins he felt had a good chance. I got 0/7. He felt that anything graded more than 5 years ago had already been through the process. I am giving up on stickering submittals, and will stick with only buying previously certified CAC coins.
I do have some CACG graded coins, and they are excellent. The plastic is very clear, and the holders have side rails to make them hard to scratch over the coin viewing areas.
I have a serious early Seated dime collection, and in 150 years of residing in a series of collections, several have probably been handled improperly at some time. These coins are often toned or crusted over so they still remain attractive. But the older coins fail certification most of the time.
