Jan 2024:
There have been no changes since July. Please read below for the latest information. Thank you.
July 24, 2023 Update
Since early June, the NGC Registry program has been unable to use CAC’s tool to verify whether a coin has received a CAC sticker. Therefore, there has been a score imbalance for CAC coins in the NGC Registry.
Effective July 25, 2023, CAC-stickered coins will receive the same point score in the NGC Registry as coins certified by NGC and PCGS. This includes CAC coins that were already in the NGC Registry receiving a score "bonus;" those "extra" points for the CAC sticker will be removed.
This change will help to ensure a more level playing field for all participants in the NGC Registry.
NGC has been informed by CAC that the connectivity to their verification site will be resolved in the future. At that point, collectors should be able to verify their CAC-stickered coins again in the NGC Registry. (Then the CAC icon will appear again in the NGC Registry.) There will be no point "bonus" going forward for CAC stickers.
NGC has not yet made any decision about whether to accept CAC-graded coins in the NGC Registry because the service is still not widely available. If and when there is a decision to accept CAC-graded/slabbed coins, we will post an announcement at that time.
July 12, 2023 Update
**The NGC Registry software connection to the CAC verification site is still severed. We will post any information as it becomes available. Thank you for your patience.
It has recently come to our attention that the NGC Registry program is no longer able to access the CAC verification site. Therefore, we are unable to verify any newly added CAC coins nor award them any (additional) NGC Registry score points. We will post more information as it becomes available to us. Thank you for your patience.
