So then what CAC actually does, Scenario here: take 2 MS60 coins and sticker the one that looks better at MS60 than the other one?? Is there a line that they draw between the 2 coins?? In other words, are they using a scale of say MS60, 60.1, 60.2, etc to get to MS61?? So an MS60 coin would possibly get a sticker if it was say MS60.8 ?? They say they use strict standards but do not state what those standards are.

 

Short answer: Yes, and yes they do!

 

Involved answer: As is well known in the industry, expert graders use letters to describe where a coin sits within its grade. A is a high-end coin, B is middle, and C is low end. CAC states that they Green-sticker coins that are A and B for the assigned grade, and Gold-sticker those that are under-graded, outright.
