Like pct over CAC / CACG CDN CPG? Or whatever. Me easily 15 Pct (over CACG CPG MV). Just had to have it.
Not opposed to them in any way, just not in a purchasing phase of the hobby right now. I’m going with 0 for now.
I buy the coin based on my eye appeal. So I'll not be buying any soon paying the frequent high premium those beans bring. The savings simply go towards other coins I'm looking for.
I haven't bought any CACG yet. My most recent purchase had a green bean on a PCGS slab. It had no bearing on whether I wanted the coin or how much I was willing to pay. Nor does anybody else's slab or sticker. The funny thing about my recent purchase is that the same year/mint coin in the same grade in an NGC slab with no sticker sold in a different auction on the same day for 17% more. So if you want to cherrypick data points, the green bean made my coin 17% less valuable.
Ha! Maybe a long time ago, someone gave me one or I bought without noticing it then, I would not buy it just due to the decoration sticker. Like buying a car that is exactly the same as the other but $3000 more because someone added a shiny "DeluxeSpecial "Insignia where the other just said "deluxe" . IMO
Around $200. It was a proof Indian 1c in a PCGS slab with a green sticker. It had a nice carbon spot scraped off. I was told PCGS bought the coin back under their grade guarantee. All Hail the infallible JA.
Same here, I have some coins with green beans but whether or not a coin has a bean does not enter into my decision to purchase.
I know I will see more of them at Summer FUN. The pieces I saw at Winter FUN were at premium prices. The one I considered for a nano second was conservatively graded, but the premium price more than offset that.
