Coins approved by the Certified American Coins (CAC) and coins encapsulated by the CACG brought premiums in public sales during the month of March 2025. Here are 10 examples selected from a larger number of results that could have been listed.

Coins in CAC Holders

1. 1937 Buffalo Nickel Proof in PR67

On March 2, at 4:49:30 PM Pacific Time, GreatCollections sold a CACG-certified Proof-67 1937 Buffalo Nickel for $2,585. Six seconds later, at 4:49:36 PM, GreatCollections sold a PCGS-certified Proof-67 1937 Buffalo Nickel, without a CAC sticker, for $1,394.80. On March 18, Heritage sold a different PCGS-certified Proof-67 1937 Buffalo Nickel, without a CAC sticker, for $1,560.

2. 1795 ‘Two Leaves’ Flowing Hair Silver Dollar in F12

On March 2, DLRC sold a CAC-approved Fine-12 grade 1795 ‘Two Leaves’ Flowing Hair Silver Dollar for $7,651. This coin is not of a rare die pairing.

On November 21, 2024, Stack’s Bowers auctioned a PCGS-graded F12 1795 ‘Two Leaves’ Flowing Hair Dollar, without a CAC sticker, for $5,280. On Nov. 10, GreatCollections sold a PCGS-graded F15 1795 ‘Two Leaves’ Flowing Hair Dollar, without a CAC sticker, for $6,892.60.

A CAC-approved F12 grade coin thus brought more than a non-CAC, PCGS-graded F15 1795 ‘Two Leaves’ dollar.

3. 1880 Shield Nickel Proof in PR66CAM

On March 5, Stack’s Bowers sold a CAC-approved, PCGS-certified Proof-66 Cameo 1880 Shield Nickel for $1,200. On Nov. 27, Heritage sold a PCGS-certified Proof-66 Cameo 1880 Shield Nickel, without a CAC sticker, for $720. Market levels for these were not higher in March 2025 than they were in late November 2024.

4. 1881 Seated Liberty Half Dollar Proof in PR64

On March 5, Stack’s Bowers sold a CAC-approved, PCGS-certified Proof-64 1881 half dollar for $1,800. On August 18, 2024, Heritage auctioned a PCGS-certified Proof-65 1881 half dollar for $1,620. Although market levels for these are a little higher in March than they were in August, a Proof-65 1881 half is usually estimated to be worth at least 30% more than an 1881 half dollar that was certified as Proof-64 by the same grading service.

The point here is that, on March 5, a CAC stickered, PCGS-certified Proof-64 coin brought significantly more than a non-CAC, PCGS-certified Proof-65 1881 half realized less than seven months earlier.

5. 1935-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar in MS64

On March 5, Stack’s Bowers sold a CAC-approved, NGC-graded MS64 1935-S half dollar for $1,140. The day before, Heritage sold a PCGS-graded MS64 1935-S half dollar, without a CAC sticker, for $930.
