    Mechanical error.

    If you do what you always did, you get what you always got.

    Maybe its worth more like this. An example of a top tier grading company asleep at the switch!

    Looks like a label error (sometimes termed mechanical error...I do not like that term for this issue)....Cheers, RickO

    I agree. Mechanical error sounds like the machine misfired. It's a human data entry error.

    It's probably just the lighting, but it looks like the top one might be a small/large or large/small.
