Rate my Precious Iverson Please

Recent pick up. Foil has curled some on the bottom right corner. Could this grade 8 if everything else was perfect?

    Grader might say "paper loss" and drop to 5, or 6. nice card.

    Doesn't look like the foil curved, looks like the foil has been worn off! I see paper....

    I would put it at a 6. The corner is too far gone and looks way out of place on a modern card.

    The foil on the precious metals that year was incredibly fragile.

    Thank you everyone. My first photo wasn't the best light/angle. In person you can see the foil got pushed up a little from the corner. It however is still sharp-ish

    A little? If the foil is still there, get a needle and put it back! The corner looks trapezoidal... The more we look at it, the uglier it gets!

    I got scared of a PSA 6 and sent this to the other company and received a No Sub Grade 8.5.
    I sent it in "Premium Submissions Approximately 10-15+ Business Days. "

    They turned it in 1 day.

    Wow, a BGS 8.5 is stupendous! Maybe it just looks way worse with the close up enlarged images we saw. If you are selling, it is a great hot potato candidate for PWCC. I guess it was graded 7.5 on the corners and 9.5 on everything else, or however they do it when no subs. Maybe you should cross it min 7 ;)

    An 8.5 with Subs went for $810 at the beginning of the year.
