Grading question.

Can an otherwise flawless sports card that's off-center receive a PSA-10(OC) grade?

    theres no such thing as a PSA 10 with an OC qualifier, or any qualifier for that matter. a card thats otherwise a 10 but is OC will be a 9.

    From a June 24th PSA blog post:

    "As an example, let’s consider two cards that are both mint, one mildly off-center, and the other one significantly off-center. Historically, both cards would have earned a grade of 9(OC), unless the submitter specifically requested “No Qualifiers.” Moving forward, the mint card with mild centering issues would grade a PSA 7 or PSA 8 as opposed to being a 9(OC). In other words, the centering would be reflected in the numerical grade. However, in the case of the mint card with significant centering issues, the grading staff may decide to apply a qualifier, assigning the card a 9(OC) rather than dropping the grade all the way to a PSA 4 or PSA 5."

    A 10 is considered perfect..... "Most of the time"
