I haven't posted grading results in probably 7-8 years and was reminiscing of the good ole days on the forum when people would post their submissions regularly. It still happens, but seems to be more of disappointment with the current grading standards or just less frequently. Was always a good community rally when someone would post, so here goes. Was overall happy with the results...
The Cepeda was a BGS 9.5 crackout. I really wanted a 10 here to add to that set. I have submitted 3-4 of the Cepedas and all come back 9's. I have all 10's except for this one and the Willie Mays. The Sanders was pack-pulled 3-4 years ago from a case (2 were pulled, sold one and graded one).
The Nemechek white is numbered of 5/5 and the Nemechek Purple 24/35. Both were pulled from cheap retail last year. The Donald and the Hopkins were pack pulled at the time of release and were sitting in boxes. Was glad to see 10's on those.
The Evans is numbered 077/199 and same as above, pulled at the time of release. The Royce Lewis was pulled at Lucky Box Sports Cards (Cornelius NC) last year. Serial #'d 4/5, will hold this one to see if he reaches his potential with the Twins. Should be a 40HR/120RBI guy if he can stay healthy. The Manning and Favre were both pulled along with the Barry Sanders above. These were in the preview packs and I opened them just a few months back. The Manning is Pop 6 with one higher, the Favre is a Pop 3.

Nice sub Mike. The Finest moment set sounds killer. Hope you can figure out a way to nail that Cepeda.

Thanks Mike. Been working on that one for @ 20 years. Just got the Duke Snider to pop in a 10 a few months ago. The Cepeda was a BGS 9.5 crackout, so that didn't work either.
All of the Topps Finest PSA 10's are either Pop 1 or 2, with one exception, George Foster is a Pop 4. Not a popular set, but nice, on card autographs of some HOF'ers. This was one of Mays last clean autos before he started to get a little shaky with the pen.

Nice Barry, love that set. Too bad some at times end up fading, yours looks strong still. Nice.

The quantum leaf gem is the most surprising. Those cards tend to always have issues. Congrats!
Great sub, congrats! I have 26 modern cards (mostly certified autos) at PSA right now, I'd be thrilled with similar results. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Nice !
