I haven't received this card back yet, this is the PSA photo. For it to be a PSA 6 - I am looking for scratch or gloss wear? Just dont understand how this is a 6. Thanks for any input.

    A little off center top to bottom, but no way that’s the reason for a 6. Must be surface, like you said.

    Based on back of Card only, I would think a 7 is absolute highest possible for a Current Year Modern card.

    It's the singer not the song - Peter Townshend (1972)

    Ok, thank you, didnt see that, kinda crappy, straight out of the pack and I made sure to handle it with care

    ALWAYS check the back. I’ve been burned several times for being too lazy to just turn the card over before subbing. It always sucks when you get the grade back.

    Unfortunately you learned what a lot of collectors have had to learn: just because a card is “pack fresh” doesn’t mean it’s “mint.” Tough way to learn though.

    Signed with the Dodgers in December of 2023 and Topps still has him as an Angel in a 2024 issue? No excuse.

    Do they still do traded series for MLB?

    2024 Topps covers the 2023 season, right? Or does it not work that way anymore?

    Where's Chaz when you need him?

    Right here....

    The back lower left & right corners already justify the grade without even closer inspection... plus edge chipping top and bottom on the back.... not in love with that lower right corner on the front either which turns out to be the lower left corner on the back which is bad.....
