Can someone give me centering and opinion on grade on this beauty? It looks like a solid 7 to me but i'm not so sure if the centering will give it the dreaded OC or not.

thanks guys.

    It's a candidate for the dreaded OC.
  • 7 OC is your thought gemmy?

  • T/B centering isn't good enough for a 7, but you won't get a 7 oc. PSA doesn't give out 7 oc's anymore. If the card grades (which I wouldn't be so sure about), it would most likely be a straight 5 or 6 -- depending on what's up with that upper left corner on the reverse.

    Uses or Used?

    Adam, have you seen a card that was graded within the past few years slabbed as a 7 oc? I haven't, and my experience has been that NM cards that don't meet the centering guidelines now seem to always get put in 6, 5, and 7 MC holders (in that order -- depending on how bad the centering is). Again, I'm talking about the past few years.
