Dont know if this topic has come up before? Just wondering about a small mark on EVERY OPC Deckle card I have. I have purchased several over the last few months and all have a mark on the front. I was told by a dealer at a local show that this was a common occurance with this issue and that the mark was from the printing press when it was spitting out the cards??? Anyone know if this is the case. My cards are from several different sources and bought at different times, and all have this mark. Any info would be helpful. Thanks-Claude ps: I have a bunch of Topps Deckles and none have the mark???

Interesting and quite a bit of a surprise. Any idea what caused it?

<< <i> Also, if they all have it, does PSA grade consider it when grading?? (I actually bought a few of them at a card show and didn't notice the marks when I bout them...saw them later when I got them home!) >>
Yes - even if it is a 'typical' printing defect - the technical grade is still what it should be. There may be one or two examples out there that do not have that defect, first of all, and, secondly, it is sort of a non-issue, in that if the highest possible grade is a 5 - then if you have the 5, you can still have the 'nicest' set.
