    The left corners look fuzzy. Given that and the centering I'd guess 6, maybe 5. Hard to say from a scan.

    I think that seller needs a bigger font.

    Not totally sure but a guess:

    Good day - 7.

    Bad day - 6.

    Good luck

    A seven should pull <> $45-50 on eBay.

    6 - that upper left corner looks beyond "touched". Maybe 5.

    Looks like a 6 to me. I dont think it has a chance at a 7, and on a bad day it could get a 5.

    Still a really nice looking card. 5's and 6's from that era are a great bargain when they have the eye appeal.

    I would say a 6, top left, bottom left corners are fuzzy. IMO.
  • stownstown Posts: 11,321 ✭✭✭
    Corners look pretty rough for a 7 imo.

    Think it's a 5 or 6, depending on how it looks in hand.

    In regards to the SMR - 30 40 65 150 600

    I'd say a 6. Here's my 7 for comparison:

    I track my cards' values by recording completed auctions on eBay. Since August, 2006 (when my '60 Gibson was graded), 12 PSA 7's have closed with an average hammer of $52.34 and 8 bids per auction. However, this average is skewed high because of an outlier (a perfectly centered example went for $152.50). If I toss that auction, the other 11 ranged from a minimum of $36.31 to a max of $49.99 for an average of $43.23.

    I'm tracking over 225 PSA graded baseball cards (Topps HOFers 1955-1975, most are 7s and 8s). If anyone would like to check a particular card just ask and if I'm tracking it, I'll share the data with you.
