What does (PD) mean under the grade of a PSA card?

How much does it increase/decrease value of a regular same grade card?

Thanks

    PD (Print Defect):
    Cards with significant printing defects will be designated "PD."


    May deduct 2 grades for pricing.

    Does deduct 2 grades for Registry purposes.

    Actually PSA 9 PDs tend to go for more than PSA 8's, so the price deduction is usually not even a full grade. It's a shame PSA deducts 2 grades for PDs for registry purposes, because that deduction does not align with true value. For other qualifiers, such as OC, it's a different story.

When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."
