Im thinking that I cant miss a PSA 8 on this card, it's that sharp. I want to know, maybe from a strong 1962 submitter, if those 2 tiny specks at the bottom will stop it from being a PSA 8?

Nick, you mean the white on the bottom corners?

nam812 · January 6, 2008 12:02PM

<< Nick, you mean the white on the bottom corners? >>

Yes.

Leiascards · January 6, 2008 12:02PM

7 I think there is too much white showing on 3 of the 4 corners

vintagetoppsguy · January 6, 2008 12:03PM

I personally think it's a PSA 7

SidePocket · January 6, 2008 12:08PM

I think it's a maybe depending on if the white is caused by wear. Sometimes the corners are better in person than in a scan too.

Bosox1976 · January 6, 2008 12:09PM

75% likelihood of an 8, 25% likelihood of a 7 - IMHO. I've submitted a couple hundred 62's.

I was recently disappointed with this one Nick...

nam812 · January 6, 2008 12:12PM

You were one of the guys I was hoping to hear from Mike.

SidePocket · January 6, 2008 12:12PM

Bosox, that's messed up coming back as a 7. Resub no doubt, but you shouldn't have to.

Bosox1976 · January 6, 2008 12:14PM

I was hoping for a 9.

Because of the recent move toward different (tougher) standards, there is a chance that Nick's card will come back a 7 - but it is NM/MT without a doubt.

OAKESY25 · January 6, 2008 12:36PM

I agree with bosox.. looks like it qualifies by grading "standards" as an 8..
but most likely gets a 7.. especially nowadays

nam812 · January 6, 2008 12:47PM

Well we'll know soon enough because im going to submit it tomorrow on the $13/5 special. If its an 8 I will make a few bucks, and if its a 7 I will lose a few bucks.

baseballfanatic · January 6, 2008 12:52PM

Gotta go with a 7. Sorry

nam812 · January 6, 2008 12:53PM

<< Gotta go with a 7. Sorry >>

Don't be. That's why I ask the membership for it's opinions.

DavidPuddy · January 6, 2008 12:59PM

You sure that's not a 54??

onlyanumber · January 6, 2008 1:05PM

I'd say 8. I've seen 8s that look worse...

nam812 · January 23, 2008 9:20AM

Well my sub popped today, and PSA says that its an 8.

A PSA 8 of this card on eBay just sold for $160.28 on Sunday night.

Thanks to all those that gave their opinions.

No Mike, Im happy with the 8, and I dont want to get greedy. My dad always said "Pigs get fed, but hogs get slaughtered."
