How does PSA treat corner dings? I have an example below that I've enlarged 750% (actual size of the scan is .16" x .14"). Whats the best grade I could hope for?

    A PSA NM 7 There may be slight fraying on some corners.

    A PSA EX-MT 6 Corners may have slightly graduated fraying.

    A PSA EX-5 cards, very minor rounding of the corners is becoming evident.

    A PSA VG-EX 4 card's corners may be slightly rounded.

    A PSA VG 3 card reveals some rounding of the corners, though not extreme.

    A PSA Good 2 card's corners show accelerated rounding and surface wear is starting to become obvious.

    A PSA Fair 1.5 card's corners will show extreme wear, possibly affecting framing of the picture.

    I've had cards with dings like that come back as a 4 and as a 7. Depends on the card issue and age, and maybe how the rest of the card looks. Can you post the whole card with a dark background?
