i am sending in a card for grading that has a checklist on the back of the card. at one time, littl ehash marks in bencil were made on the checklist. they have since been erased, but yo ucan still see faint marks.
the card would otherwise grade a 5 if not for this.. how would these marks effect the grade?

    You will get a MK qualifier. The grade should be the same.

    Probably depends on how well it was erased!

    MK qualifier at PSA.

    No deduction at SGC if erased cleanly and there is no indentation.

    I sent in a card to PSA with an erased pencil mark (Someone drew a moustache and goatee on my 1959 Mantle #10)....PSA graded it as ALTERED STOCK and it was returned unholdered with a loss of grading fees.
