1954 Topps Borders and Ernie Banks Rookie Card

The 1954 Topps Ernie Banks rookie card is one of my favorite cards. I've noticed that there has been a decent number of eBay lately in grades PSA 5 or higher, to wit:

PSA 6 for $500.01

PSA 6 for $525.00

PSA 7 for $1,345.00

PSA 5 for $361.01

PSA 6 for $546.04

I can never recall how much space there should be at the top or along the edges for perfect centering T/B and L/R. Fortunately, I came across a scan for a Banks rookie in PSA 10 a while ago. In theory, the scan demonstrates how much spacing there should be around the card. On the first scan below, I can't believe that card didn't receive an OC qualifier. There's almost no spacing at the top.

    Psa is all over the place with 54 Topps and OC qualifiers or net graded down.

    I recently had a sub where a few received 7 or 8 OC.

    I wish I'd bought the one for $361, that was a steal.
