from a recent poppage, one of my 63 Bev Hillbillies got Min Grade (oc) and looks just like the other 6 i sent in which rec 6's and 7's which i was expecting--anybody know what in the world this means? all the borders are fine front and back--a head scratcher

    it was sent in raw like the others--if it helps i can scan-- really puzzled by this--thanks

    EDITED: to add that i looked on the submission form to make sure nothing was inadvertantly added for a min grade--nothing on there

    I think my reading comprehension is very low this week... so you're saying the card came back not graded, and had a "Min Grade (OC)" note on it?

    Then what's the certification number?

    When you say case, you mean a holder? Or a CS with a red cert?


    I have seen them before, but only if a card I wanted to grade at a certain level

    did not meet the min requirement. The OC was the reason in this case.

    Generally I'll get them for MC N9 I think it is.

    This what I think he is talking about.

    For some reason the grader thought this specific card had a min grade.

    Good for you.

    That has got to be a flip error.

    I agree, I've never seen anything like it. I'd contact customer service.
  • sivotco1sivotco1 Posts: 119
    ok--when LSU said that, made me think that maybe the grader got it in their head that the min grade was a 5 after seeing delcared value of 5--the rest were 6's and 7's so a 6(oc) would be a 4 and not meet min req of 5--how does that sound?

    The graders don't see your paperwork.

    Have you contacted anyone in customer service yet?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can only write a "Minimum Grade Request" if you're using their Crossover Service.

    Sounds logical...only it is a labeler error, not the grader.

    In either case, you are likely best leaving it in the funky case, perhaps? Better slabbed funny then not slabbed?
