Thoughts on this '61 Fleer Big O?

Currently a BGS 8...thoughts on what it could cross to with PSA 8? I don't know the '61 fleers well, so any insight on what this would cross to (or if there might be issues crossing at all) would be appreciated. Not my scan so I can't improve at all, sorry.

Here is another PSA 8 - PSA 8 #2
Looking for rare Randy Moss rookies and autos, as well as '97 PMG Red Football cards for my set.

    For you...a PSA 9!

    Ok...maybe not but I think an 8 is not out of the question for sure.

    Hard to tell with that picture and my eyes, but the top 2 corners look 7ish to me.

    Yeah - the scan blows. Would prefer to see in hand since the entire card has a fuzzy haze to it. Still think I might make an offer for a low 8 value. THe first PSA 8 auction I listed did not have great centering, so hoping this could be closer to the second one which sold for over 1500. The image looks very clean which I know can be a problem. Would just hate for it to not cross. If it got a straight 8 I think I could make money at my offer price.

    7 at best
    Does anybody else think the top border is a tad thin?

    I think it crosses in a crack out submission.

    Just looking at the corners Pete. The scan isn't the best in the world, and maybe the card will look better in hand.

    Unfortunately, '61 Fleers will tend to run short (as it appears this one does) and if they're in another company's holder, you'll have a tough time crossing them.

    Thanks, all. Probably stay away for the time being as too many questionmarks with that scan. I have a feeling it would be fine, but why chance it.
