What did I miss

I sent this in with some other cards and was hoping you can tell me what I missed. It was graded a PSA 5?? All corners of the card and edges are sharp! There are print dots on the middle of the card but not enough to mark it down 5 grades. I know it is a bad pic but hopefully some can see something I didn't. This card was the whole reason I sent in cards now. I did good on some other but this honestly has me pretty angry I was expecting absolutely no worse than an 8 and expecting a 9. Sorry for the ramble. I don't do that. But I'm not happy.

    Most likely a tiny surface wrinkle. Look at it under bright light for a while and if you see what looks like a little wrinkle that was the reason.
  • yea, sounds like a wrinkle. PSA 5 is the max you can get with wrinkles

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince the PSA 10 collector he didn't exist.

    Thanks for the responses. Hope I can see it when I get it back, so I know what to look for. I thought I covered every inch of that card. Oh well. I did get a Desert Shield Griffey Jr. PSA 9 and a Andrew Luck PSA 10, so won't complain to much.

  • Agree with the wrinkle theory. But I've gotten a 6 on a card with a surface wrinkle, although it was an early 70s card.
