    I wish they would fix the preview.

    Beautiful eye appeal for a 2. Can't imagine a nicer card for the grade.

    And no, it's not mine. Personally, I wouldn't pay this much for a 2.

    Totally agree. Regrade?

    the front is very nice but if you look closely on the back their is couple huge creases in the back of that card. I wonder if this will start a trend of low grade 52 mantles rising in price

    I'd have that thing regraded in a heartbeat

    but the problem is that it's going to sell for the price of a 4 or 4.5 so there's no value. You'd be lucky to get a bump to a 3, but it still would sell for much more than most 3's

    I don't think it would regrade higher then a 2.5 that mantle has some major creasing in the back look closely at the back you will see a large vertical crease the runs across the card

    A lot of money for the grade but that is gorgeous for a 2.

    Heavy crease(s) on the back and a bit of the "crease wear" shows on the front surface from the chin downward. Even soaked and pressed, it would be hard to see this in anything higher than a $10K PSA 4. It is a huge price to pay with the hopes of making it a $5K profit by MAYBE getting it to a PSA 5...

    if the card could be soaked and pressed it wouldn't be on ebay in a pwcc auction in a 2 holder. that vertical crease on the back is way to big to be pressed out.

    also their seems to be some indentations on the front left border that alone would keep at a 3
