POPPAGE - Super sharp 1975 topps mini raw set

I posted this in the mini registry forum, but figured folks not watching that one might be interested too.

I scored a really nice raw complete set of minis recently that I got around to going through tonight. Some real beauties in here. You guys know how much I love the red/yellows. Here's a scan of a few of the toughies in the set. All these measure 80mm. Do I possibly have a second Montague PSA 9?

After going through the entire set, I've pulled out about 200 cards I think are worthy of grading (either worth it as an 8 or legit chance at a 9). I'm hoping to get these submitted next week. Will be sure to keep folks updated when I get the grades back.

    I second Mike's assessment. Milbourne is best of the lot.

    No chance at a 9 on Montague, imo, due to yellow strip on top and tilt. Good shot at an 8, though, if surfaces are clear with no snow.

    Brown is sharp also, but centered a bit low T/B.

    Sharp cards, Ryan!

    Cards are real nice but you never know with minis as I have sent in many in the past looking to comeback as 9s but usually 8s come back only a couple 9s.

    Nice pickup love the mini set. Would be fun to sit down and look at it as a set.

    Cards look great. Good luck with your 200+ subs. Doug

    The Melbourne is super sharp. Would be shocked if that one comes back less than a 9. The majority of the set is in the nm-mt range with some more nm and quite a few mint. Very pleased so far. We will have to see how I do on the subs. Just mailed out the package to Newport Beach an hour ago. Decided to split into two subs. 225 cards total with about 200 of them minis. Now the wait begins...

    -Posted this update to the 75 mini registry thread as well-

    Just got poppage on my 2nd set of the submission from this raw set. The 4 cards below were in the first one. Montague and Brown landed as 8s and the other two came back n6 (min size). Really please with the second sub which took a lot longer to pop (logged on 11/20).

    I highlighted a couple of the big hits. Looks like the Fred Norman is now a pop 2! This is first mini 10 that I've self subbed every. Pretty excited to finally land one. The Yount is actually a resub from the card that I pulled back in the spring from that awesome box that yielded the 9 Montague, Lockwood, Burleson and others.

    Pretty much all of these cards, save for the 2 Bretts and Yount, came from the raw set I purchased from PWCC back in November. Super pleased with how I ended up doing on this one even after over $1000 in grading fees. I'm going to be keeping the ones that upgrade my set and will likely put together a second set of graded/raw that I might try to sell together. The other dupes I'll be sure to make available to folks here.
