    Not all 10's are created equal? Mislabeled?

    I would hope so but this is the second 10 in the last week I've seen with glaring fisheye/s.

    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 name matches the haircut though, even if it is a "skullet".
    Always looking for OPC "tape intact" baseball wax boxes, and 1984 OPC baseball PSA 10's for my set. Please PM or email me if you have any available.

    I thought you meant a side of this type of Phish?

    I'm not bringing this up just to have the last word.

    But this comes up now and again and want to offer an opinion.

    The card in question has a "tilt" rather than a miscut/diamond cut.

    A "diamond cut" has 'non-square' rhomboid like corners while the tilt card has 90 degree/square corners.

    A diamond cut: tho exaggerated version

    With there being clear differences in quality amongst cards in a given grade, PSA is probably missing a market opportunity for a meta-grading service, where they grade already graded cards and encapsulate the slab in a larger slab. Maybe something like this.

    PSA can PM me for my PayPal deets to buy the idea off me. Please send as "gift".

    Makes sense. I actually never knew that. I just always thought of everything as diamond cut. In the future I will keep the word "tilt" in my collecting vocabulary! Thanks for the clarification image

    78s are prone to diamond cuts. Must have been some new cutters on the press at the Topps factory that year~I opened a rack a while back and almost every card in one section was cut like a parallelogram, lol..


    Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
