Any shot at 10s?

The Ozzie obviously doesn't with the oil stain along the top border, but I was curious how much that would detract from the grade. Could it still get a straight 9 or would it be more like a 9(ST), straight 8 or worse? Just trying to calibrate my pre-grading on these 82s. The set I got is super sharp for the most part, but centering is all over and PD impacts a lot of the centered cards.

If only expecting 9s, it seems that only top tier stars and those with zero 10s are worth submitting.

    It looks like the Raines has a smudge on the upper right. The centering looks really nice on the scans. Good luck.

    Yeah, I noticed that one too after I posted. That one won't be submitted. It's amazing what scanning cards shows that can get overlooked in hand, I was just happy to see it centered.

    Smith will get ST qualifier, IMO.
