What do you think this Mantle will Grade

I'm pretty sure the little hump in the left side will come out with a little weight left on the card for a bit, not paper break or anything else.
Counting & not Counting what do you think he will grade?
Sharp corners Great Color Nice Centering, but as owner I'm Bias.

    Maybe pull a 7.

    In the card back, is that a wrinkle over the LE in Mantle's name? If so, I will say a 5. If not and the hump evens out, I will say a 7. No matter what grade may be, the card is really nice.

    Nice card, but is that a stain on the right side of the card? You can see it a bit more clearly on the back where it says 1957.

    Looks like the warping on the card might keep it from grading 7-8. Did this card get water damaged? I am going to guess between a 4-6. If that is a wrinkle on the back it will probably come back a 4. Good luck. Here is my PSA 4. It has one touched corner. Still cannot figure out why it got only a 4. Must be something I cannot see.

    Looks like a binder ring warping on the edge... I'd say 4 as a result. Very nice otherwise - easy 7+

    Looks like a 6 to me.

    Light horizontal crease on the upper right on the back along with the bump, I'd say 4 to 5 range. Good luck.

    When I looked at the obverse, I thought 6 or 7 - hard to see the corners on my laptop.

    But, on the reverse - is that a bow on the left side? If so? We're probably in the 4 - 5 arena.
