    If I submitted that card it would get the ultra rare double off-center qualifier or DOC

    Probably an error in the labeling process where the intended OC qualifier was not applied.

    How is it not EOT as well? Looks like a good chunk of the card is missing too

    Definitely a mechanical error. Should be returned to PSA for correction.

    People *can* request grades with no qualifiers. Sounds like this would otherwise would be 9OC.

    I think that a card gets bumped down 2 grades without the qualifier, so this should be a 7??

    That one is confusing.

    I checked adjacent certs to see if they mixed up the "OC" with another card? No 8s of any kind near that number.

    Very generous - but I'm sure bidders will be the final decider on this one.

    Even if someone requested "No Q's" on that one?

    The centering would not allow it to be a 9OC IMO - in fact, it wouldn't even make the 75/25 required to be a lower end 7.

    edit: this card doesn't even meet the "wiggle room" standard that graders have for a card with "good eye appeal" iMO.


    << <i>From PSA Grading Standards: For example, a card that meets all of the other requirements for PSA MINT 9 and measures 60/40 off-center on the front automatically meets the PSA front centering standards for MINT 9. If a card meets all of the other requirements for PSA MINT 9 and measures 65/35 off-center on the front, it may be deemed to meet the PSA front centering standards for MINT 9 if the eye appeal of the card is good. >>

    Not sure which is more mind boggling, the grade or the fact the card was subbed at all.

    My thought exactly but of course, I have seen a poster here pay $18 to get a card graded that wouldn't sell for $18 in a 9 so....

    Mike is correct. Qualifiers are typically worth 2 grades, not 1, and in this case, I would downgrade 3 grades, lol..

    Hiya Tim

    To qualify a 5? It's got to be 85/15. I didn't measure but it's even close to be a 5?

    Maybe it is not OC and should have been MC.
