Probably didn't want the qualifier. Even with that said, it looks like a PSA 5 without the stain. I would have thought that the stain would have knocked it down to a 2 or so (without the qualifier)
I don't know, that looks like a straight up water stain to me. you can see on the back where it is not smooth. probably should not be a 5 in any case but when you are talking sub $50 , sub NM cards in vintage commons I think many more errors are made

Water stains like the one in that auction generally get a lower grade.
Kirk, it has been my experience that the ST qualifier is reserved for wax/gum stains.

Ah, get it, so it would just affect the grade.
and Cracker Jacks the ST designation is entirely forgiven...
Maybe someone with knowledge regarding CJ's will chime in regarding them.
It has been my experience that Bowmans since so many have a stain
1 card packs and all that, has created a phenomena that "allows" them
to hardly ever get (again, at least in my experience) the ST qualification.
