Grade Opinions

Full Disclosure:
This card is likely to be either for sale soon or going back for review.

I can't decide which.

So....I'd appreciate your thoughts on it...assuming you don't already know it's grade.

Thanks in advance.

    Pretty sure I know the grade so I'm out on that. Good luck with your sale or review!

    Could use a higher-resolution photo as the corners are hard to make out, but would guess a 4.5 or 5.

    5
  • Based off that blurry picture alone, I dont see why that cant be a 6. I have seen Mantles in that condition look like a 6. PSA 7, not a chance. Corners look too touched. Goodluck.

    I'd bet on 5, however I agree with Dnice that based solely on the scan shown, I see nothing to keep it from being a 6.

    Assuming no hidden wrinkles, back paper loss, etc. and without trying to look it up, I lean towards 5.5, or 6. image

    I'll go with a very solid 5.

    I'd say 4, mainly because I think its a 5+.

    Thanks guys. Helpful. Largely what I expected, but the scan probably didn't help. It's a 5.5, which given feedback, I think is probably the right grade. But in hand it presents closer to a 6 and is better than a lot of 6s I've viewed, which prompted the question...but I'm likely biased. I'm not sure a half grade bump is worth the review risk in this case.

    Thanks again.
