Post the nicest PSA 7 you've ever seen (or owned)

Exodus

This one takes the cake for me. Who's next ?

PaulMaul

I thought this one was pretty nice...

this is mine, the foil surface is nearly scuff free and is indistinguishable between it and my PSA 8. corner wear did it in. I paid more for this 7 than other listed because of its near perfect foil surface.

This is probably the best-looking 7 in my card collection

sinoth23

Sweet cards all around. Those 61s are tough to find with high eye appeal, due to centering and PD issues. That's a beaut.

7 is a lucky number. Yes, I am cheating with the Koosman 7.5 but it is probably my favorite card

!

One more centered 7

HighGradeLegends

No longer own it, but nicest i have ever possessed.

Francart

Nice cards!

RookieHOFers

This would be the best one I have.

mintonlypls

Matt...beautiful color and registration on the '57 Mantle. Centered as well...bump candidate to a 7.5!

addicted2ebay

Was happy to pick this one up last year

BunchOBull

Always thought these were pretty sharp.

1964 Maris is one of my favorite cards, I've always been fond of this copy, never felt the need to upgrade

I couldn't pick just one so I'll post my three favorite PSA 7s.

brad31

Not the best photo but I prefer this to the majority of 8s I see.

KendallCat

I believe this is the only 7 I own - all of my other grades are either 8/8.5’s or PSA 4’s - 6.5’s.

SWEET Palmer. That is one of those baseball cards where it all just came together; the blurry background, the blue and the green, the way his eyes match the sky. Just a great looking baseball card. The player himself wasn't too shabby, either. Nasty stats.

Looks like old Baltimore stadium in the background. Just by looking at the outfield stands. I don't believe they were seats. They were like football stands ?

Every card in this thread is undergraded. These have been fun to look at.

Wow. I’d be thrilled to own any of these beauties.

The old adage applies.....buy the card......

SOM

That '62 Killebrew is the most undergraded card I've seen in years!

orioles93

I like this one to.

Piggs

Unfortunately had to sell many of my '51 panels but held onto this one. Nice cards everyone.

Thanks Monte, I’ve been looking for a nice 57 for a long time. I wish I knew how to put a scan into these threads, I only know how to attach them.

RookieHOFers

There are some amazing cards being shown. Everyone has such a strong eye these days! Wow

mintonlypls

Matt..I save a scan to my desktop...then click and drag the scan from my desktop to the comment window in CU. It will show up as characters after clicking and dragging to the window...but after posting comment...you have your scanned image on the board.

RookieHOFers

Let’s see if this works!

RookieHOFers

Thanks Monte for the help!

Here is one I like. It’s up for sale not mine.

Nicest 7 I've ever owned:

yoda99

My 1969 Nolan Ryan, 1962 Lou Brock, and 1966 Gale Sayers come to mind.

There must have been some graders that woke up on the wrong side of the bed!

Thanks, I have an 8 in my set and this one looks better. 9's are rare in this year. I figured another 8 would be as low as this card would grade.

WOW!

1954

Man these are all very nice cards. IMO I think three are under graded and the rest are correctly graded. The Killebrew is a great card but honestly I see why they gave it a 7. Looks like surface wear on the card along with print defects. The centering and corners are 9 quality. The 64 Rose, Munson, 55Mays and Jeter are the cards I would have an issue with being in a PSA 7 holder. But all of these cards are extremely high end for sure.

ClockworkAngel

Love these kinds of threads. Some amazing beauties I'd take over most 8's

A couple favorites:

Wow, you must have cringed a little when someone got that one away from you.

5 years from now I will regret it

Funny thing is I don’t do 7’s. I try to find 4’s/5’s that look like 8’s but have a small flaw or crease, 6.5’s since they look like 8’s sometimes from a centering perspective, and 8’s and 8.5’s for high end cards.

Dand522612

Totally agree on the technique, however sometimes a 7 to 7.5 can be the best of both worlds.

62 Killebrew;

Print defects.....yes. Surface problems........none. My 66 Killer is a 9 with a big ugly print blob.

Maybe never get a 8.5 or 9 but that Killebrew is too nice to be a 7.

Rose and Munson certainly are undergraded, harder to tell on the Mays, the scan looks a little blurry to me.

For some reason my eye does not do well with 7/7.5’s. I think I do better in the 4/5 range and 6.5 range.

I just picked up a PSA 7 card I have had in my watch list for 5 or 6 months, but I'll post my in hand favorites.
