Grade these for PSA

Again I have some cards that I am asking for your opinions on PSA grades. My guess is an 8.5 to 9 on Payton and Carew (because of up down centering) and maybe a 9 on the Schmidt LMK thanks for helping me train my eye

The Carew and Payton both might be OC?? 8 on the Schmidt, corners look soft, maybe??

Payton and Carew will get you 8's with that centering

tsalems1 · January 6, 2014 8:13AM

Im thinking 8,8,8

agreed.

so with better centering up down are we then looking at 9s and to receive a 10 the card needs to be centered all around? what is the ratio 55/45? does both back and front need to be centered for a 10? thanks for the help everyone

for a 10, 60/40 front and I think 75/25 back, no staining front or back. And they do allow(as stated on their guidelines page) a slight printing imperfection. I've got a couple of Scott Stevens that back that up

55/45 for the front. Anything between 55/45 and 60/40 is more discretionary and usually requires much stronger attributes elsewhere to compensate for the centering (similar to 65-35 centered cards getting a 9).

Honestly, I see a 7 on Carew or an 8 oc.

ClockworkAngel · January 6, 2014 11:00AM

Carew 9OC
Schmidt 8.5
Payton 8

Bosox1976 · January 6, 2014 11:26AM

8/9/8

I'd say around an 8 for Carew and Payton, the Schmidt looks like a possible 10, obviously I can't tell 100% on corners and surface but should be at least 9.

Carew: 8 (OC)
Schmidt: 8.5
Payton: 8 (OC)

Why even grade them? It would cost more to grade than they'd be worth. You couldn't get $5 for the Schmidt even if a 9.

Csmontie · January 6, 2014 9:06PM

Elvis I wasnt going to grade them, I put them out for opinions to help train my eye, since I have had little to no luck getting cards back at the grade I assumed. Thanks for all the insight everyone
