    Tells me that Beckett did not care that the reverse is almost a MC.

    is there a hairline crease anywhere? If there are no other flaws besides the cut and corner wear, I can see Beckett saying that's a 6.5 - it looks like a bunch of older 6.5's that I have from them. What do you think PSA saw that had it as a 4?

    Have no clue how PSA gave that card a 4. Absolutely NO creases or corner flaws. Few smudges on the back--but that front's a blazer huh!!!

    Thanks!

    Cracked out the PSA 4 Mickey and sent it to beckett with a slabbed PSA 4 Spahn from same set (had a dent in it) that they busted back to a 3.5!! Go figure but I'll make that swap every time!!

    Maybe PSA saw it as a 6MC?

    If you send the Mantle to PSA in its Beckett slab it will not get into a PSA 5 or higher slab with that back.

    here's what a bad back looks like: image

    Here's a 7(OC)! wouldn't trade my former 4 for this 7!!

    Your front looks much better, but both appear to have the same reverse.

    Not sure if PSA would ever give a card a qualifier because of a back anyway.

    Unless of course it was truly miscut.

    Good for you.

    << <i>.........Not sure if PSA would ever give a card a qualifier because of a back......... >>



    I have seen a 1973 Schmidt that had a 50/50 front but was graded PSA 9 MC because of the reverse centering.

    Hence my further statement:


    Unless of course it was truly miscut.

    It should have to be truly miscut to get a lower grade or a qual, (see scans) that's what puzzles me about the PSA grade on the OP's card.
    The only thing I can think is that they gave it a lower grade because they thought the back was too far OC or MC. If this is the case, I think they should have given it a Qual.

    PSA has been killing my 77 OPC for their backs.
