SGC Grading Question
 

Quick question - How harsh is SGC in regards to print lines on cards?

I have a PSA 5 T202 with a print line on the front of the card, what are the odds it will cross to a SGC 60?

Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony

it depends
 

I would think a barely noticable print line might be able to get a 60 if the card is solid otherwise. I think it might depend on the severity with respect to the aesthetics too. I haven't read their grade definitions lately but I would imagine this is the case. regards

I doubt that a print line would hold the card out of a 60 assuming the card has other strong attributes. Print lines, unless excessive, normally will not lower a grade by much, if at all, at the EX level. Besides SGC 60s can have popped corners, corner pinches, corner pulls, etc so a print line should be fine.
