Al (LOTG) is top notch, honest with great integrity. Period.

The problem, though, is that this "obvious" erasure was not mentioned in Al's original description, much less as accounting for the grade. I am sure it was just an oversight but I think it led to there being an issue.
"Well-centered from left to right, ever so slightly low on the canvas, the card exhibits wear consistent with the VG 3 grade, mostly at the corners. The reverse is clean, with very slight surface dirt almost too light to mention."
