I'm not asking you to create your own grading standards; just go with what has already been established for the reputable grading companies over the long term, compare your graded card to those standards, and subtract the difference between what your card received and what the standards say it should have received in points.

I'll start with a card that should be hard to beat in terms of undergrading. As you can see, this '34 Goudey Hank Greenberg rookie card only got a 1.5. However, with no creasing, wrinkles, erasures, or paper loss, according to the PSA standards, I think it should have gotten a 5.5. So in my opinion my "under" points on this card would be a whopping 4 points. Now let's see your most undergraded card, and please stick to vintage.
Is there a wrinkle across his face and nose?
