Default PSA 10 Gem Mint I don't understand
Posted By: MW

David,

I was just teasing about my first comment -- the one about being too hasty.

In general, I think some grading companies have adopted "better than Gem Mint" and "Pristine" grades because a PSA 10 isn't really, well, "Gem Mint." And as long as (modern) cards are flawed, there will always be a higher technical grade. Figuratively speaking, I think PSA set its own "bar" a bit too low.
