Default Board opinion on grade of this card

Posted By: Jeff Cornett

As for the person saying that it would be a 6 if it were centered he obviously has no clue about PSA grading standards They are using the logic of the
"two grade drop" for the MC qualifier
that PSA uses on the Set Registry
and assuming that if it were not miscut
that it would grade 2 levels higher,
but they have it backwards.
The removing the qualifier moves the grade
BACK DOWN to the actual grade
that would take into account the qualified issue.
(ex: PSA 9oc means that it is a MINT card in all respects
EXCEPT that it is Off-Center - so without the qualifier it would
be a PSA 7, but would never go UP in grade without it....
and if this 9oc Was not off-center then it would be a 9 that is all
that is what the 9oc means.)
