Default Card Grades & Their Appearences

Posted By: Josh K.

I tend to buy most prewar cards in the 3-5 range. I generally look for a pleasing image, good centering, preferably no creases (or very small ones), and decent corners (though they will be somewhat rounded in a 3/4). Ive posted some recent t206's that Ive purchased (the Young was just won yesterday so the scan is from the listing). With newer cards (ie 50's and 60's) I look for 5-7 range and I will trade off centering for better corners - as in the Aaron. You can find some very good looking cards in this range. :
