Nice card. Yeah, the grading companies seem pretty inconsistent on their "back policies" from what I've seen. It's a shame to give a card with good front centering and that good of a presentation an MC designation just based on the back...but nice that you probably got a deal because of it.
I've also seen the opposite. I have a '66 Koufax that has decent centering on the front, technically is miscut on the back because of the borders, and is probably a NM card otherwise. PSA graded it a straight 6, even though that's wrong by their own standards for the back.
