That seems unlikely. Two 8s sold recently in the 150-160 range and historically there is a big jump from 7 to 8. About 3x. That would put a 7 in the 50-60 range. Unless you're aware of some private sales I haven't heard about.

And even if you're right, that's for PSA, not SGC. In November last year an SGC 6 Mantle went for 7.7k. A PSA 6 Mantle closed a few days ago for 24k, I believe in a PWCC auction. 45k for an SGC seems like a stretch, even with the nice centering. That would be a 500% increase in 6 months.
