Default Speaking of T206's - Cobby green from Marshall

Posted By: jay behrens

Frank, contrary to your sarcastic remarks, and I even said so in my post, it is a nice looking card. This card is the perfect example for buy the card and not the holder, as there is no way this a legit 8. I can get sloppy on the grading of the cards I own, but when I can't see one sharp corner with just a cursory glance, I cannot jsutify calling a card NM, let alone NM/Mt. The grade on this card is a total joke. The flip may be impressive, but when you combine the card with the flip, the effect is underwhelming at best. Maybe I should submit this card and see if I can get an 8. At least it has 2 sharp corners. Then again, we all know that unless you submitted thru "prefered" sources, you aren't likely to get your cards overgraded (no aspersions meant toward Marshall since from what I know, he buys everything already slabbed).
