I once owned a Beckett holder numbered 00000021 and let it slip away, how foolish! |
Do you remember what card was inside that holder?
I have 0005 and 007 serial #ed Beckett cards from their testing before they graded any cards for the public. I also have a very early SGC slab and some day plan on buying one of the PSA test slabs for my oddball collection.
As far as card population I doubt the # graded by the big 3 could be used in any way to determine how many are out there. Way to many crack and resubs, people that just crack them because they do not collect slabs, and the people that just do not get anything graded.
