Yes, but pay a sensible price for it, not an off the charts world record.

T206 Young portrait is a high demand card, this example was particularly nice, the price was way over the top, and the T206 market continues to be overheated.

A confluence of all those factors at the same time.

Maybe it's just me, but I just can't get past those corners to a 5. Maybe 4.5, a 4 but 5, nope.

Wow, you're a tough grader. I would put those corners at a solid 5. The lower right is the only one that has me thinking. I've seen a lot worse and few better for the grade (assuming no other significant detractors).

I suppose I should send all the ones that got 4s from SGC to PSA. I might do really well.
