It looks to me like the top left corner has been altered. The left edge slants in towards the center starting at about 1/4 inch from the corner. Or are my old eyes playing tricks on me?

I see the same thing Mike. I would assume PSA determined it was cut like that from the factory but it still fell within acceptable limits for the grade. They have been known give a high numerical grade to other high profile cards that have been altered, or at least one that I've heard of any way.

Card appears overgraded by two full grades.

I thought this card looked familiar. I just saw it pop up in one of the registry sets, so it must have sold off-line. Any thoughts on what it went for/what it is worth?

If I had to guess I would say between 100-120k is what this card is currently worth and would sell for. I wouldn't think you could find a 7 centered fairly well for under 100k anymore.

Thanks! I don't follow the market for anything that hasn't spent some time in bike spokes, but it's great to see the prices so strong.
