1964 Topps Mickey Mantle PSA 5 (OF) - Out of focus. Anyone else have other (OF cards?

I just scored this on eBay, don't have it in hand yet. I really like how it presents and how unique it seems to be. I've been unable to find any other examples of (OF) cards - the word 'of' existing makes it bit tough.

A few question for everyone:
  • Does anyone have any other Out of Focus cards to share?
  • What do you think it would grade without qualifiers, from PSA or SGC?
  • Any thoughts on its value? I'm familiar with the rule of dropping a card's value a grade or two if it has a qualifier, though personally think this defect could actually be desirable.

Thanks all!

Super rare but considerably out of focus.

Doesn't make it more valuable. Highly restricts the people who would be interested in purchasing it.
I actually think PSA should give out the OF qualifier much more often. Nothing worse than a high grade card with bad registration issues.

Bought this card 40 years ago. Sorry about the less than ideal scan.
