The customer instead will buy them due to the backs fitting together and they will want to put the backs together raw to see how well they match, etc. I don't think the grade will matter to them as much.
just my preference and 0.02, good luck w/your decision!

That is what I was thinking Rob, if I did sell the cards, they might be worth more as a group, but also it might be better to keep them as a group. I meant to mention this above, I have seen only three others like this and there might be one more. Someone told me they knew of another back when I only knew of two, but didn't know who the player was, so the third one I know now might be that one. Anyway, it just means this is something that may never be replicated, so it is best to keep them together.
