Very common from what I know --- many cards go through various holders before coming to rest in their optimum one, including rejections along the way. I've seen journeys like 4-A-6-A-5-7. Sometimes I think it can be genuinely hard to tell. There are highly skilled card doctors out there. Other times, maybe the grader wasn't so expert.
