It was experimental. The card is really nice and sharp. The front looks like it could be a 6 or 7, but the back is miscut. For that reason I probably would have been better off keeping it in the slab, but all of my RCs post 1965 are ungraded and so it keeps up with the spirit of that personal collecting rule.
Do you like them better in slabs? If so, leave them in. I don’t, so I crack them. There’s no right or wrong, just don't collect scared.
