Interesting questions that you pose here. Generally speaking, values for the same grade would favor PSA > SGC >> BVG. Having said that, there's variation in how a given grade for one TPG would cross-over to another TPG. I've seen enough variation within a given TPG that it'd be a little hard to say how a given card would score when crossed over. And other posters have commented on prior threads that crossing over sometimes gets graded a little more harshly than the same card might if submitted raw, as if the second TPG wishes to prove a point that they grade to a harsher standard. I submitted several T206s to PSA that were BVG 4.5, and a few crossed over at 4s while the others wouldn't cross over at my minimum grade (usually one lower or the same as the BVG grade).

With this particular card, the name is cut off at the bottom and there does seem to be part of another card's name at the top. So, if submitted to PSA, it would get a MK qualifier. As for SGC, they don't specifically qualify cards or penalize for the miscut, but by the same token I would find it hard for the card to grade too high with that degree of off-centering top-bottom. I'd say 60 is overly optimisted, 50 most likely, but even 40 possibly. Plus, there's no view of the card's back.

If you do submit it for cross-over, please share the outcome. I'd be most curious to find out how SGC treated it.

p.s. nice pickup for the price, well done...
