The same (somewhat circular) logic used to defend the Plank (SGC saw it up close so they must be right) should also apply to the Gretzky Wagner, but it seems a higher percentage of people think the Plank deserves its numerical grade than think the Wagner does. It's unfortunate no information about provvenance has been made available regarding the Plank.
I remain skeptical; it seems odd to me that after all this time the first ever factory-cut Piedmont Plank would suddenly emerge in a high grade holder; and (I understand the limitations of scans) the lower left corner looks unnatural.
