Guess the Grades!

[bobbvc]

I was looking for some cards to post in the "just show some cards" thread, and came up with these. Thought I'd do an unofficial contest instead. I recently sent these in to SGC. (couple months ago). 1st poster to correctly guess all 6 final SGC grades gets a free copy of the book "How to Make Pro Scouts Notice You" by Al Goldis and John Wolff. It's a cool book. Postage on me. FYI, all backs are very clean. Let the guessing begin....
oh yeah, only one guess per board member...

[cliftons8]

All Authentic but trimmed.

I have an extra copy of the book and want to give it away, so here is a hint. One of these 6 cards came back as trimmed. The other 5 have numerical grades.

[Ease]

Jones 40, Lake 40, Pelty 40, Abstein 50, Criss A, Dineen 60
Thanx for the contest!

I'll play:
Jones - 40
Lake - 50
Pelty - 40
Abstein - 60
Criss - Trimmed
Dineen - 60
If the backs have no paper loss of course....

[bobbvc]

Very clean backs- no paper loss...

[Fred]

Lake = Tr
Jones = 50
Pelty = 40
Dineen = 50
Criss = 30
Abstein = 60

[Robextend]

Jones: 40
Lake: 40
Pelty: 30
Abstein: Trim
Criss: 30
Dineen: 40

[Vol]

Jones--40
Lake--30
Pelty-A
Abstein-60
Criss--30
Dineen--50

Feel like I am off on two of them. Tough challenge!

Yeah, don't know if it is Bobby's scanner that is the problem, but the only card of that whole lot that does not look trimmed to me is Pelty. Every other card looks trimmed on the top border. If that scan was for raw cards for sale, I would not touch any of them.

Cheers,

That was my original thought as well...this better not be a trick!!

I agree with Blair.
Jones - Trimmed but with large top border probably got a 60.
Lake - Trimmed (see Abstein)
Pelty - 30
Abstein - Trimmed. If this card didn't come back from SGC as authentic, I have a lot of cards like it with "bat earred" corners like this one residing in SGC AUT holders which I guess I need to resubmit
Criss - Trimmed (see Abstein)
Dineen - Trimmed (see Abstein)

[Mikehealer]

50,50,40,70,a,60

[cfc1909]

not sure what the grades are but this is what they should have been
Pelty-SGC 40 maybe 30
rest -authentic-trimmed

[AndrewJerome]

Pelty 40
Jones 50
Lake 50
Abstein 60
Criss A
Dineen 60

I dunno, but here goes:

50, tr, 30, 50, 40, 40

[bobbvc]

There are no tricks and the scans are very accurate. Going to help out a little here. Criss came back trimmed and Dineen got a 60. Contest re-opened to all if you want to make a second guess. Thanks for playing. Reminds me of the pick-six at Del Mar.

[Robextend]

Jones: 40
Lake: 40
Pelty: 30
Abstein: 70
Criss: Trim
Dineen: 60

[nebboy]

Jones - 60
Lake - 60
Pelty - 40
Abstein - 60
Criss - A-trimmed
Dineen - 60

2nd guess - thanks for the hints!

[quinnsryche]

50/40/40/60/tr/60

[Wahoowa]

Second try:

Jones - 30
Lake - 50
Pelty - 40
Abstein - 70
Criss - Trim
Dineen - 60

[JasonL]

That is the first time I have ever seen the Abstein card. Wow. That is a disturbing image for some reason. Off center to the left, and where is he looking? Freaky unsettling for some reason!

[jrog007]

Jones-50
Lake-50
Pelty-40
Abstein-70
Criss-A
Dineen-60

[perezfan]

50

Editing to say I think I see a faint crease on Abstein, making it a 50
