Default If this Jackie is a 4, is mine a 5?

Just wondering and trying to figure out if I should get mine graded?

It could get a five, but grading is so subjective that it's really hard to guess. I would get it graded just to protect it from handling and it would make it easier to sell or trade if you ever want to go that route.

That Robinson was graded a while ago; no PSA hologram. Since the changes to the slab/flip, PSA has, in my opinion, started grading vintage more strictly. What was a 5 before now is likely a 4.

Your card is nice, and I would get it graded, regardless (your Mantle and Mays, too, if you haven't already). Slab the cards to get them protected, and for insurance purposes.

There was a really nice 3 that sold on ebay a few days ago thats better than that 4 in the link you provided and the 3 sold for around 1500.

I would just send it in, but i think its probaby going to be a 3/4.

Yours looks like a 4 to me, but you never know. It is nicer than the ebay one in your link. But as others said grading is subjective and standards appear tougher now. I wouldn't be surprised by anything in the 3-5 range. Still worth submitting in that range. I would send it in with the Mays and Mantle soon if they were my cards.

The 1952 Topps Robinson is an iconic, visually appealing card. I would say your card would grade anywhere from a PSA 3-4, maybe 4.5, and it would be money well spent.

You could list it here and it would be gone inside of a few hours.

Nice card - get it slabbed!

Very nice card Dale. I'd send off to PSA and hold it for at lest a couple years. You will never go wrong with this card.
