Default One of the Nicer SGC 3s I've Seen
Ebay purchase - technical grade is correct. Tickled to own it

Post your “Nice for the Grade” card.

little wrinkles on the upper left edge about ear high, I'm assuming. Gorgeous card!

I see the wrinkles that go across the card. Great eye appeal but as was posted, it does give off a vibe of being trimmed. Top edge especially but could just be the way it scanned.

Let me begin by saying I really like SGC. However, there are two things I find annoying - the absence of explanations behind the grade, and the inconsistencies. I recently submitted a really nice '64 Topps HOFer. SGC graded it a 4. I cracked it out and immediately resubmitted it to SGC and it came back a 7. That's just plain ridiculous.

+1....There is no way a card should jump 3 grades. SGC should have been apologizng instead of taking more money. Unless you are going for a registry set there isn't a ton of reason to buy high grade instead of high visual appeal.

The 3 originally posted looks like a 5-7 any day of the week.

I love threads like this, John.

52 Red Man Mays and 62 Mays have wrinkles. 71 Aaron has a dent on the bottom right edge. The rest just feel a grade or two underappreciated...
