And I'd bet the proverbial farm that his 4 will appreciate at a greater rate than the usual looking 4.

Hi Matt, I don't know if I fully agree with this at least for cards in grade 4. (Great card, btw, Leon!) Leon's 4 will probably appreciate at a greater rate than a typical 4, but I doubt that it would generally surpass the grade of a typical 5. So there will still be band that it will be locked into. Cards graded Authentic or Poor, are very different, on the other hand, like your M101-5 Ruth. There can be a huge difference in eye appeal among these cards, as cards can have NM visual appeal, but just have a pinhole or slight back damage that drops the cards technical grade to Authentic or Poor. These cards can appreciate far faster than cards graded multiple levels above it.
