SGC and Back Damage?

[bcbgcbrcb]

Will grade either 10 or 20 at the most would be my guess without seeing a scan of the card.

I agree with Phil, 20 max, probably a 10.

Thanks guys. That is what I thought. Real shame because this is a key to the set. The front is very nice but I know they reduce the grade significantly for BD.

I've seen some SGC-30 (2)'s with modest back damage recently -- before this, I would have agreed 100% with the commentary above. This one is on eBAY now.

Agree with others here... if the back has extremely minor paper loss, it has an outside chance at a 30. Otherwise 10 or 20 depending on severity.

My latest submission came back with a blank backed card which looked like a 60 from the front but minor back damage and it received a 10 so I am guessing a 10 for your card. At least SGC is consistent and you know going in that your card will get thrashed for minor back damage, no surprises.

Depends on the size and placement. Also I think they take in the reason for the damage and how the rest of the card looks.

Grades can be anywhere between a 10-40.

That being said an SGC 10 with damage like that will sell for a huge price premium over what a "normal" 10 will.

I would call the Hornsby the 3rd key with the Ruth and Jackson being bigger even though it is the Hornsby RC :-D

Maybe I will scan the back and post it here. You guys can take a look and grade it yourselves. Then you can mail me a net54baseball numerical certification. Sound good?

I guess it all depends on the severity. Here is a 1.5 I just sold...


Front looked fabulous! They really hammer the back.
