Silks

I don't think PSA will even grade silks. SGC and Beckett will grade but the grades seem inconsistent. Silks with creases or wrinkles might get an EX-MT grade. Also there is usually fraying at the top or bottom. To me it seems like part of the item is missing when there is fraying. Yet, the silk might get an EX or better. Sometimes a silk will get an Auth or a 2-3 grade and it looks pretty nice in the holder.

The silks with the backing almost always have the horizontal crease. I'd say 90% of the time.

Some of the color silks without the fraying or wrinkling are really beautiful.
