bbcemporium,

Thank you for posting the comparisons. It seems obvious to me that the small security tabs or "nubs" are popped/cloudy on the holders that have been cracked and clear on the holders that are legitimately sealed by PSA. I hope others can see this.

Yes, you can see this clearly on the nubs directly under the flip.

Just wanted to add, as someone above mentioned, that one or two patches of frosting and even stress cracks at slab corners and by the circular posts of a slab are all pretty common right off the press at PSA. But those circular posts should be clear, not cloudy, as noted above. I've been handed re-holdered cards in their customer lobby that exhibit frosting, stress cracks, and even a rough nub on the side that could be misconstrued as an area where someone tried to force open the holder (this latter attribute is not the case with the new holder). Just things for people to keep in mind so as not to wind up passing on a good card; their cust service people said it's when frosting runs the length of one side that it's a no-no, as opposed to a random inch-long area in one isolated place.

Look at the top of the holder. I wonder if the Schmidt isn't a legitimate 8 with a different (PSA 10) flip slid in along the top edge.
