Chances of this card being graded VG-EX

Is the cross-hatch pattern on the scan or the card. This is the only one I've owned and COMC says it's real. It seems to have a dotted printing pattern.

That looks like a half tone dot pattern just blown up from a lo-res scan

John, the scan caused the cross hatch

Thanks.

Different scan and a bad scan of the back

Please let us know if it comes back with a numerical grade. Good luck!

As was said, grading is so subjective it could be a 2 or a 4. I would have to guess a 3 to 3.5. Depending on your desires it is a card that should be slabbed due to value, imo. Nice card btw....

I would be happy with the card graded between the range of a 3 to 4. The card looks better in person than the scan shows. Have not mastered scanning yet.

On vintage it seems generally bvg has little to no condition waiver due to age, sgc gives the most and Psa seems to give some.

If it gets a numerical I would just guess -
Bvg - 2
Psa - 3
Sgc - 4

Nonetheless, I would say on a less well known card to the masses like this, the resale would be a third of the graded value and would be necessary to get a return if you want to move it in the future. Most less knowledgable collectors would need the grade to feel good about a purchase on something like this.
