PSA and the Hologram?

The Klippstein is a 1 POOR because of the staple holes in it. Any hole in a card (not originally manufactured that way) gets a 1. It's in their definition of Poor.

Thanks, Swarmee. Those were hard to see even after you pointed them out.
I read the vague description and since there was no mention of them it never even crossed my mind to look for them.

Wondering if the current crop of bidders see them?

They probably see them, but think that the eye appeal of that card beats some others. The staple holes do blend into the black border line, I first noticed it by looking at the back and seeing the paper loss on the left side.

You have a sharp eye, Swarmee! I looked that card over, what I thought was thoroughly before I posted it, looking for a sign as to why it was a 1 but I just couldn't see it.

I was amazed/stunned it received a 1 and that card I posted earlier was a 4. lol.
