James,

Sharp looking Brooksie!

Picked up another tough one that will be off to PSA soon.

Is that a pin hole? (Top right corner looking at it)

Nice card either way, but if that is a pin hole, I believe the best you'll get is a 1?

[Sinker Slider]

That is a good question, which I cannot answer because I didn't see it until after dropping my mail at the post office this morning. But yes, if it's a pin hole, a 1 will be coming my way.

I am hopeful that it is something on the scanner, because I did take a pretty good look at that corner at various angles. I have made worse mistakes, though.

ETA: It shows on the seller's scan too, so it may very well be a pin hole. Ugh.

Hopefully, and it if is a card you wanted badly, I wouldn't let it bother you as it is hardly noticeable, imo.

Good luck.

Was it mentioned by the seller? If not, you may have a case for the card not being as described if you want to go that route?

[Sinker Slider]

No it wasn't mentioned. But it's a nice enough card that I'll probably just bust it out of its case, eat the grading fee, and include it in my ungraded collection if it turns out to be a pin hole, as now seems likely (see edit).

ETA: I looked at a bunch of others online and it is almost certainly a recurring print defect. They pretty much all have a spot there.

I was trying to save him some money thinking he didn't see it and to reconsider his submission.

Glad to hear, for, Slider, it is just a PD.

Gorgeous Morgan RC. Tough to find centered. Considering how nasty his numbers are, he's kind of slept-on.

I know it's a PD but why would anyone put a pin in the right corner of a card? It would just kind of dangle instead on being straight for display. I've had pinholes in cards but usually in the center somewhere.

I wondered the same thing but noticed what looked like a hint of another pinhole on the left side too.

I have seen pics of pinholes in all sorts of places but thought maybe the previous owner liked to hang his cards at a 45 degree angle?
