There are many SGC 20's but this is my SGC 20. It is gorgeous and I don't miss the 1% of the back that is gone. In fact I cherish the missing pieces because they made it possible for this card to become mine:

In my opinion certain cards registration and image clarity are key. The green Cobby is most definitely one of them. I actually look for a bold striking image placing that even over 50/50 centering.

I settled for this one. Great cards everyone!!

Any reason why so many Green Cobbs are off center...towards the bottom?

My father bought this Cobb at a card show in the mid 80's for $20! It cost me $35 to get it graded last year...

I remembered a thread about this a while back from Ted.

Default Raw Green Cobb
Took a gamble and bought this "well loved" Cobb for a great price without seeing pictures of the back. Happy to learn that it had a very clean SC back when I received the card. Now resides in my raw T206 set binder.
