We have varied opinions because we are just looking at pictures. A few seconds in hand and many of us could give a 100% positive good or bad.

If you handed these pictures only to every grader at PSA you would likely get the same varied opinions, or no opinion at all without card in hand.

But given what the OP paid for the card, if it is real and he ever intends to sell it, he should get it graded, no question
