What is alleged to have been done to this card?

I can't tell that anything has been done other than a bump in grade. The thick mylar sleeve that BVG uses causes scans to look different.

A 2 grade bump, especially FROM a Beckett holder to a PSA, seems highly unlikely to me without some improvement, but I'm not sure. The descriptions by PWCC sure are night and day which in and of itself is interesting.

The shadows from the photo corners have been removed, and probably the indents they caused as well.

If Moser has recolored cards I wonder why the white dot next to the L is gone but one is above the A.

The right edge looks rougher in the PSA holder. The chipping on the upper left on the reverse looks worse.

All hazards of working with scans that aren't al that high res.

I think the white dots in that area of the front are debris inside the slab or on the scanner. That they weren't called out on the blowout post makes me think they see it that way too rather than as recoloring.

I sort of whish it was in a PSA slab before. I looks like the red got brightened a lot, but that could be the scanner. A comparable before would help tell, but we don't have that.

Both the chipping and roughness could be made worse by the soaking that removed the shadows from the album and corners. I had a good long look at them and sort of see what you're saying, but also see areas of the edges that are a tiny bit smoother.
Again, that could just be the scans, but there has been some cleaning.

I thought soaking was deemed okay.

So has anything really wrong been done?

Soaking in a chemical bath is not OK according to many or most.

There is a print dot or something on the BVG that is not there later. Almost like a pen mark.
