Hi Andy--
I agree w/ you--The corners & edges are very sharp and there are no stray print marks--the only thing I see is the OC, which is the basis of my comment about centering. I feel as though it should have graded just a tad higher.

Fred, I suggest you contact CSG and ask them how much the reduced the grade on your lovely Aaron card for the relatively-poor centering. And, if you kindly let us know CSG's answer, this will give all of us a good idea as to what to expect when we submit.

I hate to be "that guy" but if you look at the back scan there is a ding in the top border over the L in FALSE, possibly some damage on the bottom border under the home run total, tiny corner touches and pretty noticeable toning. While I think it's an awesome 6, I think the grade is right.

that is a sweet Aaron...
The way centering works for the technical grade, the card has to meet a specific requirement, (with some leeway I'd assume). A CSG 7 has to be 70/30 or better. A CSG 6 has to be 75/25 or better. I am guessing the tools came up with something like this.... I zoomed in /out on the screen a few times and measured... I got slightly better than ~80/20 every time. I think it is too far from 70/30 to get a 7... corners/edges/surface have way more subjectivity because the grader is applying his opinion to a description.

Being the Centering OCD kinda guy that I am - I had to take a measure on this one -
I have always personally used the JRuler Utility to measure borders in Pixels. On your Aaron - I come up with Left = 22 Pixels Right = 19 Pixels Centering L to R = 53.6/46.4 Top = 29 Pixels Bottom = 9 Pixels Centering T to B = 76.3/23.7 So if my measurements are correct then the T/B Centering would be just a tad bit under what their stated requirements are for a 6 Still a great card but I would really question them if it was in a 7 holder Quote:

After reading everyone's comments & re-examining my card w/ a magnifier, I am changing my opinion of the grade.
Quote:
Your above comments are "right on"--you sure have an "eagle eye" for grading! There IS a minute mark over the L in False and on the bottom, under the HR total is a wee indent--my magnifier sees it as a tiny "rubber band" indent! (I now remember noticing this when I was preparing the card for submission) Bottom Line is: I now think the Grade of 6 is very fair & accurate! Thank You ALL for the comments--they have all been well thought out & most of all, VERY correct!!

  These are on their way back from CSG. I think the grades were accurate and I am pleased with the way they look. As for flip size, I do not mind the 'older guy' big fonts. I am an older guy...
