Was it ever in a non-recessed screwdown? If so, maybe SGC is your better choice since PSA normally will only grade cards they think may have been in screwdowns as AUTHENTIC ALTERED (in this case, for pressed to possibly remove creases).

PSA are hacks, but so are the other grading companies out there, but all the sheep buying slabs want PSA first, everyone else fifth.

Good luck!

Sound advice.

As far as predicting the market - your guess is as good as any.

Posting pics - there is a "manage attachments" option when you post that you can add pics with. You may need to resize them to meet the size limit.

I remember after I bought it I put
it in a plastic screw down holder. Haven�t really touched it since. I just uploaded a photo of it somewhere on this site in the holder.

Help. My only device is my iPhone as of now. Thanks for replies

Figured it out.

As far as posting pics, you can also use a 3rd party hosting site such as imgur, postimage, imgbb, et cetera. You can post the direct link in the little yellow icon with the mountain and sun in the forum text toolbar. Or you can write out the html code: [img] your link [/img]. Or at the very least, you can just post the link and people can click on it to see it on the website. The attachment feature on this forum works all right, but you usually have to resize your image, and then it's somewhat small and pixellated. With 3rd party photo hosting sites, the image can be seen in higher definition.

This works on most forums by the way. I find that forums aren't used as much nowadays since social media sites have become so popular, and are generally much more streamlined in regards to posting pics and videos. So, many people don't know how forums work nowadays with posting media links. Hope this helped, and good luck with the Mantle.
