I thought it would grade higher, but I'm still happy with it!

Hey, thanks, Joe! Here's the back, just as clean as the front. I'm really thinking about keeping this one in my collection, but if the price is right, well you know!

I believe your card is a good example of "grade creep" that is, the scale is sliding on vintage products. Possibly a result of all the sharp edged chrome cards of today (hyper modern) making flaws on older cards stand out more in comparison and thus the cards produced in the days of low tech are getting penalized more by all the new graders.

Looks to me like an easy 4 or 4.5 10 years ago.
