question on erasing pencil marks

Posted By: Michael Steele

I have an E-90-1 from the last rare series into SGC right now that has the letter c in pencil on the back of the card. I debated long and hard about erasing the mark but in the end left it on for fear of damaging the back and I really do not like to do anything to a card. The mark is very light but it looks like it has been on there for a long time.

Without the mark, the card should grade a 50 (IMO). I should have the card back in a week or so as I submitted at the National with the 10 day return. In talking to SGC it should only get dinged down 1 grade to a 40 if it makes the 50 grade w/o the pencil mark. We will see. This could be a good case study.
