That 1952 Topps Mantle doesn't look right. Somebody pried open the case and slipped a different card in. That would never receive a numerical grade.

these w/ the memorabilia in their White Ford auction. Guess the grades would be insignificant, since the majority of value is that Whitey owned these cards.

Jay...I figured so much...but...it still doesn't make sense to me...personally I'd rather have a # grade on any card I own as compared to an A...which to me implies the card is altered in some way.
To me...SGC/PSA are getting worse...they are unacceptably inconsistent...and make mistakes way too often. Last edited by ullmandds; 05-13-2010 at 11:26 AM.

Wow that 1910 Orange Borders example shows some brutal inconsistency.
Edited to add: I wonder if you showed them both cards, which one they would have to change? I guess you would run the risk of having the Chase knocked down to an "A".

Honestly, what's the difference between a 10 and an A on a handcut card? There are certain issues of which the grades make no difference to me when I buy the card. Beyond the Orange Borders, the W555 usually makes no difference to me gradewise:
  Same goes with S-74s for the most part as the grades are handed out with no rhyme or reason:

I don't collect many hand-cut examples, however I think that kind of inconsistency is pretty gross. I would totally be discouraged if I had 2 cards that more or less look the same with 2 totally different grades.
