Can we please see exactly what SGC wrote to be so insulting? I am not a huge fan of grading but SGC is by far the best and I personally know most of those guys and I would be very shocked if they were unproffessional.
At this point in this incident, I am standing behind SGC. They are good guys who will listen to reason and will listen to information from people. |

The back of this T206 has been noted and has been debated here considerably. However, I don't think the front of
this card has been noted. It's my understanding that pictured on the front of this card is Dolly Stark. Please correct me if I am wrong ? Assuming it is Dolly Stark (San Antonio), then this card could NEVER be a Brown OLD MILL. As, none of the 6 Texas Leaguers exist with the Brown OLD MILL backs. Furthermore, if I recall correctly, there has never been a factory-cut Brown OLD MILL. What I don't understand regarding this situation is......with all the T206 expertise on this forum, why didn't you or your Dad get a 2nd opinion from one of us ? Most of us are very willing to offer our opinions on these cards. Regards to you and your Dad. TED Z |

I sure wish that we'd get back to threads about breaking out cards that have received decent 3pg grades and bitching about the new grade received and/or complaining about how big a screwing people took when an auction house made a mistake and fixed it by 100% meeting the unreasonable demands of the purchaser. The current thread doesn't meet either of the above criteria and I'm concerned that the board may be diverted into spending too much time looking at silly issues such as this should this thread continue. Sincerely,

If it was purchased slabbed, shouldn't Hank and Scott be reimbursed the approximate difference between a brown and black old mill (thousands of dollars) as well as grading fees? This isn't a Heinie/Honus Wagner error, this is a distinct back type error made by SGC that has to impact someone. I'm sure Hank paid well more than black old mill prices if it was slabbed....

I'd like to see a lineup of at least 5 of Scott's Old Mill black backs, and the Stark card back for comparison.
It can't be a Brown Back as we are defining the hand-cut ones. However, I've seen some faded black backs that look like a dark brown on Old Mills. Let's give Scott a chance to show the 'lineup'. No bets - just some good scans all done with the same scanner. I believe Scott & his Dad when they say the card looks 'browner' than the usual Old Mills. And we know SGC and Goodwin are not dummies when it comes to T206. Ron |

Ron - There in lies the big problem I have with this whole situation. Given what we know about Brown Old Mills this card can't be one. It may be a different shade of black that looks more brown than other black examples but to call it a Brown Back is extremely misleading. You can line up all the black Old Mills you would like but even if there is a variance and this one looks like it may be a shade closer to brown than black this card is not a Brown Old Mill.
