Probably for the same reason 11 is called eleven instead of onety one.
Nice example of Edd Last edited by ALR-bishop; 10-02-2012 at 05:44 AM.

I'm really, really proud of this one, for my '52 set. Paid a fair bit over SMR for it, but totally worth it. I don't know WHAT PSA was thinking...perfect, original colors, sharp corners, dead centered, no gum stains, and not a hint of creasing. The picture doesn't show it, but the gloss is outstanding. It utterly mystifies me they graded it a 6...I've got 7.5s that aren't this good. I'll probably crack and resubmit, once I have a few more worth sending in. I think it'll get at least a 7. Just goes to show, buy the card, not the plastic!
