I just got these back indirectly from SGC...a friend sent them in with his submission for me. I'm a bit disappointed with the way these 3 graded. Guesses?

Don’t know the grades but on the type 3 fact 8 overprint, who cares the grade; whoever it is, there can’t be many of them. Would love to see the front

I know...I've never seen another...and after just looking at it under a loupe there are a bunch of creases...the WAJO perplexes me the most.
I DO like the new SGC holders!

What is the difference between the new and old holders?

I guess I could see the other two, but that Wajo is sharp. Looks like they hit the stains pretty hard, because the cardboard looks like it could be a 5 on a good day (keeping in mind we are judging off a scan). I would have guessed a 4. Despite the two creases, I had the Donlin pegged at a 2. Nice cards anyway.

Those seem right to me? I've been submitting pre war to SGC monthy for a few years, there's a noticeable difference in expectations when you are just buying SGC cards from a variety of their grading years/history as opposed to regularly having cards graded. It gives you a better idea of what to expect. I'll bet there is some very small surface loss on the back of Wajo from coming out of a scrapbook.

I see your point...and I think you're right. I hardly ever submit cards to TPG'ers...so I have little experience...additionally I believe you are right about the WAJO...there appears to be surface loss on the back.
Based on the majority of responses though...it seems most on here don't have much of a clue about how TPG'ers grade...myself included.
I think Wags should have received a # as it's just worn...and had WAJO received any higher...I'd have been happy!!!!!:D
I thought that you would be lucky to get a 2 on Donlin, with those creases. But Ryan is right, all that matters is that Factory 8 overprint. Great card.

There are three experiences when submitting a card to a TPG:
1. The grade you hope to receive
2. The grade you received
3. The grade you wished you had received.
1 and 3 aren't always the same.

The front is the Donlin.
When I started this thread I was having technological issues and only the back scan first was posted.
Well...good guesses everyone...like throwing darts at a dartboard blindfolded!!!!!
Chalupa was closest...the grades are as follows:
donlin 1.5
wajo 3
wags A
That is what I was going to say. :cool:
