Posted By: <b>Keith O'Leary</b><p> There was a question the other day about whether or not a card was really EX, is this one really good? Derek is super tough on these, huh? Just has the usual cracking with no creases. <BR><BR><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1031929025.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Mike Williams</b><p>I submitted a T200 Cleveland Am. to SGC back in the Merkle days. It had no creases but it did have some light enamel cracking. It came back a 60....which kinda surprised me. I also had an SGC 80 Pittsburgh with corner creasing (post Merkle). Quite honestly, I never really pay much attention to the assigned grades on Fatimas.

Posted By: <b>Bill Cornell</b><p>Keith-<BR><BR>It's a lost cause with graded T222's, I think - I have 2 SGC's similar to yours, one a 30 and the other a 40. They don't differentiate between cracks and creases, which would be okay, except that T207's have similar problems and the cracking is generally ignored. Also, T200's seem to get easier treatment.<BR><BR>Amazingly, there's one SGC 88: it's 3 grades better than any other in their population report (PSA still hasn't graded a single T222). I can't imagine how that card could have survived in that condition.<BR><BR>Bill
