T205 - Guess the SGC Grades?
 

Not long ago (very recently :)) I took a small chance on some raw T205s on ebay. Buying raw is always at least a tiny risk it seems.
They looked nice so I said what the heck, it wasn't life changing money either way. They arrived back from SGC today. There aren't any hidden surprises that I can see....So what do you think they got?

1. Bescher
2. Bransfield
3. Devore
4. Fromme

These look great!
I hope they are at least 6 but the TPG winds blow different every time.
They could be higher, but the corner points will likely make them lower.

Tough guessing!

Either way these are beautiful cards.;)

4,1.5,3,A. The Fromme looks a little narrow. Just noticed the hole on Bransfield.

4-1-4-4

3's with the last one being a 2. I don't see a hole myself, at least one that doesn't look like it came all the way through?

I don't see a hole, but I see paper loss on the back in the lower right.

3, 1.5, 3, 2.5

If I had to guess I would bet they had been graded and cracked because of their high-end appearance. I love them.

Nice lookers

Nice looking cards!

I'll go with...

3, 2, 4, A

4, 2, 2, 2.

My gut feeling ... Authentic, Authentic, Rejected, Authentic ... if autographs were to materialize mysteriously, which I understand can happen.

3 3 4 4 .. what do I win? :p

All 7s, but the signatures on the cards were deemed forged.

I edited my post earlier and was going to change my choices to your's but then decided to just stick with what I originally chose. I still think your's are going to be the correct ones. Just a hunch. :)

5, 4, 5. 4

Guys guessing A-3s, why would Leon even send them in for grading if they're that low? I'm guessing there are two 4.5s and two 5.5s.

4.5, 2, 4.5, 4

We will let these be guessed at for a little bit more today then I will reveal in several hours. One reason I sent them in is that I wanted to keep my consecutive years of submitting to SGC going. This year is 19 or 20 yrs in a row, I believe.

3.5, 2.5, 5, 4

4.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5

I will go with 4's across the board. Nice cards Leon!

Hey Leon, I hope you realize those “autographs” are pre-prints...otherwise nice cards!!!

Here ya go.....I was happy none had issues I couldn't see when buying..

awesome, glad I was wrong, to paraphrase Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were" I always expect a trick answer in these threads!" I do think there's paper loss on the lower right border on the back of one card though :)

Congratulations on the grades!!!!!!!

Great cards. I was thinking 6,5,6,6.

Not 6's with as much white and rounding on the corners. I was happy with the grades and thought they were accurate. Aren't we always happy when they come back the way we expected? It seems a bit rare from what I experience and read.....
