I agree. The card in the original post looks like a 2 to me. Except for the registry guys the mantra is always the same, buy the card, not the holder. Don't buy graded cards blindly unless you are only buying a number to get ahead in a game. IF you are playing the number game, then who cares, buy the highest grade you can and win, win, win!!
