Regarding the Thebo, I've noticed that PSA will downgrade a T206 to a PSA 2 if there is any evidence of glue residue from scrapbook removal. You can feel the residue with your fingers but often can't see it in a scan. I've seen a few where I was able to soak off the residue and send it back in for a higher grade. If you can't see any wrinkles and can't feel any residue or indentations after you crack it out of the case, then submit it again to PSA for better results. I had one PSA 2 that turned into a PSA 6.
Thanks! Appreciate the input. That’s great advice regarding the glue. I have another McIntyre that looks flawless but got a 1.5 because of major glue on the back. Been trying to get up the courage to crack and soak it (I’ve never done it before), but hopeful it’ll get me a way better grade.
