Default UPDATE: T206 Murr'y Variation grades an SGC 40

Posted By: Kevin Saucier

Sorry Dan...I made the one above too!

The one you are thinking of is on the T206 Museum site. Mine (the one shown) is with the Global display.


"the only way to see it is to hold the card about a foot away and slightly tilt it under a normal light bulb only"


That's the way to inspect a card (except with a halogen light) and is the standard for all 3rd party graders, which is why I'm saying it should have been a no-brainer for any grader. Dull spots or areas also show up for such things as recolored, reglossed or in some cases removed stains, to name a few.

I really don't understand how these were missed consistantly or by the Mastro in-house expert(s).
