The card is, relative to your purchasing power, otherwise unobtainable? (this of course would vary for each collector) 3. For a given card, you would rather have an A card than something that is really creased up or in some way damaged? Sometimes I think if a card has been damaged by a collector years ago but the particular damage still merits a numeric grade, is that any worse than a collector over the years doing something to his card that merits it landing in an A holder? As long as there was no intent to deceive, I might not care, especially if it was a rare/expensive card that I otherwise couldn't have or otherwise couldn't have such a nice copy. Once it's in the A holder, everyone knows and the risk of deception is past.

Anyway, really neat stuff! I love seeing what you all have in your collections.

Also 4- This particular card (or back) doesn't come in any other grade besides Authentic.
