I bought a handful of very nice ones back then, should have bought more. And these were from before toploaders etc.
Most graded between a 5 and 7. I'm sure there were some nicer, but not many.

I also got a few in what Looked to be a small original collection of T cards that literally came in a small paper bag. Same top end on those.
