Machine Issue
I may be what happened recently to a T205 Marquard for me. PSA graded the card a PSA 3, but when the slab returned, there was a large piece of paper loss on the maroon colored background and a free floating piece in the slab.
I was told that, especially with the T205 cards due to the surface, that the "vibration" associated with the final slab process has frequently broken paper loose that was not noted by the graders.
I was asked to send the card back in; they removed the card from the holder, payed me for the cost of the card and the grading fee and sent the card back in a card saver. They offered to slab as Authentic, but then I would not be reimbursed the card cost.
This card may have a "flake" inside the slab.
