Default How do you feel when you see this in an auction

Nice catch JC.

Elliot, you're right (from the Mile High auction description):

To start with, the card’s front is extremely well centered with outstanding imagery and focus combined with corners that rate between EX/MT and NM! The reason for the significant downgrade to VG is the presence of a small area of ink writing on the reverse of this already blank backed card and also a small barely noticeable wrinkle on the back. While the grading of sports cards is without question the norm of today, I must say that although the technical grade of this card is lowered due to the aforementioned negatives the overall beauty of this incredible rarity rises above its assigned grade and is without question one of, if not the best examples available in the hobby today.

Wrinkle and Ink - GONE!!! Presto, cha ching = now it's worth $7K+ more... wow!!!
