I agree Dan, no hand cut cards should have numbers.
The difference here is that the companies admit the strip cards and such are hand cut because that is the only way they could be cut and were supposed to be cut. The T206 issue is supposed to be factory cut and the company is implying that this one is NOT hand cut. A significant difference I think |

For those who are sure it is trimmed:
SGC is standing behind their grading of this card as much as is humanly possible. So if you are sure it is trimmed, SGC must also realize that. Given that scenario, why would they stick their necks out like that? To date, they have allowed PSA to stand alone on a pedestal with their Wagner 8 debacle. Why would SGC take a chance at climbing up (down?) on that pedestal with them? Just curious what your thoughts are.

Not that I am 100% convinced that it is trimmed...nor do I really care as it's not a card I can afford...BUT...has PSA ever really been punished...or taken any kind of hit in any way as a result of their many many bungled grades?
The answer is...NO!!!!! |

Does anyone here think the Green Cobb is legit?

Peter is absolutely right! Thank god someone finally said that. I am for sure not going to be a buyer for the plank, way out of my league, so life goes on....the one that i am interested in is the sgc 84 joe doyle.

100% legit and authentic.
There isn't a soul in the hobby that will state that Green Cobb warrants a numerical grade. But what does that Green Cobb have to do with anything anyway???? |

I recall very well that approx. 12 years ago SGC...."was standing behind their grading"....of the T206 Matty (portrait) card with the Red HINDU back, despite the fact that SGC was told it was an impossible front/back combo....and therefore, a FAKE. Subsequently, SGC relented and removed this "re-fronted" Matty card from circulation. Yes, I'm one of those who is very skeptical of this PIEDMONT Plank having been an original factory cut T206.

Yes, this PIEDMONT Plank is of greater significance than the Matty example I gave. But, my point is not with respect to this Plank vs that Matty. It is that SGC in both cases staked their reputation on the integity of their grading of these cards. And, with the former situation, SGC eventually had to "eat crow". Only time will tell if this Plank stands as is, or will history repeat. TED Z |

Slabbers & Crackers - The Perfect Business Model
If I was going to start a packaging company and knew that 0% of the population would want my product, then I would go broke.
If I was going to start a packaging company and knew that 100% of the population would want my product, then I would package each item once. But if I was going to start a packaging company and knew that 50% of the population would want my product and 50% wouldn't want it, and if I knew there was a resale market for what I was packaging, and if I made the packaging in such a way that it could be removed so that I could repackage the same item time and time again, I would be far better off in the long run. Just a thought hopefully not too far off topic.

Can the Plank be the only other $1M+ card in the hobby? Sounds like a climb up. |

Every collector on this board completely understands that we, the informed, are the minority when it comes to card opinions. Why else would the Cincinnati duo get so much airplay when to us they are obviously scammers? But if you believe the author of 'The Card', even most of the prior owners of the Wagner realized it was trimmed. Would anyone in their right mind buy such a card without doing just a little bit of research? Okay, I repeated myself because you quoted me , but I'm done with this subject - we're all just preaching to the choir at this point.

OT - but WOW. Just received the Goodwin catalog in the mail yesterday!!! Beautiful for those T206 collectors! Better than the 'T206 Collection' book IMHO. Every (authentic) card - in order - displayed in SGC holders with info on each card. Love it....
