For me centering is as important as focus/registry. The two combined present the best IMO. Corner wear that is even doesn't distract much. I won this at the recent REA auction and to me this is the perfect "affordable" card of a tough rookie.

Funny, I’d give up a little centering to have sharp corners. Hate rounded corners. To each his own as they say.

Beautiful card. Congrats. That focus on a 51B Mantle is quite rare and special. At a casual viewing distance I also do not notice corner wear; what I notice is image quality and centering. I would prefer to look at that card in a wall case than a blurry PSA 7. Tangentially, a high grade card stands a good chance of having been "worked," in my opinion, and likely the most common thing worked is a corner.

Duncan great card! I'd take yours any day over a higher graded OC!
