Default This looks much better than a 5!

Wow, this is the best looking 5 I've seen in a 14 CJ! Would love to see any better examples. Show yours?

I would guess the person that submitted the card asked that it be graded with "no qualifiers". PSA then decided it was a PSA 7, but since it is OC they downgraded it to a PSA 5.

That is a very nice looking 5. I wonder if the card was downgraded for centering issues. But I have seen worse graded better.

I doubt it's the centering. What's that under the N in Nationals?

Agreed. It has to be something else. Surface wrinkle?

It looks like it! Pretty easy to miss on the scan though!

And good work by whoever did it. Good thing we don't know any people like that, eh?

Their response will be if someone has an issue with a card they can submit it for review.

That's a lot of work and expense for a one grade bump (if that is the same card).

Not the same card. The registration is different.
