It's always difficult to estimate an AUT value without scans
 

I was looking at E90-1 Young (Boston) cards recently as I have a new found interest in them. I was noting these two AUT cards and how different they look. I think at the lower end of the scale there can be a ton of disparity. I always sigh when I hear someone mention a value in lower grade without any caveats on condition. They really can vary greatly.

I can see why the first got deemed Authentic, but what do you think happened in the second case? I can't tell automatically that it's trimmed or recolored, so I wasn't sure what got it the grade it ended up with. What is your guess?

I would say recolored judging by the vividness and also the little streaks of red ink on the left border of the card. Hard to say though.

Leon, if you're looking for E90-1 Young cards in AUTH do I ever have some trade bait for you! Check out this fine specimen.
