And I am in a minority, though some others feel this way too, but I think the PSA 8 Wagner should have "handcut" on the flip also. However, to be very honest, if I owned it today I wouldn't be hurrying to ask PSA to do it.
Totally agree with you. It's a shame that the most iconic card in the hobby has been slabbed NM/MT by the leading TPG company in the hobby, when it is fairly evident and a general consensus that the card has been trimmed and honestly should not be worthy of a numeric grade based on PSA's own standards. I guess I should clarify with you Leon, do you believe the card should retain the numeric grade of 8 with the word "trimmed' on the flip or do you believe it should be labeled Authentic? I believe the latter is more appropriate for the record.
