Default Getting back into hobby...help on 1915 CJ?

Hi,
I was an avid collector up until the early 1990s. Got out because I bought some trimmed cards and it really soured me on the hobby (bought from a guy - Fantazia - who I think was sent to jail for this). This was before the graded cards were really big.

Anyway, as the National was a few hour drive from my house, I decided to bring some cards to get graded. One was my 1915 CJ Hal Chase, which I bought in "mint" condition. It graded as a 3.5. Was disappointed, so I showed to a dealer who found a crease when looking at it with a loupe, which I can't really see. He told me I should get it regraded. I'd love some advice. FWIW, I paid $500 for it years ago. Hey...at least it wasn't trimmed. Thanks for your help. By the way, I'm not upset with the dealer...I really don't think he saw the crease either.
