Up for your consideration is a very clean EXMT+/NM baseball from my personal collection never before put up for sale. I’ve built this set from hand over the last 5+ years and focused on cards with sharp corners and minimal other wear. I’ve literally scoured thousands of cards at various local and national shows, eBay , other websites, etc and passed on most except ones that fit my picky condition requirements. Over the last couple of years I worked on well-centered cards in particular. Overall, the commons are a grade higher than the stars, and half a grade higher than the high # series cards.
Star Grades: #5 Munson EX+, #20 Jackson EXMT, #26 Blyleven EXMT, #50 McCovey NM, #55 Carlton NM, #100 Rose EX+, #160 Seaver EXMT, #180 Kaline EXMT, #210 Carew NM oc, #300 B Robinson EX, #400 Aaron NM oc, #450 Gibson NM oc, #513 Ryan EX+, #525 Banks NM, #530 Yaz EXMT+, #570 Palmer EXMT, #600 Mays EXMT, #625 Brock EXMT, #630 Clemente NM w/wax front could be wiped off, #640 F Robinson EXMT, #688 Anderson EXMT+, #709 Baker Baylor EMXT was PSA 6, #740 Aparicio EXMT+.
Scans: I scanned cards based around star cards and think the cards surrounding them capture the best/worst of cards in this set. I did not manipulate cards to scan the best ones only in other words. I can provide more if need be.
Overall Condition Estimate:
VGEX+(1%): 2 or 3 vgex cards only
EX (16%): These cards are either noticeably o/c or show modest wear (see list above)
EXMT (45%): The majority of the set, tend to show light edge/corner wear may be a bit o/c
NM (35%): A good chunk of the set, 4 sharp corners with slight wear only, mostly clean edges w/minimal chipping, decent+ or good centering (70/30 or better)
NM-MT or Better (3%). A couple dozen razor sharp pack-fresh centered cards-- a handful of which might be candidates for grading high
Shipping/$: Cards will ship insured priority mail in binder/vinyl pages. Price is
$1275 (updated 4/28)
Scans: My blown-up scans highlight ever little flaw & touch of whiteness.
