Had a different issue with SGC but still an issue. All of my graded cards are in SGC slabs and I bought a 1921 Koester Bread of my Great Great uncle Elmer Miller in a PSA slab. Wanting uniformity in the collection, I cracked it out and submitted it to SGC thinking they would call it a 1921 Koester Bread. They slabbed it alright and called it a 1922 W575-1 card. I definitely was less than pleased as cards produced in 1921 all have the position designation of CF for these cards. When called and asked about why, the response was that W575-1 cards and Koester Bread cards appear identicle and unless there was clear evidence to the contrary, they will always call these cards 1922 W575-1 cards. Answer was clearly a pat answer and if you research Koester Bread, an inaccurate answer. Do not know if it would have made a difference but If I had submitted it in the PSA holder that called it Koester Bread, maybe they might have labeled it correctly as Koester Bread. On this issue SGC is clearly inconsistent.
