Many graded authentic are better then ones graded 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.
On their form you have the choice to just get it graded as Authentic.
Some people just want it known that its not a fake, reprint, etc. Thus they say just code it Authentic, and don't care if its a 1 or 5.
So pretty sure many graded Authentic are in much better shape then ones with grades.
You can go on Ebay and see a near perfect ticket and it will say
authentic not have a 1 2 or 7.
There is no uniform grading in tickets, they just have a seat filler doing the job.
And the purpose of the ticket and ticket stub collecting is the event, and the fact that someone with the ticket saw the event. So you could have a perfectly mint stub go for way more for one that had creases, and the perfect one, never saw the inside of the stadium that day. I'll take the creased one that was there.
