I personally don't think "authentic" is necessarily a dreaded grade on these things. They were meant to be cut, and who cares whether they were cut on the line or outside of it? I understand the need for grading companies to make the distinction but, as a collector, all that matters is that it's nicely cut out. If they were mine, and I was looking to sell, I'd probably get the rare/high value ones graded along with any that I hoped would get a numerical grade. For the others, it's probably not worth it. I remember getting very little when I sold SGC graded, common 59 Bazookas.
