.. There were no half-grades at P S A for many many years . The grader had to give it a "2" or a "3". Count your blessings on that one.
Us veterans of the grading-is-god era out here , well , we've most of us have given up second-guessing the wide wide world of the older PSA 2, PSA 3, and PSA 4. The graders see things that we peasants do not see , and they have standards that tie their hands. Eye appeal versus that little number up in the corner can give us buyers out here a really good deal sometimes. On these two , ya done good , kid.
Enjoy.
