Same with cards that have a coupon clipped off. Those are "altered" and should be flipped as "A". What happens then is that all Zeenuts (for example) with the coupon clipped would be "A" graded. That's a very wide aesthetic window of condition, however that's when common sense and actual eye appeal comes into play. If it's a total beater, then that would be very obvious when compared to an "A" card with great eye appeal. Isn't that the way things used to be before all the plastic slabs came about?

yes...I agree. All strip cards should be graded A.
