That's interesting about the SGC half grades. In looking back at the cards I have submitted, there are quite a few .5s in the various lots.

I certainly would've liked getting the grades 'rounded up' to the higher number in the binary choice of (for example) either an SGC 5 or an SGC 6, but it seems to be a more precise way of grading.

If the SGC standards say a card is less than a 6, but decently better than a 5, then it will land in a 5.5 holder. That's the right move.
Giving it 'only' a 5 instead would've been a crime against humanity (or against the collecting community, which is same thing)!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
