I think PSA radically changed the way they grade CJ's as before they didn't downgrade cards for caramel stains. Nowadays they automatically downgrade by 2 grades anything with staining. This combined with a tougher overall standard you can see older CJ's with 2-4 grades higher. I've seen hundreds of examples to base this opinion on.

P.S. Geoff if you want to get rid of any of your 14's let me know! :-)
