Default Old judge grading question

Posted By: Judge Dred

I bought the card mostly as a novelty - who the heck would believe something this nice would end up in an SGC10 holder. There are 4 relatively sharp corners, a fairly nice image and lots of GLOSS on the front. The back definitely shows signs of scrap book removal but it appears to be somewhat minimal. You be the judge, look at the back and tell me why this came out as an SGC10. I'm not sure how much memory is alloted for each member but I think I max'd out the image size with the Getzein. I'll post another image of an N172 that was graded SGC30 and you go figure it out.

I guess everyone has a bad day now and then but the only person that had a bad day when the card was graded was John Billingsley. He had a case of N172 cards that were graded SGC20 - SGC30 that were similar to the Getzein. It's a shame that the cards were graded so low because if you saw them in person all you could feel was disgust with the grades and sympathy for John.
