Judge DredI'm pretty sure the mark qualifier was for the writing on the back of the card. I've got a few cards similar to this. They all have the MK qualifier because of the back. What I don't get is that PSA (and SGC for that matter) will cremate an OJ with a little glue residue on the back. Also, I found that it depends on what day of the week it might be, what is the alignment of the moon and stars to "Ork", etc. I've got PSA graded cards with glue residue that have been graded 5 and 6. I had quite a few OJs sent to PSA at one time and none had a qualifier because of the glue residue (they got brutalized on the grade) but if the card had a pencil mark the MK qualifier was added. If it had a pencil mark on a back with glue residue then it really got smashed.
The team (I'm assuming Denver) name appears to be scrawled off of the card in the auction listed and to me that is a major flaw (no qualifier). I wouldn't call it just a scratch. I see it as defaced. That's just my opinion though.
