I grade it an SGC 05. That said, it's still a great card and I would love to have it. But since SGC doesn't go below 10/1, it's a 10/1.

But if you'd rather take a chance crossing the card over to SGC because, even if you're disappointed with the grade, you prefer to have an SGC 10 than a PSA 1, then great. In that case, I see the merit of crossing that card over to SGC.

However, if you really want a chance at getting a half grade higher, I would try GAI before SGC. I have some GAI 1.5s that would never have been SGC 20s. But, for that card, I doubt there's any more market value in a GAI 1.5 slab than there is in a PSA 1 or SGC 10 slab.
