That issue is nearly impossible to get centered. For an SGC 84, the centering criteria can be as low as 75% - 25%. Anyone have a pixel counter? Even if it is not 75/25, that particular issue may have a slight exemption?

It is a myth that SGC centering standards are less stringent that PSA's. Just look at the grading scale descriptions. It was true when SGC first started. At that time, they did not even have centering tolerances listed in their grading scale. However, that was changed several years ago.

I do think the black insert makes poor centering jump out. Meaning a 70/30 card in an SGC holder will visually appear less centered than a 70/30 card in a PSA holder.
