Default Very interesting history on the Wagner psa 8/trim
Posted By: William Heitman

There is an interesting part of the PSA 8 Wagner discussion that usually is ignored. Bruce McNall made his "fortune" in coins. The creator of PSA was also the man who owned PCGS, the coin grading company. The guy who actually graded the Wagner also had a background in coins and was really a relative newcomer to cards. He was at my home shortly before he graded the Wagner, and after, and we debated grading that card. Despite very serious misgivings at that time, he stated to me "We HAVE to grade that card." I understood exactly what he meant.
