JKJoe,
A on the slab does not represent a grade - at least not the numerical type of grade we are generally accustomed to seeing. A, as noted, means the card is authentic (i.e. a real, non-reprint, non-counterfit, period card) but that it is not eligible for a numerical grade - generally due to being, hand cut, trimmed, etc. Since it is not eligible for a numerical grade, I would say an A falls below a 10 in sgc's scale or below a 1 in psa's scale.
