Default Is the Grading System Broken?

Posted By: Kevin Saucier

"We haven't even talked about rebacked cards which have made it into holders. Many of the thicker cards, such as N28's, have been known to be rebacked with nonbaseball N28's, and often the work has been so skillful that it has escaped detection."



Ah..now this is a skill that separates the men from the boys so to say. If you ever want to freak out, take a look at a rebacked card that has been well made. I have a couple that will be going on diplay with Global. One is a real head turner.

Not to worry, it has a preventive measure built in that most (hopefully all) graders should catch. It can only be see with a loupe though.
