Default The long awaited PSA half grade!

Posted By: Eric Brehm

I am with JimB on this one. PSA is not offering to re-evaluate all the cards that are already in holders (although I suppose they would if you asked them to), they are simply offering to refine the numerical grades they have already assigned to particular cards, in order to recognize those that are in the high end of their assigned grade (because of particularly good centering or whatever). As Jim pointed out before, if you have a card graded '7', then it was originally deemed to be in the 7.00-7.99 range. If it is just a whisker shy of getting an '8', then why not label it a 7.5 NM+? On the other hand if it barely qualifies for a '7', I don't see any reason for them to say, "well on second thought it really should have been a high end '6', so we are dropping it to a 6.5." I really don't see a problem with that.
