Both cards could technically be 3s, but look totally different. In fact, the front of one would have better eye appeal. But that doesn't mean there's something wrong with either grade.
The appeal of the whole card needs to be considered. Problems on the back should be less weighty than a problem on the front, but it is still part of the card.
