One little twist. It is safe to assume that when the number is on the same line as the grade, the card was graded pre-half-grades.

However, there are cases where the number is below the text grade, but where the card was only evaluated for grading in the pre-half-grade system. These cards include those that were re-holdered since the half-grades (ie. due to scratches/cracks in the holder), or those where the flip information was corrected after the half-grade system came in. I own a handful of these cards, which I had PSA reholder. The cards were all older grades - under the full point system. I did not pay for a review, and PSA did not provide one. But those cards now look just like the ones graded under the half-grade system.

The number of such cards is likely relatively small in the grand scheme of things.
