I think it's a unique piece in this state. There are so many whole Wagners, this one is unique in its own unusual way.

However, if one of these hack jobs got a hold of it and botched the restoration to where it was obvious, then I'd want no part of it and would just rather have it as it currently sits. Although, with this particular copy, there is also a significant value aspect tied up in the fact that this was the 2nd card PSA ever graded. Hate them or don't, the fact that this is serial #00000002 is meaningful and definitely adds value.
