Just looking at the PSA population report, only roughly 5000 Polar Bears have been graded by them (less than Old Mill's ), compared to the 50,000+ Piedmonts.

It'd be great if a PB expert could tell us some more about the undervaluation of Polar Bear.

This is a completely random thought, but I'd guess that fewer PBs are graded because people simply aren't sending them in due to the typical stains they have.

The other thought is that Polar Bear has a smaller checklist of 250
Piedmont has aprox 475 across the three Piedmont backs and Old Mill (non SL) has 372
