The relatively low numbers in high-grade holders seems to indicate that the grading companies are pretty affective at spotting altered cards at this level.

Edited to add: Barely over 1% of T205s graded (not to mention those rejected) made it into PSA 8 or higher slabs. When you consider that probably a higher percentage of the high-grade T205s have been submitted than low-grade (purely for economic reasons), it seems that probably far less than 1% of T205s survive in nm/mt or better. That seems about right. Again, if they were easy to doctor and get past PSA or SGC, the numbers in those slabs would be A LOT higher.
