Low grade cards that you like just as much as mid-grade:

[Luke]

I've been spending a lot of time lately enjoying the cards I own, which I don't do enough. I wanted an excuse to show some of my favorite cards.

This thread is for posting your favorite low grade cards that have great eye appeal, or you have a sentimental attachment to.

You have to love the card to post it here. If you ever plan to upgrade it, then you don't love it enough, and can't post it

The cards I'm posting are all from my favorite set, E95. These beauties are all crease-free and look like 5's or better in my opinion.
-Lord has a tiny spot of paper-loss on the bottom right of the back
-Wiltse has caramel stains, which don't bother me at all
-Doyle has a little dot of glue residue on the back

Wow; those are phenomenal examples. I would prefer those to less attractive specimens in more expensive holders in a blink.

I collect the same way; here are 11 cards with the lowly average grade of the group being "2."

Nice Mantle!! Probably the best looking "low grade" Mantle out there! I just picked this one up. I think it looks pretty darn good for a '2'....

I agree, especially considering it actually has the upper boarder when it seems the majority don't. Nice card!

One for your E95's (no longer mine)


and one of my all-time favorites ... only low "technically"
