Bigfish.... I will send you an email.


Trae --- those auction links you sent have the name of the player on the bottom (not the top)... did you send the wrong links?

They're half top, half bottom, and are not completely visible in the scans. I have larger scans available if you're interested in bidding on the items please let me know. As a tip to you simply search eBay for PSA's with the MC qualifier - they're not always listed as such (ie mine) but MC is the qualifier given by PSA when a card is miscut, and a card cannot have this feature without being miscut so it's a good starting point for you.

thanks for the info Trae.

I will put the 'mc' in my eBay search from time to time.

just a stupid question are these desirable or worth anything more than the normal card.. or is it just a "personal/preference" variation?

Danny,

I don't know if they are any more valuable...
actually probably less valuable due to lower grade(?).

I think the grading companies look at miscuts as bad centering, or in general as a negative.

I am interested more as a personal preference.... because I think they look cool.

I probably should limit my search to HOF'ers or I will go crazy looking.

Regards,
Joe

Danny,

The grades are definitely going to be lower due to the miscut, but there are a number of "mistake" collectors out there who will pay a premium for this type of miscut. Im not one of them, but this is my example:

Josh,

Your Cobb is still the coolest T206 with name on top I have seen so far!

Later,
