Another Grading Experience

[ullmandds]

I just got these back indirectly from SGC...a friend sent them in with his submission for me. I'm a bit disappointed with the way these 3 graded. Guesses?

[Rhotchkiss]

Don’t know the grades but on the type 3 fact 8 overprint, who cares the grade; whoever it is, there can’t be many of them. Would love to see the front

I know...I've never seen another...and after just looking at it under a loupe there are a bunch of creases...the WAJO perplexes me the most.

I DO like the new SGC holders!

What is the difference between the new and old holders?

I say 2 on Donlon, a 4 on WaJo, and a 1.5 on Wags....

My guess, Donlin is Authentic, Wojo is 1.5 and Wagner is 1.

You guys are all over the board!!!!

[chalupacollects]

My guess 1 on Donlin, Authentic on Wags and 3 on Wajo...

[Orioles1954]

Donlin SGC 20
Wagner SGC 10
Johnson SGC 50

[vintagetoppsguy]

Donlin 1.5
Wagner and Johnson Authentic

[A2000]

Donlan 1, others authentic.

[Stonepony]

1.5, 3, 1.5

[Luke]

1.5 , 1.5, 1

[rhettyeakley]

Donlin 2
Walter Johnson 2 (warping/stain on back)
Wagner 1.5 or Authentic

[Bliggity]

Donlin 20
WaJo 35
Wagner 20

ETA oh right, new scale. 1.5, 2.5, 1.5.

[RedsFan1941]

it's like Tuesday Night Trivia, except you know there will be an actual answer

[Rhotchkiss]

T213-3: 20
Wajo: 35
Wags: 25

[robertsmithnocure]

Donlin 2
Johnson 2
Wagner 1.5

[ullmandds]

Well...good guesses everyone...like throwing darts at a dartboard blindfolded!!!!!

Chalupa was closest...the grades are as follows:

donlin 1.5
wajo 3
wags A

[Throttlesteer]

Honestly, they seem pretty accurate

[Rookiemonster]

1
3 st Wajo
2

I guess I could see the other two, but that Wajo is sharp. Looks like they hit the stains pretty hard, because the cardboard looks like it could be a 5 on a good day (keeping in mind we are judging off a scan). I would have guessed a 4. Despite the two creases, I had the Donlin pegged at a 2. Nice cards anyway.

[boneheadandrube]

Those seem right to me? I've been submitting pre war to SGC monthy for a few years, there's a noticeable difference in expectations when you are just buying SGC cards from a variety of their grading years/history as opposed to regularly having cards graded. It gives you a better idea of what to expect. I'll bet there is some very small surface loss on the back of Wajo from coming out of a scrapbook.

I see your point...and I think you're right. I hardly ever submit cards to TPG'ers...so I have little experience...additionally I believe you are right about the WAJO...there appears to be surface loss on the back.

Based on the majority of responses though...it seems most on here don't have much of a clue about how TPG'ers grade...myself included.

I think Wags should have received a # as it's just worn...and had WAJO received any higher...I'd have been happy!!!!!

[Sean]

I thought that you would be lucky to get a 2 on Donlin, with those creases. But Ryan is right, all that matters is that Factory 8 overprint. Great card.

[Throttlesteer]

There are three experiences when submitting a card to a TPG:

1. The grade you hope to receive
2. The grade you received
3. The grade you wished you had received.

1 and 3 aren't always the same.

I had guessed

Donlan - 1
Wajo - 2.5
Wags - A

The front is the Donlin.

When I started this thread I was having technological issues and only the back scan first was posted.
