How would this card transition to PSA

[T_Hamilton]

Got this in the REA last year... would love thoughts on how it would transition to PSA. I assume it would be a PSA 1? my concern is it getting a PSA Authentic tag. Also, anyone have any thoughts on PSA vs. SGC for this... only reason I want it in PSA is cause the red slab looks so nice with the CJ backs.

Appreciate any input. Thank you.

Taylor- My opinion is that if you submit it encapsulated, PSA will grade it an A. You're going to have to crack it and then submit....

I agree. Can't you ask for a min of 1 for crossover?

I like this... how does it work exactly? I send it in the SGC holder, they review and if they say its a 1 they will break the SGC case, extract the card and reslab in a PSA 1?

Yes, it's called a crossover submission. If they wouldn't give it a 1, they mail it back to you in the SGC slab.

This is what I would do. Personally, I don't see any reason PSA wouldn't give it a "1". Then again, I have been mistaken before

Just make sure you indicate on the submission form, that you want them to break it out of the SGC slab only if they give it a numerical grade.

I personally wouldn't worry about it. It you'd rather it be in a PSA holder for aesthetics- go for it. It really doesn't matter if they grade it a 1 or " A". It's problems are obvious and quite evident to any future buyer. It's a nice card irregardless if its a 1 or authentic- IMO
