**POLL** How will this card grade? Graded VG/EX

[John V]

T210 of Larkins, Series 2. This card was listed by the seller on eBay as a T206 with a pretty crappy photo. All I could tell was that the red border appeared to be much nicer than most I've seen, with 4 sharp corners and only one corner chip. Now with the card in hand, and you can see on my so-so scans, there is a minor bend through Larkins, another on the border above his head and another in the upper left corner.
So, on to the poll. How will SGC grade this card? Your comments are encouraged. This should be informative, especially for those of us with limited experience. After I have it graded by SGC, I'll post a follow-up.

Has a shot to receive a 40, but more than likely an Sgc30 would be given.
Attractive card regardless of which grade you receive. Nice pick up........

ps- Whoops, just noticed an Sgc30 isn't one of the choices to choose from.
I'll go with a 40 then.

A 30 should have been a choice but i think it looks nice enough to get a 40, which is what I voted.

Tony,
I wonder if I should change the poll? Most of my T210s are VG and have plenty of chipping, rounded corners, so I figured a VG would be an appropriate minimum. There's that inexperience showing up.

No big deal John. I'd let her run. I'm probably harsher than most when assigning grades. Don't listen to me.

Nice orange bordered T210!

Just looking at the card before I saw the choices, I was debating between a 30 and a 40 and decided to go with 40 due to eye appeal.

30/2 is more likely than the bottom option of your poll. Good luck with the submission.

Remember this? I thought I would bump this thread since the card is on it's way from SGC. Additional comments and votes are welcomed.

I'd say it's on the 30/40 borderline, but considering the overall eye appeal of the card (which I don't think grading companies do enough of) I'd give it a 40.

I am guessing the 3 that voted a 5 and 5.5 work for PSA

Guessing 40/3 as well.......................................

Crappy scan!

congrats on the grade!

Makes sense to me. The card is somewhere between very good and excellent.

Guess it's a "glass half empty" crowd from the poll

I guess it's a good thing there isn't a Net54 grading service or we would have a bunch of unhappy customers!
