T206 Bill Sweeney Missing Red Ink - Won't Grade?
Does anyone know why this card isn't being graded anymore? I contacted PSA and SGC but they wouldn't really tell me why they stop grading this card.
Thanks for any insight. -TK

I believe they both stopped grading all missing red cards because they can't reliably tell why the red is missing (options: the red layer really wasn't printed or it was printed and is now missing due to sun/chemicals/glue).

You would think TPG's could tell if a card is faded or missing ink with whatever technology they use today. Even if the technology is nothing more than a 10x-50x loupe and their knowledge.

I used to love.....
missing magentas......I owed at least a dozen or so.....even the Sweeney...
they are extremely tough to differentiate..... my theory on a lot of them are legit, some are faded.....unfortunately, they have drummed up so much uncertainty, that everyone has become more "skittish" to identify one..... the verdict is still out on them

TPG are also more wary, nowadays, of grading cards that have stamped backs (and rightfully so)....Most are good but many have been reprinted/faked.
