Default Curious about an SGC grade

Don’t think I’m outing an auction here, as it is a BIN. But I know from experience that SGC will not grade a card with a rubber stamping on the back any higher than a 30, no matter if the rest of the card is mint. So how does a card with a ghost image on the back get a 60? Any explanation is appreciated. Thanks.

That is an awesome card, I love the ghosts when they are strong impressions of the image like this.

Ok, someone on the board will soon tell us who the ghost image is.

That price tag seems a bit optimistic.

Ghosting is treated differently from a rubber stamp imprint, as it occurred at the factory, not afterward.

I have never seen a T206 with a back on both sides before, and the only way we can know this is a Becker card is by the crisp ghosting. Very cool!

Not sure now to answer other than the obvious. A back stamp and ghost image aren't the same thing. And a stamp is added by someone after the card was made. The ghost image was printed at the factory.

It's just turned around in the holder, they used to do this by request if you wanted to show a special back.
