I think once you get into the 7-9 range on any card its just about impossible to tell a differance.

dave- hate to dissagree...but i do.

the differences between a 7, an 8, a 9, etc...are subtle, but they are there. the amount of corner wear, edges, image clarity, etc...you can tell the difference. holding a "9" close to your eye...it simply jumps out of the holder at you, such a difference from 7's...

haha, please...


i just have owned a lot of high-grade T206 cards, and you do see very subtle differences, a "nick" here, a "corner touch" there, these minute flaws knock a card down from a 9 to an 8, or from an 8 to a 7.

I agree with Michael on this one: the difference between a 7 and an 8 is significant. I don't believe the difference between an 8 and a 9 is nearly as great.

I used to own this guy, I think Mike might have bought it...

It definitely sold for more than the common 6 grade.

Well I've just "held" a couple of 7's and 8's. I'm sure if you've owned many you get to where its pretty easy to tell....now...about that PSA 10 Michael...can you really tell a difference in it and a 9?

dave- the 10 is stunning...corners, bold clarity, registration, etc. it really looks 3-D. i will be scanning it later this week.
