How TPG’s handle surface scratches?
Curious as to thoughts / experiences with how different TPG’s handle surface scratching?
I have (one example, anyway) a raw 1963 Topps card that I think is solidly in the VG-EX+ range. It has a light surface scratch maybe an inch + long in the background that yeah, it’s there if you are paying attention - but it does not detract horribly from the overall eye-appeal of an otherwise nicely centered and brightly colored mid-grade card. If the card is otherwise an easy PSA 5 or 4, does it stay a 4 with a noticeable but not horrible scratch, or is it downgraded worse? I don’t know whether to even speculate with PSA anymore. I have seen older PSA slabs with not a scratch but other things more like a surface gouge (but less noticeable) and the card still got a PSA 5.
Will rustle up a pic if I can here in a few...thanks.
