Just an FYI - BVG actually does Authentic and Authentic-Altered differently. Authentic usually refers to a card that a person chooses to be Authenticated only without the numerical grade. However, it can also refer to strip cards or other hand cut cards that are too small to get a grade. But any card that is trimmed, colored, etc. is marked as Authentic-Altered. I have used them several times to slab lower grade cards as Authentic that I didn't want numerical grades on. I also use it on modern non sport autographs where the grade is under a 9 and I just want the card authenticated.
