What would this 1968 Topps Ryan grade?

Mike, what do you believe the card should grade at?

I really don't know and as I said earlier I am biased. I will go with the consensus of the more objective opinions and say it is a PSA 5. I actually compared it to this PSA 5 in my collection and thought it looked better. Based on the opinions of the Ryan I may have to accept the reality that my Clemente was over graded.

The printing is very nice and the corner wear is not too severe. I'm thinking an easy 5.5, but more likely a 6. The tilt does not affect it enough to knock the grade down. I've seen 8s with more tilt.

+1. Looks like a six to me too.

Its only a number, and the grading number is in the eye of the beholder. Its like abstract art 50 people can see something different

Another vote for a 6.

The corner wear is magnified because of the close up scan.

Nice card.
