Just on aesthetics alone, I like the 8 better than the 10. The trapezoid cut (or trim job) is more pronounced on the 10. Sadly someone paid a lot of money for a number rather on the overall merits of the card on it's own.

Looking through the entire thread, there's a lot of 8's and 8.5's getting either 9's and 10's on some 50 to 70 year old cards which should be a red flag in itself. Again, why are all these seemingly pristine cards suddenly surfacing in droves? The old adage "If it's too good to be true..." seems to apply quite nicely in this case.
