Worthy of a PSA Review? What do you guys think?

But between the blue registration issue and the top left corner, you're not getting higher than an 8. Leave it the way it is.

How are you measuring Top/Bottom centering? To the picture frame or to the bottom of the text? Is that how PSA measures it, or are you guessing?

Yeah I know it's been reholdered recently, just not sure if it was sent in for a review.

Using a scan I measured the number of pixels from the frame to the edge of the card on the sides. If I measure from the bottom of the text, it's about the same as the sides, 45/55.

Appreciate you taking a look!

PSA will take your fee and probably not even look at the card. Sadly there is a ton of politics in grading these days; they want to send the message that they are tough— and rejecting even worthy cards en masse conveys that message.

That is an 8.

Agreed. PSA 8s are on par with early PSA 9s now. You would have a VERY tough time getting your Collins bumped.

Sad to hear that its gotten this bad but I can believe it, especially now that things have picked up so much.

Appreciate the advice guys, even if it's not the news I was hoping for

The borders are too large for a 8.5-9.
