All cards in all conditions are susceptible to alterations. Altered cards are far from limited to high grade or more expensive cards, as one poster suggests. Assigning a value on a card is up to the submitter. I am not sure PSA takes the time to verify if cards being submitted are valued properly. Further you cannot establish a grading tier based on condition.

Since everything is entered into a computer there should be software that alerts a grader to cards submitted which are 1)worth more than the stated grading tier and 2)more prone to alteration. It would be nice to think that the more expensive the card the more it is scrutinized but that is not going to happen in all cases.

As to this Doyle card a simple cert check will demonstrate this card was placed in the lowest tier grading service where the most inexperienced graders work. Not making an excuse as PSA, upon the recent review of the card from EX to EXMT, could have taken it off of the market but PSA does not make mistakes, just ask them. Once they have graded a card it is 100% legit otherwise they could not offer the ½ point review where they guarantee a card goes up or it remains unchanged.
