I originally thought I would be doing my Diamond Stars set in nothing less than PSA 6...until I realized that there seemed to be far more PSA 5s that were nicely centered and had a better eye appeal than the PSA 6s I was limiting myself to...now that I'm open to 5s, I have more selection, can be more picky and have a few extra bucks to throw at the project...just my $.02...

Default In my opinion

In my opinion the number assigned by PSA or any other grading service is just an opinion. Usually formed after only a very brief time with it. It's nice to have them in a case protected. Other than that ignore the number and pic up a pretty card when it crosses your path.

I certainly am about the eye appeal of it, when cards like this can get the same technical grade as the Marquard right above (no offense to you, Mikehealer!)....
