Opinions on my T206 Raymond American Beauty

[White Borders]

bottom right corner looks weak

centering (L-to-R) is way off

looks like registration on the front might be off a bit

really need to supply decent scans when seeking this kind of forum feedback ... might want to invest in a decent scanner that uses CCD technology

Best Regards and Happy Collecting

Can someone recommend a good brand/model scanner for the above purposes?

Sorry to hijack your thread Wazoo. Nice looking card no matter the grade.

There's been a lot of scanner threads on the forum. You can read thru this: Best Scanner for Graded cards? Or use the search function to find more.

I like my Epson V600. Most important is to get one that uses CCD technology.

Dear Barry,
Thank you!

[mrvster]

sgc is a class act....the cards just "pop" w/ the black background.....

[wazoo]

So true! I love SGC.

Sgc kills cards for centering. That would probably be a PSA 6. You'll learn that each looks for different things when assigning a grade.

A beauty wazoo!!!

enjoy

the "ghost" is prob the off registration.....no worries

[wazoo]

Thank you very much for the feedback. Who knows, maybe I'll have it submitted to PSA, and it will come back as a 5 or something. When I see 4's going for $300 dollars, I want all I can do to increase the grade.

@Tobacco&Gum, no problem haha, I may want to invest in a decent scanner.

@mrvster, thank you once again for sharing you much appreciated knowledge.

Thanx Waz!!

they always look so much better in the sgc holder......your cards a blazer no matter what any tpg grader says....great taste and keep up the good work...

btw....irish denny has a semi cool 2 same name stephens on bst/ has a slight color shift, and not a BIG error, cool little error if u can get cheap enough....

[wazoo]

Oh I know that! I want to transfer over all my PSA cards into SGC holders, the appeal is just amazing! Especially with red backgrounds like the Mcgraw. I'm just worried about the new half grades over at SGC, meaning I will probably have to send in cards a second time, just to get a card increased to a whole grade.

I will take a look! Thank you for letting me know!
