Most likely you would need the Hubbell Telescope to tell the difference between the two.

Dan, that's not a noob question at all.
It's really a racket, if you ask me. If you could take the BGS 10 and a BGS 9.5 with all 9.5 subs out of the slabs, set them side by side, and ask even the most discerning baseball card enthusiast which was better, they couldn't tell the difference without high magnification. The 10 grade may carry a premium, but it's not worth the absurd amount of markup. A 9.5 with all 9.5/10 subs is every bit as nice, and much more affordable. To me, somebody that spends that much on a BGS 10 is doing the "hey, look at how much money I can blow based on somebody else's opinion" thing. Congratulations on spending an extra $800 on your card because the left border is 1/32nd of an inch thicker than the exact same card with a 9.5 grade! You're a master of the universe!!!!!
