This pete real??

EX 5: Excellent
On PSA EX-5 cards, very minor rounding of the corners is becoming evident. Surface wear or printing defects are more visible. There may be minor chipping on edges. Loss of original gloss will be more apparent. Focus of picture may be slightly out-of-register. Several light scratches may be visible upon close inspection, but do not detract from the appeal of the card. Card may show some off-whiteness of borders. Centering must be 85/15 or better on the front and 90/10 or better on the back.
VG-EX 4: Very Good-Excellent
A PSA VG-EX 4 card's corners may be slightly rounded. Surface wear is noticeable but modest. The card may have light scuffing or light scratches. Some original gloss will be retained. Borders may be slightly off-white. A light crease may be visible. Centering must be 85/15 or better on the front and 90/10 or better on the back.

They also have an OF qualifier for out-of-focus. So I think it may be a 5, but it could be a 5(OF) based on the poor registration. Kind of a gray area as to whether this would be "slightly out-of-register" for a PSA 5; it's pretty distracting compared to normal Rose rookies.

Thanks guys, now the real question which one the blurry one that grades better or the stain on front no blurriness??

[HRBAKER]

They're both low grade, I'd rather have the one I can make out the faces on.

I would expect the blurry one to grade better. The other is a 4(ST) in my opinion, at the most.

The blurry one might grade better, but I'd take the stained one over the blurry one. I can see Pete, and everyone else for that matter, on the stained one. I collect cards for the players, not the borders.
