BGS 9.5 to PSA 10

[crose]

I sent in a 9.5 BGS card before to PSA in the BGS holder and it came back a 10. This was more for my collecting pleasure than an monetary gain the card may have achieved. The card in question was a chrome auto with a 10 centering sub grade and one 9 sub grade can't remember which one though. Maybe I just got lucky.

What if all the subgrades on the BGS 9.5 are 9.5 or higher? I would have to think they would cross to a PSA 10. Correct?

Only reason why I ask is that the 3 cards I have are selling for multiples higher in a PSA 10, compared to the BGS 9.5 case they are currently in.

Subs on the BGS 9.5's are 10 centering, 9.5 edges, 9.5 corners, 9.5 surface.

Anyone ever not had a card cross to a PSA 10 with those subs?

Thanks,
Tony

The subs mean nothing. By far the most important for PSA is the state of the corners, and 9.5 corners, in or out of a holder, could easily go either way. These distinctions between Mint and Gem Mint are, in my opinion, often quite arbitrary.
