Ted, try leaving the lid up on your scanner (if you don't already do this).
My Epson is only a couple of years old but if you leave the lid up the
scans come out much clearer especially with SGC and Beckett slabs.

I've scanned with the lid down and the lid up (with and without ambient light in the room). And, below here is the result.
The back of this Donlin card is actually cleaner than this image indicates. If this card was in a PSA holder, the front and
the back images would have been clearer than these images.

It's an 18 year old machine with old technology. One of these days I will replace it.

Anyway, I really appreciate your advice.
