Here is a better one....

Note: here is the eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MICKEY-MANTL...MAAOSw0fhXmBNg From the Ebay link you can clearly see some glaring issues! Hint, both bottom corners and the obvious tilt to the card! Tell me all the things you see wrong with this "freshly graded" card. So much for tougher standards! This card SCREAMS PSA 7 big time. Unbelievable!  Peace, Mike Last edited by vthobby; 08-30-2016 at 11:09 AM.

I still think the Clemente is not out of place in a PSA 9 holder, but I agree with you on the Mantle. I, too, was thinking a PSA 7. As mentioned earlier though, this card could have originally been graded 5-10 years ago (or more) and was sent for a re-holder. Can't really say it was 'freshly graded' without knowing for sure. PSA should put the date that it was graded in their certification verification information. It wouldn't be very hard to do at all.

 It either slipped through or someone is smoking it. And what IS that on the right border of the card on the back (the bottom of the holder, but right side orange border of the card itself)?

Good points....
David, good point on re-holder, I had not thought of that but it makes sense if it was graded a long time ago.
Taylor, I was thinking the same thing! It almost appears as a hairline crease but no way of telling unless it was "in hand". It is something though and very noticeable! Thanks! Mike PS You need to use Ebay's photo to look close at the 2 bottom corners! Oh my!!

Actually, since the card number is around 25,000,000, it was recently graded. My major concern with the Clemente getting a 9 is actually the back top border has a large blue mark or print defect. It should have gotten a 9(PD), IMO.

Personally, my thought is that card was slipped in a 9 holder. Always a possibility I guess?
