E95 Plank--PWCC auction

im starting to agree that this "a" was likely not drawn in...maybe a stamp...or who knows maybe some form of variation?

also...I'm not so versed with this particular card to have noticed the "A" shouldn't be there at first glance...I had to look at comparables.

It does look like a stamp, and that is why the card should have a qualifier.
Just hope the "winner" of that card reads this thread and gets his/her money back.

There appears to be something (ink or whatever) in the same color above and to the left of the letter A. I don't think the factory printed it that way.

The card does look nicer than a 3, assuming there are no faint creases or anything we can't see in the scans.

Maybe it was submitted as a "no qualifier" card, so instead of getting a PSA 5 (MK), it got a PSA 3?

I probably would've graded it a 4, but wouldn't be the ugliest 5 I've ever seen by any stretch.

I suppose it's plausible, but I tend to think PSA would not give that card a 5 based on the corners.

I didn't think you could request "no qualifiers" on cards with marks?

Stamp +1

Ah, not sure, so you certainly could be right....

I thought - at least at some point in the past - that there was an option to have the card graded without a qualifier. Here's another example below, with a pencil mark on the right border:
