SGC Crossover Question for 48 Leaf Jackie

[swarmee]

Before they switched to the black label last year, SGC was known for being fairly lenient on centering. However, recently, they have become much more strict on centering. Therefore, I would leave this one in the PSA holder.

Sounds good, thank you! I may just reholder it then to put in a new label.

Value wise it's probably negligible. I think it would look better in an SGC slab, but that's just me. A very hot card either way.

Thank you! I appreciate it. Sorry for the delay in replying. Take care!

+1. I had an SGC submission back this summer where a '69 Pete Rose that I thought had a chance at a 7 came back a 5. It slowly dawned on me that centering was the only real plausible reason for this. No way SGC was that strict even a few years ago. The T/B centering on the card was maybe 75/25 - well within the standard for at least a 6 with PSA.

I have a 7MC cut that was pretty OC in the front. I wanted it in a Hiller that would only describe the qualities if the card, bot the centering. Sgc called and said they would grade it a 2! Mind you it had all the qualities of a NM card. Sans centering.

Very cool card! I enjoyed a very similar looking example until about a year ago.

Wow what a beauty 6mc!! I may be looking to sell mine but the value of this card seems to still be climbing so who knows.

That’s a beautiful 6mc!! I’m debating on selling mine but the value of this card seems to keep climbing.

Yea seems like SGC tightened up on their centering!
