I'm shipping a group from Vermont on Monday as well, it will be interesting to see how close they come back in terms of days. I wish I had done the same thing you did but mine have been packaged since Thursday and I chose not to send them over Xmas weekend as I thought they would just sit somehere!

Thanks for the opportunity for a free Andrew Jackson! You could just send the winnings to me now but I won't get too cocky! lol

Peace, Mike

Just got word that my SGC grades are in... and the averages of all submissions were pretty close in some cases, and over quite a bit on a couple.

(Drum Roll please...)



Guess Avg/SGC Actual
51 Bowman Doby 5.1/5.0
57 Topps Lemon 6.5/5.5
80 Topps Henderson 8.1/8.0
60 Topps Kaat 6.5/5.0
51 Redback Kiner 6.7/5.0
48 Leaf Kiner 4.1/3.0
58 Topps AS Musial 6.4/6.5
93 Topps Jeter 8.7/8.5
62 Topps B Williams 4.9/5.0

So, looks like our little crowd-sourcing Net54 grading experiment yielded

Nailed it! - Doby, Henderson, Musial, Jeter and Williams

Respectable - Lemon, Leaf Kiner,

Come ON SGC! - Kaat, Redback Kiner


(I'll be back later with how we can figure out who wins the $20 "closest to the pin" guess the grade... I'll probably ask each submitter to calculate their own points - see value at the original post - and I'll double check the math of the self-reported winner. Sound like a fun way to spend a Friday night??)

Fun experiment - thanks to all who played along!
