I would say the (1956 Topps?) Willie Mays or Roberto Clemente cards shown a couple of years ago with pinholes getting PSA 7s have to be in the discussion, as well as the recent grading by SGC of the T206 Honus Wagner with rounded corners as an SGC 5 EX have to be up there. https://www.net54baseball.com/showth...ghlight=wagner

That's if you don't count the tens of thousands of trimmed cards in number grades just by PSA.

The Dover Connie Mack might be my favorite of the thousands of PSA incompetence or corruption grading jobs

So perhaps SGC needed an Arab to read the lettering and then grade it - perhaps even a Saudi National to award it with a spectacularly incorrect grade. This was nothing more than a dig at the TPG'ers.

Honestly this is probably the correct answer but if you think it got slabbed due to corruption you are a fool.

Mhm. I don’t doubt the truth is that they are simply utterly incompetent.
