Let's play a game of guess the grades!

The way SGC used to do the numbering was by order. I think there was a 7 or 8 digit number followed by a -xxx. The -xxx represented a card in the main order number. For example, if the cert number was 1234567-132, then the card was the 132nd card graded from the 1234567 order (and there could have been more after 132). For PSA, I recall them being consecutive numbers. I think one submission I had was about 80-100 cards and the cert numbers were consecutive.

I was going to guess the same grades, but both 3.5's. I guess I don't feel too bad about that assessment!

I don't understand the viewpoint that they ought to both be the same grade. If these two cards were submitted both raw, together, to the same company, there is zero chance of them coming back with the same grade. At any TPG.

For those that were curious the SGC was graded in September 2018.

As Leon mentioned a couple of posts later, in my case I picked the same grade because I suspected that something was awry or that there was a slight misgrading. Since we all know that misgrading happens, there is definitely a greater chance than zero that they could come back that way! Even if two cards are identical or the same card sent in separately at different times to each company.
