Craig,
Back in the previous ownership days, I submitted several OJs to SGC that were either pretty trashed, skinned or rebacked. I knew the cards were altered or in such bad shape they wouldn't receive numerical grades so I requested them be slabbed a "A" (authentic) and that it would be understood that a numerical grade was not possible for the card. My request included the same reason you mention, preservation. They were good about it and slabbed them with an A grade. And yet they still provide numerical grades to cards that have had part of the bottom portion of the card removed ![]()

Is it a necessity to grade these?

If you collect cards, you don’t need to pay so much for a holder that will keep them safe. They are fine as is.
If you collect and sell slabs, sell the skinned cards and buy slabbable cards, or alter them to try and get into a slab. Bonus points if the rebacking is snuck by and you hit a number grade instead of an A. |
