Maybe the scan is just hitting the perfectly? I do buy/sell a fair share of cards and have been noticing an increase of cards appear to be "pressed" like a comic. The creases that are pressed out are still visible, but you really, really have to look closely and get it under the right light to catch it -- maybe that's what's happening here? Grader sees the card in hand and it appears clean, but then when it is scanned the issues are highlighted as the "right light" hit it

Respectfully, No they can’t be that bad of graders, nah SGC is better then that Scott and Dave are Sharp as Tact’s...Possibly the person who slabs the card put the wrong flip in the slab accidentally and someone may have a one that is or an authentic card but should really be a 5.

Could that be a possibility ?

Better guess than they missed four creases and a trim job, I think.

The crazy thing is even if they missed the creases and the edges, they're still not giving it a 5 with those corners.

I think they either printed the wrong label by accident, or someone on the inside's bank account just got bigger.

Yup, seems likely to be a mechanical error.

Are you saying the Paige was a deliberate overgrade as the Wagner seems to have been?

If you knew show subbed it, I'll bet you'd understand the grade.

Could be a simple labeling switch mistake. I just had these two cards graded by them and could see where if they were grading multiple identical cards, labels could be switched. I sent a couple of T218’s one time that they put the wrong labels on the wrong golfers. Had to send that back to get it corrected.

This seems like the simplest, and most likely answer. Unfortunately SGC doesn't use up their cert numbers sequentially, so it's not as easy as checking the #s on either side of this one.
