I could understand if it was a 6, or even a 5 or 4 (with the crease), but seems nice enough to me for a 3; maybe a tad generous but at worst a 2.5

This is what I was thinking, it's still a 2-2.5. It's so hard to judge a card in a BVG slab because they often photograph terribly because of the penny sleeve inside and the depth of the holder.

I like to buy BVG simply because many buyers shy away from the photos and the grader.

Beckett has a nice holder--buy it if the price is fair and you want it--i think one of the best Looking T206 Cobb is the bat off version-go for it!--(a solid blue chip card)

Tobacco stains and not bleached may be an accurate grade. But 2.5 sure and no more then 4k. If I were to purchase 3500 and is fair to mention as others have. Good luck

I am not a fan of this much staining.....a little is ok, but this one has a bit too much for me. To each their own though.

Well stated , and yes it's real and probably a "justified "BVG grade.
