Is this a paid promotion?

No. Just showing what a grading company can do with expert graders.
BTW, except for Burdick already saying these were put out by Blanke Wenneker (Nadja Caramels) I would suggest a case could be made to call these E104 Swifts. In my experience there are far more Swift Cards than Nadjas....

Cool article, Leon. Those cards look nice in the slabs too.

I know I've seen swift stamps on other issues too but I can't place it right now.

I like that CSG uses the plastic sleeve insert. It adds valuable protection for the cards when I'm cracking them out of their slabs to send them to another grading comapany. It helps ensure that I can flip the cards for a profit after they are re-slabbed into a more collectible holder.

I agree, CGC has demonstrated time and again that they are more than willing to put in the time and independent research needed to identify the more obscure issues and variations. I cannot say the same thing for PSA, SGC or Beckett these days. Things might have been different in the past but we are now in the present.

This is definitely the Andy Broome factor because he did that too at Beckett. I have found SGC to be very reasonable in being willing to research obscurities too. PSA is not the least bit flexible to the average submitter.

Anyway, count me in as someone who likes what CSG is and has been doing.
