The Fatima Premium came from Grandpa's attic via the last Heritage Auction. (just kidding about the attic part).... I had been wanting one and this one is actually in the upper echelon of conditions I have seen them in. It didn't meet reserve so I made an offer after the auction and it was accepted. I picked it up yesterday and had a nice lunch with Chris Ivy....This Premium is huge....

From the BST, a very nice "1" with paperloss on back @ a tuff '23X of McGraw (anyone got an upgrade?)

Hi Chris W, that Konetchy looks like a strong 4! I suspect that PSA found some tiny glue residue on the back. I've been stung the same way a couple of times.

Thanks! I'm thrilled with it. My favorite cards are the ones that have a tiny flaw like a small bit of paper loss on the back edge or a small wrinkle that drops the card down a couple grades. It's a great way to get awesome looking cards on the cheap. I've looked the card over several times and I have yet to find the issue. Of course I hadn't thought of looking for glue.

I just got this Konetchy in the mail. I spent 15 minutes looking at it last night and can't for the life of me figure out why it is a 2 and not a 4. Oh well. It'll be raw soon enough anyway so it doesn't matter to me. And I got it for a good price so I'm happy.
