Look at the m on the back in piedmont, could be ink added or a small gouge in the back, something happened there that I think dropped this to a 1.

That Devlin looks good to me.

Seriously, the grade is appropriate. There is either paste or glue residue on the reverse. SGC kills a card with residue and will not grade it much above the assigned grade.

Default Impossible ... are you saying .....

That graders are capable of Undergrading, or Overgrading a card?

Isn't that what they use to say about some dealers in the early '80's?

The graders were suppose to eliminate that, or something to that effect.

The only difference that I see is ... the graders are great with corners, and sides, BUT some dealers, and collectors are better at Authentications.

Is it possible, that the reason why cards were cheaper during the non grading days ... was because we didn't have a middleman Undergrading, or Overgrading our cards?

Just a thought.

I bought an Emmitt Smith graded a Gem Mint 10 by some grading company i cant remember, and when i received it, it was 70-30 centering at best.. i would have given it a 7 myself.

When I got this back from SGC I was absolutely shocked. I couldn't understand why it should be graded 20 - Fair. Started to look a little closer and there's some paper loss on Mel Harder's shoulder in the white uniform just above his name. I never noticed it before the card was graded.

Default Back residue

As others have said, SGC is particularly specific and harsh - yet relatively consistent - about residue on the back.

This was graded May 2006, and while it holds no candle to John's Devlin (stunner!) it was knocked to the same grade for likely the same reason. The tape residue is only noticeable to the naked eye when tilted to the light - it is much more noticeable in the scan.
