Guess the Grade and Grader Game

Those appear to be 2 pinholes near the top of the card. It's really hard to tell from the scan. At the very least, it looks like paper loss.

I also see 2 light vertical creases at the bottom of the card.

IMO, it shouldn't have graded any higher than a 1.5.

Yes. Pinholes, paperloss and wrinkles. The lesson here is grade the card and not the grade.

Do you own this card and/or did you get it graded? Just curious....

I bought it from an honest dealer who had noted the pinholes. It is hard to see from the scans but the case was not tampered with at all.
