Bruce that is indeed the question but I am not sure of the answer, at least in all cases. Even if one assumes competence -- which is a big assumption -- certainly a cynic/skeptic could find financial incentives to give a card a numerical grade even if deserves an authentic. And once the card is encased, nobody can ever conclusively prove that they were wrong, as we have seen with the Wagner.

And once you reach the kind of money we are talking about here a healthy dose of skepticism in all matters is warranted IMO, particularly when an outlier shows up.
One the other hand, there has to be a first of anything.

Not the same card, the markings are different, for one thing.
