Default What would it grade today?

In this episode of "what would it grade today"...an e95 honus wagner currently in REA. PSA 3...rounded corners, multiple creases...paper loss? An abomination of a vg 3.

What would this beautiful candy Wagner grade today...from PSA?

IMO depends who the submitter is, but I'm expecting a 1 if that's my raw sub

How in the world can that card grade anything but a '1'? Prolly 5% of the card is missing via the rounded corners.

Serious question here - is there a different grading scale for Pre-war cards vs newer ones? Because if a 1971 Topps was in that condition, does anyone think it would grade better than a '1'?

I think the main factor here is older grade.

Agreed...I'd bet it would be a PSA 1 if I submitted that.

I would say it is still a 3 now depending on who submitted it and how many times they are willing to resubmit it.

There is a modicum of painful truth in your smartass statement.

Really the only right answer.

I voted 2 after looking at the back and it was fairly clean. However, I can think of a few submitters that may still get that 3.

If I was to send, I would assume a 1.5 and take a 2 as a win.

Sadly after seeing a bunch of hyperbolic reaction posts and youtube reactions, I can also believe that many people would send assuming a 4 or 5.

Not to hijack this thread, but this 3 is probably one of the most baffling I've seen...

Wow, it seems I have been under grading my T206's. Maybe I should start sending them in.

Your results may vary.............No back damage and no wrinkles.

This is what I got back recently, the 4's and 5's were also well undergraded.

Maybe the grader's eyes are so used to looking at ultra-modern that when vintage comes in they’re just as critical of them as they are the ultra-modern.

It would be cool if there were specific card grader grading divisions based on the submission era.
