Graded question (I'm pretty sure I know this but want to be sure)
In terms of the graded pricing in the OPG, a BCCG 10 would be considered a Gem Mint 9.5 (basically a BGS 9.5) correct?

Technically...but BCCG cards actually sell for considerably less.

It's going into my PC but i was just curious. Maybe I'll send it in to be slabbed BGS. Thank you.

No, I definitely would not count on it being a 9.5. Might be an 8.5. BCCG uses an approximate grade. Its such a bogus thing, I don't know why Beckett created this. Lots of BCCG questions lately

No don't go by the BCCG numerical grade go by the listed condition and match that up you might have a 8.5 or 9 there

if you wanted to compare it as a BGS grade I would do no higher than an 8.5BGS and even then I would be stretching. i really hate that the service level of bccg even exists. it doesnt mean the card can't be a BGS 9.5 the relative value is just hard to compare.
I usually judge them as if they were raw ungraded cards
