Got this in a couple days ago, when I saw it it looked really clean and now that I have it in hand it actually looks better than I thought. I'm thinking about sending it in for grading at some point, it looks like maybe a 9 to me what you all think.

Centering is going to get you for sure but what grade I don't know.
I'm horrible at guessing grades so I won't even try. Just wanted to wish you luck if you decide to get it graded. You know I'll be pulling for you to get a big number. Big Grin
Hmmm, I would guess its not even 9. Centering is off left to right and then theres the crease and that green dot above his left shoulder which would make the surface grade go down as well. It is still nice for an older card though.
Ask the wife lol didnt she examine all the gold brick cards before the one submission you had?

Thats not a crease it's a scratch on the scanner, no way I would think a creased card would get a 9.
Pssssh, I say send it in. I just sent in a bunch in that BGS submission that I don't expect to grade that well. They are all PC though, so I am just getting them slabbed for protection more than anything. So I guess depends on what your aim is.

It does look pretty nice though!
that is just too complicated brother..postage,the worries..just send it to me to make it easy LOL..
Wink
grade it man,they wont ding you too much for the upper right corner or the slight off-centering
i would send it in...8.5ish is my guess

The top right corner is soft, centering issues. I'd say a 8-8.5
