I've really been getting into BGS cards lately. I've been buying some and grading some myself.

If the card has a crummy grade (i.e. lower than a 9) it's safe to assume I had it graded myself. Lol. Much like breaking product, I have the worst luck with grading. It's all good though. The cards I grade myself is more about protection and the look of the card in the slab more than the actual grade itself.

Finally got myself one of those NFL Shield cards and got it graded.

Thanks, soccerscrub! I hope you can get one real soon. Hopefully, you're not like me though. Seeing other peoples' NFL Shield cards for their perspective PC's always made me feel like I had a giant hole in my collection for whatever reason (probably jealousy ). Finally getting one does feel great though.

Sweet brother!! i love that look of a 1/1 shield in the slab.. if i had more room i would slab both my sets..
and yes,grading is tough.. not much difference from a 9 to a 9.5 from the naked eye

Wow. That just looks fantastic! I too have yet to get a NFL shield for the Wisco PC. And there's plenty of em out there...grrrrr

Very nice bro and like chi said grading is tuff it's hard to tell by the naked eye on stuff, centering is the hardest to judge IMO

Great card Nine!! I see you are haunted by the same subscore issues that I have. Do I see 3 9.5's and one 8.5 on that??

Anyhow, it's a 1/1, so a 9 is an awesome grade!! Can't wait for you to show off a few more of those in the near future!
