To Grade or Not to Grade: Strasburg

Have this Blue Ref. The edges, corners, and surface all look to be an easy 9.5. Centering is my question, this scan makes it look a little better than it is, as it's probably 60/40 top/bottom and maybe 55/45 or a little better on the sides. Opinions or possibly offers are welcome. Thanks, Brice

There is no doubt in my mind I would sub that. Even if it is a 50% chance, it is worth the risk..

You think it'd have a shot at a 9.5?

Top right corner looks dinged, so I say no....

Absolutely. I have seen 9.5's with centering such as this before.

Corner isn't dinged, my scanner is crappy, it's just the shadow behind it from leaving it in the topholder.

I dont know....

Its a pretty clear scan, and despite the shadowing, it looks dinged pretty clearly. What can you really tell from a front only scan though when considering a grade...

Good luck though!
