I have a question that I've been wondering about for a while, figured this would be a good place to ask. I've been picking up a handful of cards from 1911 and before lately that are graded by PSA or SGC. I've stayed away from the cards graded 'Authentic' up to this point assuming there must be a reason they don't get a grade, but when I'm picking up cards graded 1, 2 or 3 anyways I guess it doesn't matter. Are they mostly graded Authentic because the person thought that looked better than a low grade or is there another thought process to that? Do any of you pick up or stay away from Authentic grades?

Sometimes someone might want to get it in Authentic grade is if they know it's trimmed or altered....therefore it wouldn't get a numerical grade. Doesn't mean anything labeled Authentic is bad, that's just one reason why it may be like that.

Love the Diamond Stars! I'll never complete it, but I enjoy picking up a card now and then. This one arrived today.
