2020 • SGC 20 cert# 1389150-001 • BlowOut →
*This alteration is not an easy notice due to the blurred SGC images.
Card was purchased by whitman111 (Gary Moser) as a SGC-1.5 from seller pepto23 for $499.00 on August 28, 2017. Worthpoint link: WorthPoint →
Same card was sold by PWCC as a PSA-3 on Nov. 08, 2018. PWCC Marketplace link: PWCC →
It's too hard to tell if anything else was done besides a very slight trim on the right edge which sharpened the corners. I can see how this may not be caught by a grader because it is so slight. Although I could see it by eye, I was able to confirm the trim by blowing up a portion of the left back which included the left edge and a whole word of type. I marked on a piece of paper the width from the edge to the right edge of the letter 'd' on the word 'land' (as shown). The center points are different on both images.
I found several other high-end cards including a 1957 Unitas and a 1955 Clemente but couldn't see what changed on the cards in order to receive a bump in grade. The Unitas had a stain removed from the back but the grade stayed the same from a SGC-6 to a PSA-6. There was more than likely a monetary gain since both were sold by PWCC.
