This card was purchased by Gary Moser's whitman111 eBay ID as a PSA 6 and reemerged as a PSA 8 bearing a PWCC Premium Quality sticker. The top two corners were noticeably sharpened by the card doctor, as you can see in the detailed image of the top edges below. I consulted with a longtime dealer who believes the corners were lightly pressed to expand them and then filed to a point. Regardless of the method of the doctor, this is fraud.
Please note: This card was sold as a PSA 8 a second time by PWCC on 3/13/2019. It is from that auction that I took the PSA 8 scans due to their higher quality.
