π π¨π¦π§ πͺππ§ππ: This Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card has reportedly been submitted for grading NINE times over the past year by Market Movers producing significantly different results across multiple companies. The same card has received the following designations: β’ Beckett (BGS) β 9.5 β’ Beckett (BGS) β Authentic β Altered β’ PSA β EX-MT 6 β’ PSA β NM-MT 8 β’ SGC β Authentic β Evidence of Trimming β’ SGC β Mint 9 β’ CGC β 9 β’ TAG β Oversized β Do Not Holder β’ Arena Club β NM-MT 8.5 While the exact submission order is unclear, it has been suggested the card initially graded as a BGS 9.5 and later returned from Beckett labeled βAuthentic β Altered.β The wide range of outcomes including altered designations from some companies and Mint-level grades from others highlights the variability that occurs in card grading, including DRASTICALLY different results from the same company when evaluated multiple times. What are your thoughts on the discrepancies between grading companies? And how do you interpret differing results from the same company on separate submissions? This is a great breakdown for collectors to understand grading better and provide some transparency! Iβm extremely Credit - @marketmovers
