Slyde Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Question for anyone with some grading experience: According to the Overstreet grading guide, no "missing pieces" are allowed at even a 5.0 grade. Would those not be considered missing pieces at the top of the cover? TIA...I am really new to grading and am trying to learn... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Thurgood Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 My inclination was a 5.5 for this. I think the top FC problem is not "missing pieces" but "chipping" or "bug chew". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case in point, from the Overstreet grading guide: “NOTE: Certain defects are allowed if other defects are not present.” So a defect that’s typically not allowed at a particular grade may be permissible if a number of other defects are not present.

That's a good explanation, and one it took me a long time here to understand. Added to which, Overstreet and CGC diverge in lots of different areas when you really get your head into CGC grading. They both follow the same standards in very broad strokes, but you can't really use Overstreet criteria to pinpoint a CGC grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
