1911 T206 White Border Christy Mathewson #dark Cap

Image looks great. Decent color but doesn't pop like others I've seen. Corner wear and thin top and bottom borders keep this just below A tier for me.

The flaws of centering and corner wear make nominal impact on visual appeal. I am pleased with this specimen.

Great looking for what I would bet is a lower than deserving grade.

Color, image, centering. This is what you want with a T206. Soft rounded corners for sure but it can be ignored when the rest looks this good.

Top Tier! This card is a great illustration of flaws that exist and impact technical grade, but are very gentle on the real human eye experience.

Pushed down but still nice borders, clean image just a tad light on color

Nice eye appeal here. While there are flaws, they are not significant enough to knock this from the A tier for me.

Talk about mild flaws that really do not hurt the beauty.

Sweet and bright and all things Right. I do not see the blemish I see the greatness

This is very pleasing to me. The few white specks don't nag my eye when taking in the whole card. Centering is close to the sweet spot. There's just nothing that bothers my eye here.
