Grading Printing Plates

[Rockford]

Is it even worth it? I doubt a printing plate would even get near a 5 in grading but I could be wrong.

I only ask because I have 2 Auto Printing Plates XRC of Al Thornton I'd like to get graded and I would just hate to see them get a terrible grade.

Is it even worth sending anyone of them in? Not just the Thorntons but anyone?

I dont know how well they would grade because it seems like they always have chipping all over them.

if you dont want to see a grade ,just authenticate them instead for preservation.if thats what you had in mind

And how would I go about doing that?



Regardless of the grade, its not like theres 5 or 10,000 out there I have the only one :D

Even if it hits like a 2-6 it's still 1 of a kind

IF you don't have plan to keep permanently in your collection, don't grade that card.

Here is mine(I graded this card for keeping permanently)

no point in grading acard that there is only one of. you have the best one no matter what.

not true grading raises the value of high end cards by a lot. but besides that, never grade a printing plate. its not worth it
