  1. Looks like I hit a soft spot! Is CSG more likely to give out 9.5 mint+ than the new 10 gem mints? Maybe. I still love CSG and I think their still gonna eventually take over, but as for all of us submitting cards, expect less 10 gem mints and more 9.5 mint+.
  2. This is actually the point I was trying to make. I too appreciated the old CSG system with the 9.5 gem mint and the hard to get 10 pristine. My concern now is that the 9.5 mint+ has taken the place of 9.5 gem mint, and are there going to be enough 10 gem mints now. I totally think that the perfect 10 should be extremely hard to achieve and I do like that CSG is a tough grader. I think this might add to your point on the 3 levels of 10's with the 9.5 mint+ having been added to the new grading system.
  3. CSG is different, they are established in comics and currency. What I see is PSA, who I don't like is #1 in cards. PSA hands out plenty of 10s, I think if CSG would give out just a handful more 10 gem mints, not 10 perfects, they would catch up in a hurry. Don't get me wrong, I am totally for CSG.
  4. Y'all might wanna give out a few more 10 gem mints, your on the cusp of taking over the grading industry but the lack of 10's is what's holding you back.
