指定のオプション
特定の状況では、CSGは、信頼性および/または変更に基づいてカードに指定を割り当てます。必ずオーダー時にご指定する必要があります
AUTHENTIC
A submitter can request that CSG print “Authentic” in the grade box instead of a numeric grade as long as the card is authentic and not altered. The Authentic designation will also be used if a card is below the minimum size requirements.
Authentic Altered
CSG will print Authentic Altered in the grade box if a card is authentic but has been altered. Examples of alterations include recoloring and trimming.
サインのグレード
サインは、ハーフグレードなしで5から10のスケールで評価されます。以下は、CSGのサインの評価基準です。
10
A boldly signed autograph that appears near perfect to the naked eye. Under normal viewing, the signature is an aesthetically pleasing autograph. A light streak in the signature stroke is acceptable.
9
An autograph that is also pleasing to the eye but has a slight imperfection. Two light streaks are acceptable if they are the only imperfections. One of the following imperfections are allowed: minor splattering of the ink, very minor scratching in the ink or slight variance in the boldness of the signature. The signature may run off of the card and/or the sticker. Any very slight amounts of ink found in other places of the card such as spots of ink on the reverse are also allowed.
8
A signature that is solid and pleasing to the eye but may exhibit more noticeable defects that affect the aesthetics of the autograph such as light bleeding of one of the letters, a more evident skip in the signature, heavier streaking, visible yellowing or a signature that has begun to fade evenly or is lightly smeared. The signature may run off the card and/or sticker in more than one area.
7
Multiple flaws are evident such as noticeable yellowing throughout the signature, portions of smeared ink or even fading to the entire signature. Up to 20% of the signature may be missing, when referring to a sticker/cut autograph. A portion of the signature may run off the card or may bleed onto the edge in three or more areas.
6
The signature is still complete but heavy flaws are easily visible and highly distracting. These flaws include significantly smeared ink on multiple areas of the autograph, considerably heavy skipping or bleeding of the autograph or substantial yellowing or fading of the entire signature. Up to 35% of the signature may be missing, when referring to a sticker/cut autograph. Portions of the signature may run off the card or may bleed onto the edge.
5
Aging of the signature has become evident as it is no longer bold and exhibits heavy flaws that take away from the overall eye appeal. The entire signature is still visible to the naked eye, but it is subject to massive fading and yellowing, smeared ink or blemishes throughout that distract from the autograph. Up to 50% of the signature may be missing when referring to a sticker/cut autograph. Several letters of the signature may be missing entirely as they have run off the card or bled onto the edge.
