Part of a very inconsistent 5 page submission, but I did get my first ever 10. Jim

Jim,

Congratulations. Did you have a good idea that it would be a 10 before submitting?

I never send anything in expecting a 10 or even a 9. I had quite a few really nice 62's and received a bunch of 9's last month including an Abel. To me the first one was the nicer of the 2 but this one got a 10. I usually know the grade I will get 99% of the time. Once or twice a year I will have a submission that puzzles me, this is definetly one of them. Cards I sent in for 7's got 8's. Cards I sent in for 8's got 5's?!? The 6's are because of centering, it was either 6 or 8oc so I take the 6. This is just one sheet from a bigger submission and every sheet threw me for a loop. I don't know if they do it on purpose some times because I will resubmit most of the grades I don't agree with and the next grader will agree with me. Jim.

Congrats Jim

A Partly Riveting, Interesting Litany For Only One Leon

That's awesome, Jim! I've only received one 9 on a vintage submission, and I'm not even sure if '68 OPC even qualifies as vintage.
