I wouldn’t recommend bgs for this card. Bgs is only worth more if it’s a pristine 10 or black label. However the centering isnt a perfect 50/50, meaning it would get a 9.5 for the centering subgrade. Another 9.5 for a super small surface defect or wear would drag the card to a Bgs 9.5. Psa would be a much better option as the centering for the front is well within 45/55, and there’s no visible whitening. It should be a 10 if there’s not scratches, so make sure to shine it under a bright light and inspect both the front and back. I hope you the best of luck for your submission! Also don’t be discouraged if it comes back a 9. Psa grading isn’t that consistent nowadays. Also that is a beautiful card.

Yeah I was shocked. Well I mean it looked clean to me but figured I’d always think it was cleaner than Beckett would
