Is it good idea to get Vintage cards PSA Graded?

TheNerd · 10-07-2012, 10:09 AM

I have a couple of vintage cards that are stars - from the 50's, but they aren't in great condition (probably poor). Should I get them graded anyway? Do you guys think it's worth it, even if they have some wear and tear on them, just to establish authenticity?

Thanks for the advice!

Nope.......

If they are stars, then yes. If they are commons, then probably not. Personally I like getting vintage stars slabbed for the protection and authentication - not for any increased value due to low grades.

What would be the minimum grade that you guys would expect for it to be worth having a 50s or 60s star card graded?
